I would recommend Maastricht university to everyone who wants to experience an international and intercultural environment. Something I find fascinating is the PBL, you won’t find such approach anywhere else. It really helped me to become more confident, aware of my own strengths and weaknesses, but also a good listener. It gives you the opportunity to share your thoughts and ideas, but embracing different perspectives and becoming more inclusive and open minded.
Another thing I’d like to highlight is the sustainability aspect. UM’s commitment to sustainability is something tangible in every aspect. Buildings that have been built with recycled materials, recycled cups, lots of vegan options at the mensa, and so on.
Overall, professors are friendly, willing to help students whenever possible and, from my experience, most of the time also a source of encouragement and inspiration.
