BEST

Who are we

I want to do more in my studies than just studying and partying. I want to expand on my hard and soft skills that nobody teaches me in the aula. I want to discover Europe without worrying about money or taking a break in my studies. I want to learn to organise and coordinate professional events. I want to be part of an international network. I try to prepare myself as good as possible for my life after my studies. If you recognise yourself in this discussion, then Best is there for you!

Revue

For over 50 years does a big group of engineers and architects a spectacle where we can laugh with all our profs. Therefore, we combine theatre, dance and live music. The script is handwritten, the décor is handmade, the costumes are sewed, the dances are created by us and even the music parts are recomposed by us! Different subgroups work together to create the result. You want to be seen? Join Actors, Music+ (singing) and dance. Afraid of the stage, join the crew behind the scenes. The groups of writing, décor, textile, promo, catering, technique, or IT will more than welcome you. Besides that, we do plenty of intern teambuilding’s like a Christmas party, a cantus … All of this is done in Dutch.
