University College Maastricht or UCM is a liberal arts college that is part of Maastricht University in Maastricht, the Netherlands. Founded only in 2002, it is the second of its kind in the Netherlands. The college offers an honours program with a high workload for motivated students.

University College Maastricht is a liberal arts college, providing Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees, which takes three years to complete.

The College provides intensive guidance to help you make the right choices.
