INKOM 2024
From Monday 19 until Thursday 22 August students will get to know each other and the city of Maastricht. This week is about getting to know Maastricht, the city where you will meet new people and you will have to learn to find your way around again. Not just at the faculty, the library and the sports centre, but also the student and study associations and the area in and around Maastricht.
To make your transfer to the university, the faculty and the city of Maastricht as smooth as possible, we will be organising introduction days:
We also celebrate the new academic year with an event called 'Opening Academic Year'.
INKOM 2024 - from 19 until 22 August
The INKOM is the introduction week for all new students in Maastricht. Under the supervision of two senior students you will plunge in student life during the INKOM: you get to know your fellow students, the city, the academic and cultural life of Maastricht.
INKOM 2024’s theme is ‘Building Bridges’. This theme symbolises the student’s path from secondary school to university and building a bridge to a new start. Maastricht is characterised by its many bridges, such as the Sint Servaas bridge, which connects the historical city centre and the vibrant heart of the city. It also symbolises the way the INKOM connects students and residents of Maastricht with a variety of sportive and cultural activities.

Both INKOM and the faculty introduction days are important!
During the INKOM, you’ll meet new people and you’ll have the opportunity to get acquainted with student associations, student life and the city of Maastricht. During the faculty introduction days, the main emphasis will be on your programme of study and getting acquainted with your fellow students, your mentor and the faculty.
Faculty introduction days
During the faculty introduction days, you’ll receive study-related information, and you’ll have the opportunity to get acquainted with the digital learning environment and your fellow students, but you’ll also learn all about the ins and outs of your faculty at Maastricht University.
Every faculty has their own programme. At most faculties, the introduction days are mandatory. You’ll receive a separate invitation to participate in the faculty introduction days. Some programmes also allow you to sign yourself up.
Please note: at most faculties, participation in the faculty introduction days is mandatory!
