Maastricht Summer School started in 2012 as a joint initiative of Maastricht University, Zuyd University of Applied Sciences and Maastricht School of Management, which are all based in the beautiful city of Maastricht. MSS’s mission is to offer education in the summer period that is complementary to the traditional educational tasks of the university.
Maastricht Summer School experiences the special ambiance of teaching and attending classes in the summer: both students and professors are highly motivated, friends are being made and of course the long summer days bring a smile to our faces. The courses are of high academic quality.
Maastricht Summer School is a collaboration between Maastricht School of Management, Zuyd University of Applied Sciences and Maastricht University. These institutes jointly offer courses in a variety of fields and disciplines. They are geared towards students at undergraduate/bachelor level but may well be interesting to graduate/master level students and professionals.
UM multidisciplinary collaborations contribute to solving major societal issues within our primary research themes. Whenever possible, UM research is translated into economic, financial, or social value.
UM participates in centres of excellence, both technological and social, to allow scientific discoveries to be swiftly converted into practical applications. What is more, research is integrated into education at every level. Our educational method, Problem-Based Learning, lays the groundwork for students to embrace research and the scientific method from the very first day of their studies.
UM Career Services aims to bring students and the job market closer together. On the one hand we help prepare Maastricht University students and alumni for their careers, on the other we serve as a portal for companies and organisations intrested in recruiting students and alumni. In addition, UM Career Services supports faculties and student organisations with the organisation of career-related activities.
