speciality: Development Studies

Studying at Wageningen University & Research (WUR) has been not only an insightful and informative experience but also quite enlightening. Being awarded for the 17th consecutive year as the Best University in the Netherlands as well as being among the first 10th best Universities for Development Studies in the world, Wageningen University is sure the right fit you are looking for. Amongst the many lessons students take away after attending such University, the main important one is sure to think critically. As a matter of fact, WUR Professors’ teaching is carried out through the method of critical thinking. Critical thinking is the intellectually disciplined process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and/or evaluating information gathered from, or generated by, studying and as a guide to belief and action. It is not only something you take with yourself and apply throughout those academic years at WUR but rather a way of living and experiencing life that shapes the latter in an indelible way.
