How to find us:
By air: Brussels (Zaventem), Belgium: The
nearest international airport is Brussels. From there you can take the train
(about 2 hours) to Maastricht. You can also arrange for an airport shuttle
(www.brull.nl) which can get you to Maastricht in about an hour. One-way trip
costs 37 € and round trip costs 66 €. Maastricht/Aachen Airport, The
Netherlands: Fly
into Maastricht/Aachen Airport and take a taxi to the University.
Unfortunately there is very little public transportation from and to the
airport. Amsterdam (Schiphol): Amsterdam
is further than Brussels but has better train connections to Maastricht. The
train takes about 2.5 hours to Maastricht. Taking a taxi from this airport is
of course more expensive and takes a lot longer than from Brussels. The
airport taxi from Amsterdam/ Schiphol takes 2 hours. Prices depend on the number
of other passengers. By train You can take direct train to Maastricht
Central Station from Amsterdam Central Station or you can take the train from
Schiphol airport to Utrecht, then transfer to the train to Maastricht Central
Station. Make sure to be on the front cars of the train since the train
splits into two at Sittard 15 minutes before Maastricht. Only the front part goes
to Maastricht. By public transport The easiest way to reach the Faculty of
Economics and Business Administration in Maastricht is by public transport.
Take the train to Maastricht Central Station (CS). From there you can take bus
numbers 3, 4,
9 and 12 (at night time or very early in the morning take bus numbers 21, 28,
29 and 32). You
can tell the bus driver that you need to get off the bus at bus stop
