Online Experience Day BA European Studies
Welcome to the online Experience Day of our bachelor’s programme in European Studies!
During this day you will experience what’s it like to study at the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASoS) as a European Studies student. This day will start off with a programme presentation given by the programme director and a short explanation about the Problem-Based Learning-system by one of our Student Ambassadors. After these presentations, you will experience what it’s really like to work in a tutorial group, together with other participants of the Online Experience Day. Our students from FASoS will be there to guide and help you and your group with the assignment. After this you will receive mini lecture, the information given in this lecture you can use in the second part of the tutorial group. Then it’s time for a lunchbreak, during this lunchbreak a student recruiter will come online to answer any questions you have concerning the programme or studying in Maastricht. After the lunch break we will continue with the second part of the tutorial group. Our on-campus Experience Days are ended by a Campus Tour, to give you a similar experience online you can do the virtual campus tour, which you can find at the bottom of this page. We wish you a very informative day and hope you will get a good impression of our faculty and BA European Studies.
Have fun!
