De website van het Radboud Centrum Sociale Wetenschappen (RCSW) wordt verhuisd! Het merendeel van de informatie is vanaf heden beschikbaar op https://ru.nl/rcsw.

Sommige zaken (zoals de meeste formulieren) blijven nog een tijdje alleen beschikbaar op de oude website.

Onze excuses voor als je het gevoel krijgt heen-en-weer gestuurd te worden tussen de oude en de nieuwe website!
