Radboud University Online Open Day: How Does the Platform Work?

Radboud University Online Open Day: How Does the Platform Work?

Radboud University Online Open Day gives prospective students an opportunity to explore the university, study programmes and student life remotely. Through the online platform, participants can access their registered sessions, learn more about programmes, watch live presentations and submit questions directly to the university team. To help students make the most of the experience, Radboud University explains how the platform works and how participants can prepare before the Online Open Day begins.

How Do You Access the Online Open Day Platform?

Participants receive a personal link to the Radboud University Online Open Day platform by email. The link can be used from approximately half an hour before the Open Day begins. Through this personal link, students can access their individual programme for the day and find the sessions they previously registered to attend.

Find Your Registered Sessions

The “View Schedule” section shows the sessions you have registered for. This allows students to follow their personal Open Day schedule and see when each presentation is due to begin. The live stream for each session becomes available from its scheduled start time.

Explore the Programme Before the Presentation

Students can open a session approximately 10 minutes before its live stream begins. During this time, they can read additional information about the relevant study programme. Reviewing this information before the presentation can help prospective students identify the areas they want to focus on and prepare questions about the programme.

Ask Questions Through the Live Chat

Students can submit questions during Online Open Day presentations through the live chat. The university team aims to respond to questions as quickly as possible during the event. Participants cannot be seen or heard during the session, meaning they can follow the presentation privately while using the live chat when they want to ask a question.

Discover University Life Online

Radboud University’s Online Open Day extends beyond individual academic sessions. If students have time between presentations or after completing their schedule, they can use the platform menu to explore additional information. Visitors can learn more about what it is like to study at a university and discover Nijmegen, the city where Radboud University is located. This provides prospective students with a broader perspective on both the university and their potential study destination.

Prepare Your Technology Before the Open Day

Technical preparation can help make the Online Open Day experience run more smoothly. Radboud University provides several recommendations for students joining the event online.

The university recommends:

•⁠  ⁠Using a laptop or desktop computer

•⁠  ⁠Using Google Chrome as your browser

•⁠  ⁠Checking your internet connection beforehand

•⁠  ⁠Logging out of Brightspace if you are already a student using the platform

Radboud explains that Brightspace can affect live streams during the Online Open Day, making this an important step for existing users.

Make the Most of the Online Open Day

An Online Open Day provides a flexible way to explore a university from wherever you are located. Registering for relevant sessions, reading programme information in advance and using the live chat can help students make their experience more focused.

During the event, prospective students can pay particular attention to:

•⁠  ⁠Study programme content

•⁠  ⁠The wider university experience

•⁠  ⁠Opportunities available to students

•⁠  ⁠Questions specific to programmes they are considering

•⁠  ⁠Student life in Nijmegen

Radboud University Online Open Day brings study programmes, university life and information about Nijmegen together through one online platform. With a personal schedule, live presentations, programme information and live chat, prospective students can explore their study options and learn more about the university remotely.
