Student experiences

Studying at an applied university requires more responsibility and individual work compared to high school.

Elise

Student International Communication Management Eindhoven

Studying at Fontys allows me to develop myself on my terms. Within my studies, I have a lot of freedom in deciding what kind of direction I want to go. All the students and teachers are very supportive. However, I believe studying at Fontys can be described as "what you ask for is what you get". Studying at an applied university requires more responsibility and individual work compared to high school. Being able to take the first step might be difficult, but afterwards, Fontys helps you out and is willing to answer all of your questions.
