“Biomedical Sciences study Groningen”
Ewoud K
Netherlands, Undergraduate
Microbiology, 2022
OverallWhen comparing the Biomedical Sciences bachelor from Rijksuniversiteit Groningen to those of other universities in the Netherlands and abroad one thing was obvious to me. This study is much deeper and more extensive than elsewhere. This means it is significantly more work and a harder study to complete, but you learn significantly more skills.

For night life, I spent more cause partying 4 nights a week costs a lot and I don't do that over here! Same fro travelling, Erasmus gives you the need to travel a lot more than usually!
