Working here means a balanced life – a top job in a quiet setting, without the hassle of congested highways. This is a place where there is plenty going on, but without the typical problems of major cities. You can recharge your batteries after work by enjoying the good life: a work-out, a walk in the countryside, a game of golf, a night at the opera, in the movie theater or dining out, everything is right there. And it is bustling. Over 13,000 students from 70 different countries provide a constant input of fresh enthusiasm and ambition. They came to jump-start their careers and keep the cities alive and vibrant at all times. Are you moving with a working spouse, job opportunities are available in a wide range of industries with Brussels, Düsseldorf, Aachen, Eindhoven, Cologne, Liège and Venlo within commuting distance.
