Maastricht is in the centre of Europe. Its position, together with the quality of the courses, makes Maastricht University a very international city. You can meet people from all the European countries and the world, so I would say you can grow personally in a really short time. Learn about cultures, activities and styles in your everyday life.
The university is quite hard, but very rewarding, due to its growing importance in Europe. The course offered is really really interesting, up to date and you can feel like studying something needed in nowadays society.

Personally, I studied European and International Law and now I am pursuing a master’s in Globalisation and Law at the same university

Maastricht University is a highly international university, giving me the opportunity to study and learn with people from several different nationalities. The course European Law is an amazing course, which gives a broad and extensive knowledge of different legal systems. The aspect that attracts me the most is the comparative approach of the course. We, students, learn deeply due to the comparison that we are encouraged to make between different countries, taking the consideration the state and government structure, the legislative process, the assumptions in contract law…
As the university follows the PBL system, the students acquire a huge understanding in the overall content since we need to go after the information by ourselves and construct the logic in our heads, before consolidating it in the tutorials and lectures. The teachers are in the tutorials ot guide the students and show right ways to approach and face the contents.

MU offers help on each step where u can struggle. Every tutor is willing to help and u will never be abandoned by University staff. I recommend this University overall. My programme is also interesting for everyone who wants to work in EU or UN.
