Be a student for a day
Are you interested in studying Psychology in Leiden? Would you like to know how it feels to be a student at Leiden University? Do you have some last questions that only a student can answer? Then sign up for the Student for a Day.
Programme
At the Student for a Day event you will get a tour of the building, some time to ask questions and you will experience a real lecture. Finally, you will also be able to participate in a workgroup session. By the end of the day you will have a good idea of what a day in the life of a psychology student in Leiden looks like and hopefully all your questions will be answered.
