Likes
- Liked the courses that were offered at the university and it affordability in comparison to other options. Stable economy of the Netherlands and welcoming nature of the goverment
- Beyond academics, the campus itself was a hub of excitement and energy. The beautifully landscaped grounds provided a picturesque backdrop for my daily walks between classes, and the state-of-the-art facilities, such as the library, laboratories, and recreational centers, were always bustling with activity. Whether it was attending engaging lectures, participating in lively debates, or engaging in extracurricular activities, there was never a dull moment.
Dislikes
- Tution fee could be unjustifiably extra sometimes. In general one can question how much one can learn online and how much extra educational value is being added by the university courses.
Overview
I do miss being on the campus and being among my fellow students. My positive experience are limited to meeting nice people in general. In terms of educational value. Dutch education system encourage you to learn by making your own mistakes so you have to do a lot of self study although teachers are always there to help you but you are expected to manage most of it yourself. In the light of emerging online university and free educational material one can argue what extra is provided by the university apart from creating an ecosystem but as an International student you have to be careful about how expensive it can be for you.
Campus Life
It was the best part of my masters. Nijmegen can be called a student town because students are the life of it. There are options to clubbing and events in Nijmegen however Amsterdam is only 1.5 hours away so if you are a party animal plenty of things to do. However as an international student you should be careful of you expenses since these things can disturb your budget
Overview
The university is well renowned for computer science and I wanted to specialize in cyber -security and it has a really great program so I chose it.
Campus Life
Amazing campus life with all the facilities - sports, access to multiple libraries, theatres, etc
