Student ambassador Feline Dirkx

As an international student ambassador, I love to share helpful tips and experiences about the ESSET program. Please don't hesitate to reach out!

"My passion for environmental science started with my passion for house plants which led me to dive deep into environmental sciences. I have chosen the bachelor Environmental Science for Sustainability Ecosystems & Technology at Avans after careful consideration between multiple environmental science programs around the Netherlands. In my 19 years of life, I have lived in a couple of places: the Netherlands, Switzerland, and New York City. I have always dreamed of coming to my mother country and now here I am!"

"Being in the Netherlands has been a refreshing change after being in the States, where environmental issues are not being taken as seriously as here. I want to be a part of restoring nature and our planet to its previous glory and creating a better life for future generations. This is why my journey starts with ESSET. I’ve had an amazing experience so far at Avans, even with a few bumps in the road. That’s why I decided to become an ambassador, to help you avoid those bumps and teach you about studying in the Netherlands! Feel free to contact me any time with any questions!”
