STREETS OF BK CITY 15 IN EVERY EDITION STUDENTS AND STAFF OF THE FACULTY OF ARCHITECTURE ARE ASKED ABOUT THEIR OPINION. THIS TIME BNIEUWS WENT TO THE BACHELOR OPEN DAYS AND ASKS THE FUTURE FRESHMEN...
WHAT IS YOUR FIRST IMPRESSION?
Jasper, 5 VWO - Groningen I didn’t really like the outside of the building; luckily the inside is slightly better. The atmosphere is good, but I'm going to look around a bit more. I have also been to IO but I think I’m going to choose Architecture.
Geert-Jan, 6 VWO – Barneveld I think the models and buildings in the Orange hall look all very interesting. When I see those, I really want to design something myself. My impression is positive, but I am still doubting between BK and IO. But I like the faculty and I can see myself walking around here.
Wouter, 6 VWO – Amersfoort I already visited TB, so that’s very different from Architecture but I’m open to anything. It takes some time getting used to this new environment, because everything is so huge! I wonder if the faculty is not too big and if the teachers have enough contact with their students. TU Twente is, for example, more local. I think that will fit me better. Yet the TU Delft is better known, so I don’t know what I will choose.

Phong, 5 VWO – Groningen When we walked up to the building, I found it very old and maybe even ugly, but the inside is rather beautiful! My impression is positive, it could be an option for me but I don’t know yet. I have to walk around a little bit more to get a better impression.

Tamara, 5 VWO – Culomborg We just came from the Aula and fortunately this building is much nicer! The other was just like a retirement home. I think the Orange Hall is very beautiful and the atmosphere is good. My impression is positive but I am still undecided.
Esmée, 6 VWO – Breda Last year I visited IO , but I didn’t quite like it. That’s why I am visiting Architecture now. The introduction lecture was good and I think I have a clear picture about the study now. As I expected it is very creative and technical at the same time and that’s exactly what I am looking for. My first impression is positive!

Tessa, 5 VWO – Culomborg My first impression is more positive than I expected. I would really like to study Architecture and I get the impressions that it is a very broad study. I find the building with all its colors beautiful. It's also a bit confusing, but maybe that’s because of the Open House.
Jasper, 6 VWO – Nijkerk I really like the idea of having an old building as a faculty. For example in Eindhoven everything is much more modern. Yet of course this is not a decisive factor. I get the idea that the study focuses more on working with models and materials, rather than working with the computer. I would want to do both, I think.
