Experience Day BSc Global Studies
Welcome to the Experience Day of our bachelor’s programme in Global Studies!
We are happy to welcome you at our Faculty buildings in the beautiful city of Maastricht, so you can really experience what it is like to be a student at the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASoS). During this day we will touch upon every aspect of student life at FASoS, as we believe this is very important for you to ultimately make the decision whether BSc Global Studies and Maastricht University is the best choice for you! You will attend a lecture and participate in a tutorial group. Throughout the day, our advanced students will accompany you and answer all your questions about studying in Maastricht and student life.
