Personal recommendation
Try to improve current activities in which international students can meet more easily dutch people. As well try to advertise and improve ways in which the international students can learn more about dutch culture, as they are many students that come anually to this University and at the end they don'know a single word of dutch language, nor dutch culture and people

Try always to travel with groups of friends. Check all the possibilities first concerning means of transportation to see which one is cheaper.

Cheaps ways to travel are: Company to fly: ryanair.com vbird.com corondon.com (from Eindhoven to Istanbul) skyeurope.com by bus: eurolines.com to rent a car is a very cheap way to travel around Netherlands, to go to Paris, etc. For Germany there are a lot of websites where you can share car with people who offer themselves, for example to go to Berlin for 25 euros one way, normally from Aachen always, it's cheaper.

Courses were quite a lot of work for many students I talked to, so you should be prepared that you can't party all the time if you want to bring home decent grades. Or choose not too many courses!

Great University Experience
Jasmijn v
Netherlands,
Biology, 2023
Overall
With my study, MSP, it allowed me to choose my own courses completely from the second semester in the first year. This allowed me to find myself and become a multidisciplinary student. While my main focus always remained biology, I was also able to gain experience in programming and other fields, which is not as easily possible in other studies.

Careers
For my thesis, the study gave many different opportunities for internships to write the thesis which helped me greatly. It gave options of internship both within the university and outside.

That's wonderful... really hard if you are coming from an Italian university. The educational system is totally different, new.

I would have done it for a longer period but I couldn't. I stayed there for the maximal time I could. It is not important what you learnt... of course it is also important... but what's best is that you can experience a new way of life. You can live with other people in you same situation. The relationship with these people become so strong.
