50th Dies Natalis Maastricht University 2026

Описание: Maastricht University proudly celebrates its 50th Dies Natalis on Friday, 23 January 2026.

A milestone in a year that invites us to reflect, celebrate and imagine. For fifty years, UM has grown with, and through, its community. During this Dies Natalis, we honour that shared journey and look back on everything we have built together.

This year’s theme, “UM50: A milestone and another step – we keep innovating and serving society”, captures that spirit perfectly.
