Ingri Olsen / UCV alumna
"I was one of the first bachelor students at UCV, together with a small group of international students. One of the things I liked most about UCV was the ability to explore our interests by creating our own curriculum. At first I wanted to study business and economics, but I soon explored my interest in public health and social psychology. UCV made it possible for me to make this transition because it is a university college with an open curriculum. Moreover, I really enjoyed the small-scale education provided at UCV. The students and the staff knew each other well and it was more of a familiar atmosphere at the campus. We also received extra attention and guidance from the teachers throughout the study that helped us to develop both as academics and individuals.
After the bachelor at UCV, I chose to do the master’s Health Education & Promotion at Maastricht University. It was first when I studied the master that I realized how much I have profited from studying at UCV. UCV has supported my development of academic skills and valuable knowledge in my field of interest, namely health promotion. I would definitely recommend UCV to all prospective bachelor students!"
