Wageningen University and Research makes sure the student, after two years, has gained knowledge and new skills that will help the person in the job market. Lecturers and staff are dedicated to making sure the student has a good experience and gains knowledge.

I have overall had a great experience at WUR. As an international student, I felt very much included very fast, because there as so many internationals, and the Dutch also practically all speak English there. The courses being offered in English also helped with this. The teachers speak very clearly during lectures overall and are of great help during tutorials, where you are in smaller groups of students to put into practice the theory learned in class. Also, the campus is very modern, the classrooms and library are well taken care of and even have adjustable tables and chairs, to help avoid back/neck/arm pain when studying. The university also allows each student to have a study advisor for academic orientation or personal questions, guiding the students through the process to make sure they achieve their academic goals in the most adequate way for them. The manner of learning is also very multidisciplinary, which I really enjoy because it helps to get an overview of the world’s problems from each side of the story, taking all into consideration.
The student life in Wageningen is quite in a cozy atmosphere I must say, because the city is so small, everyone is connected somehow and it is very easy to make friends. Lots of parties are house parties or some casual pot-luck dinners with friends. But there are also some nice pubs or bars and restaurants in the cute city centre where you can enjoy a drink or meal on a terrace. You can get from any point A to point B within 15-20min maximum in Wageningen with your bike, so it’s really practical for going out, groceries, or not having to wake up too early for classes!
Many extra-curricular activities are offered by associations, where you can get accustomed to
Dutch culture, sustainability projects, sports, and parties! I recommend this university to anyone looking for a nice balance between social and study life.

Wageningen University provides a really good environment for students to study and live and I really appreciate it. Like my track, environmental technology, I have learned a lot from the relevant courses which help me to gain a basic skill to deal with the environmental problems.
