  7. Growth in intake of international bachelor's students stops

    Onderwijs

    This year saw fewer international students start their Bachelor's degree programmes at Dutch universities than last year. However, due to a mild increase in enrolments in Master's programmes, the international intake as a whole remained stable. This became clear from preliminary enrolment numbers from Dutch universities. One possible explanation is that universities are focusing less on international recruitment, and have offered more information on the shortage in student housing. Jouke de Vries, UNL Deputy President: "These numbers show that the growth in international intake at universities has stopped. Bachelor's programmes actually saw fewer new international students enrol this year. As such, we urge the government not to take any radical measures that would damage the quality of our education and research."

  12. Science for the generations of tomorrow

    Dutch universities are unique because of the intertwining of research, education and innovation. They train much-needed talents of the highest quality; the generations of tomorrow. Even now, our scientists are already translating outcomes of pioneering research into answers to major and topical societal issues, for example in the fields of sustainability, AI, safety, data science, education, nitrogen, food security, legal security and health. Students are trained with investigative and entrepreneurial skills in old and new fields. The universities do this from solid connections with each other, with the region and with the social partners around them. Through international cooperation and by attracting international talent, Dutch universities are among the world's best and can provide the knowledge that takes our country forward. From that mission, universities can and want to play a key role in these times of major transitions in the areas of energy, digitalisation, wealth distribution and geopolitical relations.
