The CES program is so incredible! The staff is so kind and supportive, and willing to help with whatever you need. The pre-arranged activites and trips were such great opportunties and my favorite part of the program. I was able to experience so many different cultures and learn from a new perspective.

As an art history student with a particular interest in the Dutch Old Masters, having the ability to study Dutch Art in the Netherlands was a dream come true! CES Maastricht provided a course dedicated to Dutch Art History, specifically, which was my favorite class I took while abroad. Field trips and hands-on learning locally around Maastricht and to museums around the country brought the learning to life and created a greater sense of connection and appreciation to the culture and country I was studying in. Studying Dutch Art in its original context was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that not only deepened my love for my area of study, but also made me feel much more at home and connected to the Maastricht community!

Enroll directly at Maastricht University (UM) in this semester study abroad program (fall and spring terms), and examine the roots of European culture and identity. In 1992, the Maastricht Treaty led to the creation of the European Union (EU), with its motto “Unity in Diversity”. But what is European identity? How do the lessons of the past teach us about society today? These questions are at the heart of European culture and society, and hinge on difficult questions about European history and conflict. Founded by the Romans, controlled by the Spaniards, besieged by the French, and occupied by the Germans, the picturesque cit...
