What I do

As coordinator for (international) bachelor's degree marketing within the Faculty of Humanities, I help programmes put themselves (better) on the study electorate map. I do this by looking together with the programmes at what they want to convey to their target group(s) and why. I then help them reach their target group as effectively and efficiently as possible. I also take care of all resources for this, from the Bachelor Open Day's to the study voter website with good texts, videos and interviews. In addition, I am editor-in-chief of the GW Instagram @humanitiesuu. Here, I try to bring our diverse faculty together by telling staff and student stories and sharing relevant events and news.

What kind of questions can you come to me with?

A few examples...

  • I would like to revise the texts on the study choice website (uu.nl/bachelors/programme), can you take a look?
  • I want to create a new promo video (Burning Questions) for my programme, where to start?
  • I would like new testimonials (in video or text format) on the website, how do I organise that?
  • What kind of sessions can I best organise during the (online) open days?
  • I would like to reach out to all GW staff and students with a cool event, news item or research. What can you do on @humanitiesuu?
