A degree is not just about what you study. It is about where it can take you.

At UCR, students graduate with a degree from Utrecht University while developing the flexibility, critical thinking, and academic depth needed for competitive master’s programs and careers.

Medicine. Law. Business. Data science. Research. Entrepreneurship.

What happens when students design their own course? 👀

This semester, a group of 11 UCR students did exactly that.

Through the student-designed course “From Resisting Narratives to Narrating Resistance”, students explored what learning, pedagogy, and knowledge-sharing can look like when students become creators, not just participants.

To close the semester, they hosted a Symposium in Anne common space, inviting the UCR community to engage with big questions about higher education, storytelling, resistance, and how education can be reimagined.

Part exhibition, part conversation, part experiment, this was a space for ideas, discussion, homemade treats, and challenging the way we think about learning.

At UCR, learning doesn’t always stay inside the classroom.

Studying in Middelburg comes with some pretty iconic traditions 👀

One month you are ice skating in the middle of the city. The next you are celebrating King’s Day dressed head to toe in orange with thousands of other people.

There is always something happening here and that is part of what makes student life in Middelburg so special.

These are the moments that make this place feel like home.

👉 Which event would you want to experience first?

Think there is only one way into competitive fields like medicine, psychology, or business?

Think again.

At UCR, you do not apply to one fixed programme. You start a Liberal Arts and Sciences degree and build your own academic route within it.

A Pathway helps you shape your courses towards your future goals while still giving you the freedom to explore and grow.

You work with your personal tutor to design a programme that builds the depth, research skills, and academic foundation expected by competitive master’s programmes.

So you are not choosing a different goal. You are choosing a smarter way to get there.

✔ Design your own academic route
✔ Combine depth with flexibility
✔ One degree aligned with your future direction

Same ambition. More freedom.

From classroom idea to real-world pitch 🚀

As part of the course Business & Entrepreneurship, UCR student Marnik recently presented his prototype at Dockwize Demo Day in Vlissingen — alongside students from different colleges after 10 weeks of development and iteration.

In front of a room full of people from Dockwize, participants had just a few minutes to present their prototype, answer questions, and invite feedback from the audience.

And the response to Marnik’s project? 👀
The people loved it with multiple attendees showing real interest and even exchanging contact information after the presentation.

This is what learning at UCR can look like:
developing ideas, testing prototypes, presenting to professionals, and building real connections beyond the classroom.

A huge congratulations to Marnik and everyone who participated in the Demo Day 👏

Applying to university can feel overwhelming… but it doesn’t have to be.

The strongest applications are not the most perfect ones; they are the most honest, reflective, and well thought through.

At UCR, we look beyond grades. We want to understand how you think, what drives you, and whether this is a place where you can grow.

These 8 tips are a great place to start if you are preparing your application.

Welcome back to Middelburg and to UCR!

Last weekend, UCR and Aurora - UCR's Alumni Foundation, welcomed alumni back for the Alumni Homecoming Weekend — a day of reconnecting, reminiscing, and making new memories together.

From the very first generation of alumni to the most recent graduating class, it was special to see so many familiar faces return to Middelburg and celebrate the community that continues long after graduation.

The weekend included an opening speech, lunch with professors and alumni, a walk through the new academic programme, a reception with drinks, dinner in the Burgerzaal, a Roosevelt College Choir performance and Aurora drinks at Café Bommel.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined and helped make this Homecoming so meaningful.

Once UCR, always UCR.

When theory meets real-life practice 🧠🤝

In Professor Soledad Santos’ Psychodiagnostics & Psychotherapy class, UCR students explored what it means to connect academic knowledge with real clinical skills.

For this special activity, Joyce from Emergis , the largest mental health care organisation in Zeeland, helped organise a session where students practised interviewing patients with real clinical problems through cases based on lived professional experience.

It was a powerful way for students to move beyond theory and experience how psychodiagnostic assessment, psychotherapy, and communication come together in practice.

A big thank you to Joyce, Emergis, and Professor Soledad Santos for bringing this meaningful learning experience into the classroom.
