Are you interested in the BA International Studies but not yet sure if this is the right programme for you? Would you like to talk to students, attend a lecture and participate in a tutorial? Come to the Experience Day on campus in The Hague on November 9.

The Experience Day is meant for students who have already informed themselves about the programme, by watching the programme video below, through attending an Open Day, or by doing the Online Experience.
This Experience Day dives a bit deeper into the content of the programme so you can experience what it is really like.

Event programme

  • You will start your day by attending a lecture by Gerlov van Engelenhoven. This lecture will be an excerpt International Studies' second year course,  Cultural Interaction. During this Experience Day we will look at culture: In what sense is culture a matter of life and death? and what is the definition of culture?
  • You will then follow a tutorial in a smaller group, during which you will discuss the lecture and the homework assignment you prepared beforehand with the tutorial-lecturer and fellow prospective students. There is also the opportunity to ask students and staff your questions at the information market.  
  • Parents & guardians follow their own programme at the Experience Day, consisting of a programme presentation and a guided city tour. 

Sign up for the event

If you want to visit this event on campus, you can sign up for one of the two rounds. If you would like to bring a parent or guardian, you can indicate this when registering. Your parent or guardian can join a parallel programme. The location of the programme will be Wijnhaven, the Hague. PLEASE MIND: REGISTER BEFORE NOVEMBER 6.
