HAN University of Applied Sciences is located in the historic eastern Dutch cities of Arnhem and Nijmegen. We are an international institution that offers outstanding degree courses to over 34,000 students.
Personal and professional development
At HAN, we provide an inspiring study environment that is perfectly suited to your personal and professional development. Our classrooms therefore have a small scale set-up, with 20-30 students in a class, ensuring that you receive plenty of personal attention.
The interactive and student-centred teaching style gives you the needed guidance as well as the freedom to develop professionally.
Theory and practice
Our courses combine a solid theoretical basis with practical application in the field. This way you are well positioned to enter the job market as soon as you graduate. Professional tasks therefore play a crucial role.
Throughout your studies, you continually work on case studies taken from professional practice. And during the work placement you face the ultimate challenge: putting your theoretical knowledge into practice by solving real problems in real working environments.
International setting
HAN’s Bachelors and Masters courses have a strong international focus. During your studies, you will be part of an international classroom with students from all over the world.
While working together on projects, you pick up on the different cultural habits and ideas of your classmates. This way you learn how to effectively work with people from different cultures and backgrounds. This is an essential skill for a successful international career.
What’s more, you can broaden your international experience by studying abroad at one of our partner universities or doing a work placement abroad.
Arnhem and Nijmegen: a region of opportunities
HAN University of Applied Sciences is just a few kilometres from the German border, but also within easy distance from Amsterdam, London, Paris, Brussels and Berlin.
The area has excellent rail and road connections to anywhere you might like to travel in the Netherlands or other European countries.
This part of the Netherlands is also an attractive place for multinational companies because of its location between the major port of Rotterdam and the German industrial area.
It makes for excellent work placement opportunities during your studies and good job perspectives after graduation.
