"...I was instantly impressed and motivated to work."
"My family recently moved to this region, which influenced my decision to study in the Netherlands. Halfway through my first year of studies, I can honestly say that I am happy with that decision and that I’ve started to feel at home. I like the atmosphere of the city with all its little streets and the sound of bikes on the cobblestones. That same friendly atmosphere can be felt at the university.
"It was especially the Problem-Based Learning system that really convinced me that I made the right decision. Through the small tutorial groups, the relationship among students and the academic staff is much more personal than I expected, which makes you enjoy going to class. It also helped me overcome my shyness in a professional environment, as it stimulated me to participate more actively in discussions and class work. Everything is so well organised that I was instantly impressed and motivated to work. It really seems to me that Maastricht optimally combines a nice city flair and educational quality in a friendly environment!"
