Experience Day South and Southeast Asian Studies

Date

Time
Location
Lipsius
Cleveringaplaats 1
2311 BD Leiden

Dozens of peoples, religions and languages exist alongside each other in India, Indonesia and their neighbouring countries. At South and Southeast Asian Studies, you will encounter a fascinating mix of traditional and modern cultures. You will study the history, culture, politics and societies of South and Southeast Asia, choose one of four languages (Hindi, Indonesian, Sanskrit or Tibetan) and learn about religions like Buddhism, Hinduism and Islam.

What is an Experience Day?

Registration for the Experience Day is closed.

During a Experience Day you will attend a lecture and a tutorial. A current student joins you at the lectures and shows you around campus. An important part of a real lecture day is preparing your lectures: you therefore have to do some homework. After the lectures, drinks will be served and you can ask all your questions to the lecturer and a student who studies South and Southeast Asian Studies during drinks.

Who can take part?

The Experience Day is intended for people in their last years of pre-university education (like 5/6 VWO) or students of a (Dutch) university of applied sciences. Have you visited the website, watched the programme video and visited the Bachelor's Open Day? Then an Experience Day is the perfect moment to experience whether this programme suits you.
