Open Information Meetings
Next to the annual Open Days we offer an informal space for students to visit us throughout the year, during so-called Open Information Meetings. Each session offers an introduction to the course, practical information about how to apply and ample space to ask questions. For foreign students, or students with long travel distance we also organize an online session. If you’d like to participate, please send an e-mail (at the latest 3 days before the meeting) with your name and phone number to: comim[at]hr.nl, and a short answer to the question: what is your background professionally, and what interests you in the course?
