Radboud Go Abroad Week 15 - 17 April 2025

Nijmegen is a great place to study and live! But why not also spend part of your studies abroad? An international study or internship period can be a very valuable addition and special experience. Not only on a personal or academic level, but certainly also as a positive asset for your later career. Seek adventure and attend lectures in Australia, make new friends in Norway or arrange an internship in Berlin.

Want to know more about how to go about it? Where and who to go to for? Which scholarships are available and when and how to apply for them? Then come to the Radboud Go Abroad Week! This week is organised twice a year. Once in the spring and once in the autumn.

The next Radboud Go Abroad week will take place from 15 until 17 April. It will be specifically aimed at all students going abroad in the 2025-2026 academic year, who will receive an invite per email. You can find the programme below. Keep an eye on this page for any updates.

At the bottom of this page you can find the presentation that was given by Student Life and International Mobility.
