What's in store for you

The online courses mean you can study in your own time and engage in online sessions with course lecturers and peers. During the residential period, you take two core courses and connect directly with course lecturers, other students, and guest presenters. The programme also offers extracurricular activities.

During your studies, you are part of an international community of learners and can draw on this by working both individually and collaboratively on a variety of tasks. The tasks are designed around the questions you and your fellow students bring in from your own professional practices, school contexts and personal experiences.

As a university of applied sciences, NHL Stenden challenges its students, lecturers, researchers and partners to explore beyond existing solutions and possibilities, to discover and develop their talents so as to contribute to social progress. A quick glance through history shows that trailblazing ideas that make a difference often come from people daring to question what others assume. At NHL Stenden, we call these people groundbreakers. They have the guts to break down the status quo and make unobvious choices. They are unmissable in a world that is increasingly complex. And we believe that these groundbreakers can be anyone that simply dares to be themselves. It makes them original – and it makes NHL Stenden home of the originals.

Get ready to study in Holland

Studying abroad is often your chance to find out about different cultures. For some, studying in the Netherlands is a chance to explore a completely different culture, for others, there are more similarities. Our international students have found that sometimes the differences are in the details. Cheese is cheese, right? Or is it? When you study abroad, you’ll probably find that the things you now take for granted in your day-to-day life are no longer quite what you expect. Our students are more than happy to share their day-in-a-life experiences and show you what life can be like when you study abroad in the Netherlands.
