My personal experience at NHL Stenden has been very different for myself because i come from a former communist and conservative country which is very focused on theoretical learning and less on creativity and personal development.
I believe design based education did not only open a lot of doors for me to learn through practice but i did also enjoy working in groups which all of the courses at NHL Stenden do. Furthermore until now i had no problem adapting and meeting new international students and i also was very much happy to work with multiple companies and clients for the different projects that we needed to do .
As for the time management in order for you to study and work i had no problems with until now – and i am a second year student.
In addition i have also enjoyed being able to assimilate the Dutch culture through NHL Stenden and with the help of our teachers.
