Education for refugee students

“I feel good to be able to feel ‘student’ again. Instead of ‘refugee’, an identity that I associate with traumatic experiences from the past. As a student, I am able to focus on the future again” - Student customized project for refugee students.

The Radboud University wants to improve the access to academic education for students with a refugee background. We have developed two programmes for this: Radboud Welcomes Newcomers and the customized programme for refugee students.

These programmes are in line with the strategy of the Radboud University that states that we focus on caring for each other and the world around us. We remain committed to the empowerment of social and cultural minorities. We want to be of meaning. Thereby, we pay special attention to students who are forced to seek refuge in our region.
