Emilia (Security Studies)

‘I have learned during honours to deal with perfectionism. In the honours class Design Your Life, I came across the 70% rule. If I devote 70% of my time and energy to my studies and hobbies, and allow the remaining 30% to flow naturally, I’m a lot less stressed and exhausted. I have more free time while still achieving my goals.’

‘I thought that I would have no free time left, but so far I have had no issues with balancing my academic, professional, and social life. You learn how to plan more accordingly. I have become more efficient with studying and planning; I plan better and get more done.’

‘I am very happy that I applied, I enjoy these classes a lot! I know now that if I had not applied, I would have regretted it a lot. If you are looking for an additional challenge and meeting new people, it is the perfect choice. There’s a lot of freedom, you choose the courses you want to take, which could complement your bachelor or dive into a completely new area.’
