What our students thought of their 2022 summer school experience.
“A high educational standard, inspiring professors, and an international classroom with professionals and students from all walks of life. A great addition to your summer!”
“Maastricht Summer School was such an absolutely incredible experience in all aspects. The team was so warm and welcoming. The classroom was diverse and dynamic with students from around the world. Dr Hodges truly had an amazing ability to bring theoretical concepts to life and spark a passion in us all. Maastricht is also such a beautiful city to explore. I am so grateful for this opportunity and would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested.”
“At the end of the course the discussed topics and exercises really came together and I noticed how much I learned and how many insights I gained in R and its use within one week.”
