Freedom and Opportunities

My experience within TU/e is overall positive mainly due to the student focused approach that the university utilises in order to accomodate new students and make them feel at home. One of the ways this was achieved was by having a vast variety of student associations for absolutely every hobby that one might have. On top of that, the university promotes and encourages the participation within student teams which is a perfect bridge between studying and working as you get to experience how a real work environment functions while being surrounded by students. The university also provides different levels of guidance so that one can tackle any problem they face.

Creative Business

Studying Creative Business at NHL Stenden has been a great experience with a few bumps down the road. Generally speaking, I'm very glad about my choice to study here - as an international student I am surrounded by other internationals which makes me feel more welcome and comfortable; this university has provided me with numerous extracurricular opportunities, which were not only great for networking and finding like-minded connections, but also getting extremely nice and useful experience, whether it's working on a real set with professional production equipment or creating content and representing my course on social media! When it comes to the study itself, it usually is pretty confusing, as students are usually just thrown into practical projects without initial preparation and sometimes not enough guidance. However, once you get used to design-based education, you realize how exciting the assignments actually are - working with real clients, producing your own ideas and seeing them come to life, and just "creativity, creativity, creativity" everywhere. I recommend this university for those who are not afraid of teamwork, thinking outside of the box, and being independent.
