Universiteit Maastricht

Welcome

Maastricht is a research university located in the Netherlands, only three hours from London by train. Most of our programmes incorporate Problem-Based Learning, an innovative, student-centered method that emphasizes research skills, small tutorial groups and personal attention from instructors.
