Bachelor's Open Day 8 February 2020

Information sessions

Information sessions start every hour on the hour from 10.00 until 16.00, and usually take 30 minutes. Here, you can find out everything you need to know about the respective programme, participate in discussions, watch demonstrations and take a tour through our labs and classrooms.

There is a break after every information session.

 If you would like to attend a session other than the one you have registered for, please register again. If you register for the second time, your first registration will no longer be valid.

 Please note: the faculties are located in different parts of the city. It will take you around 30 minutes to get from the Randwyck campus (in the east, next to the MUMC) to the inner city faculties with the shuttle bus.

Information fairs

Find out about admission requirements, tuition fees, housing, study and sports facilities, language courses, student life, and job prospects. Each faculty organises an information fair about its bachelor's programme. A similar fair will be held at the Student Services Centre (see below).

Students, staff members and alumni will be at hand to answer your questions about our programmes, the university, and Maastricht as a student city.

Specifically for international students

Are you an international visitor who would like to find out more about studying in Maastricht? At the Student Services Centre you can find an "International Fair" where students from different nationalities can tell you about their experiences of studying and living in Maastricht.

Faculty programmes

  A full overview of all the sessions offered by faculties to present their programmes will be available soon.

Parents’ info sessions

How can you as a parent help your child choose the right programme?

University College Maastricht, the Department of Data Science and Knowledge Engineering, and the Faculty of Law will host a 'Parents' Café'. In addition, some faculties offer special information sessions for parents, covering everything from curricula to Problem-Based Learning, admissions procedures and student life in Maastricht.

Studying in Maastricht

Make sure to sign up for these practical information sessions.
