This is UM!
Maastricht University (UM), the European university of the Netherlands, has nearly 22,000 students and 5,000 staff. We are young, interdisciplinary and socially engaged, which is evident in everything we do. Despite our relatively recent establishment, we have already built a strong reputation through our excellent research and education, and by connecting science with regional, European and global challenges. We rank among the best young universities in the world.
