Excellence Education

To promote the quality of education and fulfil an integral part of its vision on education, Maastricht University has developed a range of excellence programmes for ambitious, motivated, high-performing students. At EDLAB we further develop, implement, and centrally coordinate these programmes.

More specifically, we facilitate a challenging, (interdisciplinary) learning environment in which students of demonstrated quality are offered extracurricular opportunities. Accordingly, we provide them with a chance to develop their talents, increase their knowledge, strengthen their resume, and get prepared for the job market.
