Student review [#64160] for European Cultures and Society
at University of Groningen - RUG

I am doing a master’s program at the University of Groningen in Euroculture. Euroculture is an Erasmus Mundus program, putting the aspect of mobility at its core. Students like myself have the opportunity to study and work across countries in Europe for four semesters, or two academic years. I had the pleasure to study at the University of Groningen for one semester and it was simply a delightful student experience. The courses by themselves focused extensively on discussion and feedback, and the workflow was intensive enough to keep you engaged throughout the semester. Regarding my experience with university administration, the university and my program coordinator made the process of admitting me to the program as well as other processes like registering my second and third semester mobilities as easy as can be. I would highly recommend my program for students interested in EU affairs, politics and cultural studies. However, as a general remark for all the students, Groningen is a great place to study already because of its amazing study culture. There are lovely coffee shops all over the city, with some having even their own silent areas. The university libraries, especially the UB, and Forum are also great options to consider 🙂
