Maastricht University (UM) is fully bilingual (English/Dutch) institution with over 15,500 students and 3,200 staff. The ‘Maastricht Method’ of education revolves around small tutorial groups (12-17) where students tackle ‘real-world’ issues, setting their own learning objectives and conducting research under professorial supervision.

An international organization, roughly half of our students and 40% of academic staff are from abroad. We are rapidly expanding our international network, with hundreds of partners for study abroad and research collaboration. UM is a member of the World University Network and the Young European Research Universities Network. We are co-founder of the Brightlands campuses in Limburg, a regional network consisting of partners in business, education and government.
