UM Bachelor’s Open Day well attended
A record number of prospective students flocked to the faculties of Maastricht University on Saturday to visit the biannual Bachelor’s Open Day.
As many as 2422 upcoming students visited the information sessions, keen to learn more about UM bachelor’s programmes, admissions and the much-vaunted Problem-Based Learning model. A large number were escorted by their parents or guardians. A small majority of visitors came from the Netherlands; the others from as many as 63 countries.
As usual, the Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences proved to be the most popular institute. On the other side of the river, International Business and Economics & Business Economics attracted most prospective students: 655.
By comparison, last year's Bachelor's Open Day held on 24 February was attended by 1864 visitors.

We brought together experts Anne Roefs, Gijs Goossens and Mickaël Hiligsmann to talk about obesity and its new miracle cure.
