World Associations

At University of Twente you will encounter many different cultures because of the high number of international students. If you want to get to know these cultures even better and make friends from all over the world, there are a number of world associations that each represent a country or foreign culture. They organise cool activities in which you see, hear, taste, and experience the other culture. Furthermore, the activities are very educational, since getting to know a new culture puts your own principles, habits, and customs in perspective. Interested in what membership of a world association entails? Visit the websites for more information.
