"It was appealing that this programme was very practically oriented"
Tjelvar van Zuijlen (23)student
I followed a Bachelor programme in Amsterdam and I was looking for a way to distinguish myself from other Bachelor students. I heard about this Master and I did not know exactly what to expect from the programme. It was appealing that this programme was very practically oriented.
I have learned most from the research project that we conducted for a research group in an interdisciplinary student team. I have learned for instance to take a step back when I am asked to solve a certain problem. To not only think how, but also and mostly what and why? We’ve really been able to shape the project ourselves and it was necessary to broaden our view to take into account more and different perspectives on the problem.
