The programme gives you the possibility of having an experience full of various linguistic topics and fields. You are totally free to choose your specialisation according to your interests. It shapes your academic persona by challenging you in practical or theoretical research. In addition, this programme taught me to use a critical approach to research through the application of linguistic theories. This is something totally different from my previous education; it is more challenging and formative.

The atmosphere in class is friendly with a pinch of good competition, which encourages you to work harder.

There is only one mandatory course which was more demanding than the others. It is statistics. It is a fundamental course for carrying out quantitative research, and it was difficult in terms of the number of different topics studied.

I just have started to write my MA's thesis about the lexical developments in the acquisition of Indonesian as a second language by Italian students at the Bachelor level.

Linguistics is still an underrated field. Having more specialised people in this field might raise the importance of linguistics in both specific and related jobs. After my Master's degree, I would like to apply for a PhD.

Scholarships

Radboud Scholarship Programme

The Radboud Scholarship Programme is a very selective scholarship programme. It offers talented, highly motivated, non-EEA students with outstanding study results the opportunity to be awarded a scholarship for a complete English-taught Radboud University Master’s degree programme.

Scope of the programme
Each year 12 full scholarships and about 25 partial scholarships are awarded within the Radboud Scholarship Programme for the duration of one of the English taught Master's degree programmes (with the exception of Erasmus Mundus Master's programmes, joint-degree Master's programmes, and the Master's programme in Theology (3year)).

Full scholarships
A full scholarship covers the tuition fee of €16,000/€16,500 and living costs of €10,800 (as set by the IND, the Dutch Immigration and Naturalisation Service, for 2021/2022).

Partial scholarships
A partial scholarship will reduce your tuition fee to € 2,168. For example: a grant holder in 2021/2022 will pay a tuition fee of only €2,168, instead of €16,000/€16,500.

Value of Scholarship(s)

Full scholarships (tuition and living) and partial scholarships (legal instead of institutional tuition fees)

Eligibility

You will be eligible to apply for a Radboud Scholarship if you:
- hold a non-EU/EEA passport
- are not eligible for the lower EEA tuition fee for other reasons
- have (will obtain) a Bachelor's degree achieved outside the Netherlands
- meet the English language proficiency requirement for the Master's programme of your choice
- have been (will be) fully admitted to the English-taught Master's degree programme starting 1 September

Application Procedure

You can apply by indicating during your application for admission for a Master's programme at Radboud University that you wish to apply for a Radboud Scholarship. You will then be requested to upload three additional documents: two reference letters and a curriculum vitae, if you have not already done so for the Master's programme application.

The selection for the scholarship and the admission to the Master's programme are two separate processes: admission to the Master's programme does not imply selection for the scholarship.
