Student Prizes 2022
Maastricht University celebrates its 47th Dies Natalis on Friday 27 January 2023. Every year, the best master's and bachelor's theses by our students are rewarded during the Dies Natalis celebration. They receive five hundred euros, a certificate and a small gift as a token of appreciation from our Rector Magnificus.
Bachelor's Student Prizes
Nineteen students completed their bachelor's degree in 2022 with a thesis that was labelled excellent by their faculty. They were celebrated during a live webinar hosted by our Rector Magnificus Pamala Habibović. Using the links below their names, you will find an "elevator pitch" from each student, plus a video in which the supervisor congratulates the lucky winner.
