Universiteit Leiden

‘Inclusion and opportunity’

Contribution: Rhea Roy Mammen (affiliated researcher)

The university offers unparalleled inclusion and opportunities. As an expat wondering how to move forward in my academic career, I was given space and hope by the university. The multitude of intellectual spaces and opportunities for networking is amazing. The university’s reputation and quality of resources are what make the experience at the university different.
