For whom is Study Abroad?
The study abroad programme is designed for second, third or fourth year students currently enrolled at universities as well as graduates of diploma and Bachelor courses. The Study Abroad Programme enables current students to combine a period of residence abroad with an educational programme. You will gain academic credit towards your degree in your country of origin.
Why study abroad?
The study abroad experience is a perfect way to immerse and integrate in a new culture and get introduced to the well renowned Dutch education system. You will be able to take classes alongside students from all over the world and in the same time gain first hand experience of the famous Dutch problem based learning educational system. Students can choose from unique minors like for example Adventure Tourism, Cruise Management and Real Estate Management or learn the secrets of European Retailing.
The programme
All students will start with an introduction week, introducing them to the learning system (Problem Based Learning) and to the Dutch culture. Our CHN Study Abroad Programmes, for both International students and students from EU member countries, commence twice a year, in the autumn (fall) and spring semesters. Each semester is divided into two periods. Students can select two minors per semester. You can come for one or two semesters. Students choosing to come for two semesters have the opportunity to follow their second semester at campus sites in Qatar, Thailand, South Africa or China.
