Maastricht University: from the region, for the region
Maastricht University is proud to be the most international university in the Netherlands. We are grateful for the richness and diversity provided by our international staff, students and study programmes—and the ensuing endless supply of inspiring stories.
We want to share these stories with everyone who carries the province in their heart, be they from Limburg, the Euregion, or otherwise. And with everyone who wants to know why Limburg, of all places, is the right place for a university—because UM is here for you, too.
Here you can find more information on Maastricht University's vision on the discussion on internationalisation of the educational institutes of Limburg.
This page includes the press release: 'Urgent letter to the Minister of Education and the House of Representatives'.
