Social Activities

Introduction Days
Each year the Department of Communication & International Affairs organises several introductory activities for international students. During these Introduction Days we will help you with settling into your new environment, getting to know your new class-mates, and taking care of administrative matters.

Coming soon: a video clip on this years' introduction!

Also during the rest of the year, the Department of Communication & International Affairs is involved in organising social activities. What do you say to, for example, an evening of international cooking, visiting an amusement park or having a BBQ?! The international students are expected to assist in the organisation of these social activities, so if you are interested in becoming part of the Social Committee, let us know!

Through Twitter and Facebook our department will keep you informed about interesting activities in Den Bosch and the rest of the Netherlands.

In October, all first year students of your study programme take part in a 3-day Outdoor Activity – according to our second-year students it will be the highlight of your first term!
