Problem-Based Learning
At Maastricht University, we care not only what you learn but also how you learn. Here, you are part of an interactive and meaningful learning experience called Problem-Based Learning (PBL). Most of your education takes place in groups of 10 to 15 students, so you’re not just a face in a crowded lecture hall.
Learn more about Problem-Based Learning: discover its benefits and see if it's a good fit for you.
