Be a Student for a Day

Join our Student for a Day event and experience university life first-hand! You'll explore a programme that sparks your interest by joining a real lecture, tutorial, or practical session — just like a real student.

You’ll also get to:

• Chat with current students and lecturers
• Ask all your questions about the programme
• Discover if this is the right fit for you

Who can join

Final-year high school students (VWO 5/6 or the international equivalent) who are seriously considering one of our Bachelor's programmes.

Upcoming dates

Location

Events take place at the Zernike Campus or at the Faculty of Medical Sciences, depending on the programme.

Good to know

• This event is intended for students who are seriously exploring their study options.
• All Bachelor’s programmes at the Faculty of Science and Engineering (except Pharmacy) are fully taught in English — so all sessions during this day will also be in English.
