About the international vibe

Hugo MartinezFormer Exchange student from Spain Campus Delft

“ Instead of working on a project on my own, I have the opportunity

to work with students from all over the world. We are making an electric car together. The car is important, of course, but being in

the Netherlands is also a nice change of scenery. The campus is so different

– it’s green and everything here is infused with innovation. ”

HERE’S WHY!

There are many good reasons to study in Holland. Dutch education is one of the most innovative and forward thinking systems in the world. It’s based on student-led learning, debate and hands-on experience. Holland also offers a high standard of living at a fairly low cost. Dutch society is liberal and open-minded with a vibrant cultural scene. You’ll be part of a dynamic cosmopolitan and multi-cultural community right in the heart of Europe. We’re a small country with a big international presence and boast the 18th largest economy in the world. Some of the world’s biggest multinationals, including Philips, Heineken, KLM, Shell, ING Bank and Unilever are Dutch. Sony, Sara Lee and Microsoft all have their European head offices here. It’s an accessible country too. Visas are easy to obtain and you don’t have to worry about speaking Dutch - almost everyone speaks English.

The Netherlands vs. HollandOur official name is ‘The Kingdom of the Netherlands’. Holland only consists of two of our 12 provinces - North and South Holland. But we usually use the name Holland when we refer to the whole country. To make things even more confusing the word ‘Dutch’ is used to refer to someone or something from Holland.

About the capital of law

Diana Carolina BedoyaFormer International and European Law student from Colombia

“ I love The Hague. I’m studying International and European Law and this is the perfect

place for that. The Hague is known as the ‘capital of law’. Here, you can find

the International Criminal Court and the International Court of Justice. Also, the city

is really internationally oriented. THUAS students are involved in many events and there are many projects where we get the

chance to debate. What I really like is that we can use the library at the Peace Palace. It’s so cool to be able to study in such a

historical and meaningful environment. ”

About her study choice

Taylor Mae BouwmanEuropean Studies fast-track studentfrom the Netherlands

“Studying at a university of applied sciences suits me really well. In comparison to a research university, the way of educating focuses more on your skills. When you are required to do a

presentation, you will be first taught how to present yourself. How do you make sure

people listen to you? Another difference is the level of personal attention. My tutor is sincerely concerned with my well-being. Lecturers will greet you in the hallway and

know who you are. ”

The difference between a university of applied sciences and a research university

There are two types of universities in the Netherlands - traditional research universities (WO) and universities of applied sciences (HBO). Both offer bachelor’s and master’s programmes, but vary in their teaching methods.

HBO universities, like THUAS, put the emphasis on practical tuition and focus on your future career. You’ll learn by working on ‘real life’ projects in close cooperation with the outside world.

At a HBO university such as THUAS, you will do a compulsory internship or work placement to apply the theory you have learned into practice.

We focus on training and career preparation and work closely with professionals to make sure that our programmes are cutting edge and industry relevant. Businesses and institutions help design our curricula, which means they are hands-on, solution based and market ready. Our lecturers are working professionals, who’ll give you a first-hand insight into their field.

WO universities tend to run more theory and research based courses and students attend larger lectures and work independently. HBOs have a more personal approach with smaller classes.

Please note: A THUAS bachelor will not necessarily qualify you for a master at a WO university in the Netherlands - you may need to take additional courses.

At THUAS we currently run 43 full-time bachelor’s programmes, 11 of which are taught fully in English. Our bachelor’s programmes normally take four years to complete. However, some of our programmes are offered both in three and four years and some are offered only in three years. Please read the admission requirements carefully to see for which programme you are eligible.

All students go on an internship for one semester (half the academic year).

A bachelor’s programme is a natural progression for many after high school and that first step into higher education. They can vary in structure, from research based to more practical courses.

At THUAS, all of our bachelor’s degrees are founded on international and practical approaches, personal development and academic content. You’ll be taught through a mix of lectures, small group seminars, tutorials, self-guided study, individual assignments and exams, finishing with your thesis.

Manufacturing of everyday products such as food & drinks, coatings, cosmetics, medicines, etc. requires industrial production processes. In order to fully understand these processes, knowledge of Chemistry, Physics, Biology and Food Technology is essential. Within the PFT programme, you will be trained to master these disciplines to the level where you can design/develop, research, troubleshoot or even optimize these processes. Additionally, concepts such as safety, sustainability, social responsibility and internationalization will be introduced and used.

Right from the beginning you will be participating in projects that are as close as possible to the work field. The necessary theory will be provided as lectures and workshops. Participating in these projects will help you to choose a minor and an internship (either in The Netherlands or abroad) later in the programme.

In the final year you can specialize into a chemical- or food technologist. You round off the PFT programme with a graduation internship at a company.

English with many different people. ”Alina’s English wasn’t up to the required level to enrol directly in a Bachelor’s programme, so she signed up for a 12-month course at PREP School. Now halfway through the PREP School course, she feels she has made the right choice.

She’s also pleased she has some Russian classmates and gets on so well with her fellow students from countries like China, Iran and Colombia. The opportunity offered by the PREP School of making friends and networking while at the same time improving your English means for Alina that the hard work is alternated with lots of fun. She enjoys the strong focus on language skills. “After just two months, my English had already improved to the point where I understood much more and no longer stumbled when I pronounced tricky words. Speaking and thinking in English is now much easier for me. We also learn about different customs and societies.” With her PREP School diploma in her pocket she feels she has every reason to face the future with confidence.

About visiting open days

Ásíyih Barker International and European Law studentfrom the United States of America

“ I was very calculating in my choice of school. I am from the USA, so I had to be

really sure that I wanted to live here. Before I made my decision, I went to open days at

Groningen, Maastricht and other universities, including THUAS. I travelled all around

Holland and I saw something in THUAS which was different. Here was a school where you get taught skills, like how to work in teams.

That was so exciting to me. I realised this was a big part of what’s important in education

and what employers look for. ”

Experience has shown that students living in the Netherlands for one year spend between € 800 and € 1100 a month.

An average room in the Netherlands costs somewhere between € 400 and € 700 a month. The costs depend on the type of room you have, what is included in the rent, if the room is furnished, if you will have to share your room (or the facilities) and the size of the room. Don’t forget to budget about € 650 per year for medical insurance. Bachelors first year students will also need to invest from € 500 to € 800 on books and materials.

To give you some approximate figures, bread and rice cost around € 1.50 at the supermarket. A return train ticket from The Hague to Amsterdam costs around € 24.40.

EU and EEA students don’t need a visa to enter the Netherlands. All other students in general require an entry visa and/or residence permit.

If you do require a visa or residence permit, the good news is that THUAS will apply on your behalf. All you have to do is transfer a package fee and upload the relevant documents. More information about the procedure and documentation will be provided after acceptance.
