I believe the university promotes critical thinking among students. This means that they do not only care about our knowledge but also about us growing as a person. Thanks to this critical thinking we will be able to participate in active debates and make a progress as a society.
View moreThe first time coming here I was more than nervous. Scared to move into a new place and find my way around. After around 8 months, I am not comfortable and obsessed with living in Groningen. Not only is the university amazing, but the student life the university and city have to offer is also a highlight. I really like my courses so far, they are very diverse therefore there are a lot of knowledge one gains from attending this university.
View moreI really enjoy the classes I have taken so far. A lot of the grammar classes such as Language optimisation are a pain, and I feel like they are unnecessary. Despite this, most of the classes are great and interesting. I feel like they are very targeted towards my future career options. Specifically, marketing and managers and communications consultants.
View moreCurrently, I’m following the English track for the Communication and Information Studies at the University of Groningen. So far it has brought me a wide range of courses from which I’ve learned not only about communication but also how to improve myself as a person.
View moreI love the RUG. It’s a university in my hometown and I am honored to be a RUG student. The vibes at the school are amazing. Lovely people as well, very diverse, lots of internationals too. The professors are of a high level and the education level is very high. Overall a great and underrated institution.
View moreI am enjoying the programme a lot. I am studying communication and information studies and I am finding it very interesting. The classes are well spread out and very focused. The student life here is great, with a big sense of community and fun as well as focused study. The school is very International with a majority being Dutch but with large minorities of Romanian, Spanish and French. However, there are not any other Australians which is disappointing. My career prospects are very good, with the focus being on marketing and communications managers.
View moreThe courses are well structured and rather interesting and stimulating. Some professors are purely precious and willing to help students understand the materials. This programme is international friendly which helps first-year students accommodate faster to the new environment and changes brought by moving to another country. Some drawbacks are that some teachers won’t give the same energy to make students understand, but there are only just a few.
View moreThe “Communication and Information Studies” or shortly CIS is the best option that I could have ever made regarding my future.
The study curricula are very complex and what I like the most is the fact that we learn communication usage in different fields such as research, digital communication, digital communication and so on.
I would strongly recommend this programme to everyone!
View moreI really liked that the course in my first year already had many options of courses available and was able to give us an idea of what we will see in the next coming years. I recommend this programme and university to anyone looking for a future job in marketing, communications, and journalism.
