Student Reviews
Representative reviews"Highly recommend"
I was sceptical before starting โ now I'd recommend it to anyone. The best part: small-group tutorials really push your thinking. If I'm honest, a few modules feel under-resourced compared to the flagship ones. On the city โ housing is the one real problem: start looking months before arrival. Overall, if you're considering Physics at Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, I'd say go for it.
"Would do it again"
Honestly, one of the best decisions I've made. The best part: the opportunity to do independent research in the final year is a highlight. If I'm honest, would like to see more industry guest speakers in later years. On the city โ everything works โ public transport, cycling, healthcare, admin. Overall, if you're considering Physics at Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, I'd say go for it.
"Exceeded expectations"
Honestly, one of the best decisions I've made. The best part: small-group tutorials really push your thinking. If I'm honest, first-year classes can be quite large. On the city โ housing is the one real problem: start looking months before arrival. Overall, if you're considering Physics at Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, I'd say go for it.
"Worth it overall"
Would I choose it again? Probably yes, with caveats. The best part: the opportunity to do independent research in the final year is a highlight. If I'm honest, a few modules feel under-resourced compared to the flagship ones. On the city โ housing is the one real problem: start looking months before arrival. Overall, if you're considering Physics at Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, I'd say go for it.
"Genuinely worthwhile"
I've grown so much academically and personally here. The best part: small-group tutorials really push your thinking. If I'm honest, accommodation allocation was stressful in the first year. On the city โ English is universal; you don't need Dutch for the first year. Overall, if you're considering Physics at Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, I'd say go for it.
"Would do it again"
The course has exceeded my expectations. The best part: the course strikes a good balance between theory and practical application. If I'm honest, would like to see more industry guest speakers in later years. On the city โ English is universal; you don't need Dutch for the first year. Overall, if you're considering Physics at Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, I'd say go for it.
