    Student Testimonials

    Master student Shipping & Transport full-time

    “I chose this master’s programme for its specific focus, and it has truly lived up to my expectations. I especially enjoyed the excursions and guest lectures from companies in the field—they brought real-world insights into the classroom. The many group projects taught me how much smarter we become when we combine our knowledge and learn from one another. I’ve also developed the skills to work effectively in a multicultural environment and gained valuable expertise in the maritime sector.”

    Nikolaos Latsonas

    Master student Shipping & Transport full-time

    “I chose this programme because of its unique location—Rotterdam is home to the largest port in the EU, making it an ideal place to study. Studying abroad had always been a goal of mine, and RUAS gave me that opportunity. During my time here, I started an internship and made many great friends along the way. One of the most valuable lessons I learned was how to manage my time effectively. After graduation, I plan to continue my journey and build my career in the Netherlands.”

    Golrokh Dehlavi

    Master student Shipping & Transport full-time

    “Studying the Master of Shipping and Transport was a great step for starting my career in the shipping industry. I really liked the building, the study spaces, and all the events the programme organized—they were fun and super helpful. The courses covered important topics like research, teamwork, and maritime subjects, and while it was challenging at times, staying on top of the classes really paid off. As of June, I landed a job at a good shipping company. Overall, it’s been a really nice experience in the Netherlands, and the networking opportunities through the programme made a big difference.”
