Janelle Janolo on studying abroad at Maastricht University (GLBH)
“At Maastricht University I was enrolled in the Politics, Law, & International Relations in Europe program to complete the IR requirements for the Global Health major. The discussion-based format of PBL provided an enriching experience where I was able to learn about topics such as globalization and inequality with European students.”
This exposed me to robust viewpoints as I was the only American in some of my courses. The smaller classroom size allowed me to interact with faculty and facilitated questions/engagement.
