Introduction

The Faculty of Arts is one of the largest faculties within Radboud University Nijmegen, with approximately 2,800 students and more than 300 staff. In the early days, its primary emphasis was on history and languages. Within the languages programmes there has always been the possibility of specialising in literary and linguistic aspects of a language. Nowadays, besides traditional specialisations, new options are available, such as Business Communication Studies and the interdisciplinary regional programmes of American Studies and German Studies. Other examples of innovative disciplines are Cultural History and Comparative Arts and Cultural Studies.

Studying in Nijmegen is a unique experience! The Faculty of Arts has hosted students from all over the world for many years now. Since the start of the Erasmus Programme (Life Long Learning Programme), the number of guest students from Europe has considerably grown. In the last few years over 100 foreign students visited the Faculty of Arts every year. 

Ms Elly van der Borgh, officer for international relations of the Faculty of Arts, warmly welcomes you as a foreign student who is interested in coming to study in Nijmegen. You can find more information about studying at the Faculty of Arts in the Netherlands here.
