At Radboud university, an initiative called ‘Asylum university’ promotes to open courses to people without a “status” to participate. Even though the semester has already started, you can still contact the people teaching and we are very positive that you can still drop in.
It is a very important step to lower the walls that can surround university and make it difficult to just hop onto the learning train. The courses mentioned below surely welcome you as a person, they welcome everyone, because learning should be for everyone and knowledge should be shared.
