Programs available at HU This combination of conveying both knowledge and skills is key to the university experience at HU. As Lorenza explained, “The HU definitely allows a practical university experience. Although there is theory included in the courses, most of the projects consist in applying the theory to brands and experiences. It is an approach that not only helps students to be creative but also to be prepared for a future job.”

Within Rotterdam is a well regarded business school, the Rotterdam Business School, which is a part of the Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences (RUAS). The business school offers bachelor's and master's degree programs as well as summer schools for training specific skills.

This public university specialises in undergraduate programs, though it does also offer some graduate studies, and its business school has a practical approach with concepts such as its own nano-incubator to encourage students to dip their toes into the pool of entrepreneurship as early on as possible.

It is now home to 18,000 students and 141 degrees (offered in 11 faculties and five departments).

They also offer an English preparatory program for people who are not confident in their English but desire to attend a university instructed in this language.

Many undergraduate students praise the fact that their professors are approachable and the classes project-oriented. UTA also encourage students to branch out into other classes in order to experience a more balanced education. Through this practical learning environment, the university bolsters students for life after graduation, giving them the necessary experience and flexibility to hold down a job.

With just under 60,000 students at the university and a population of around 200,000, the city is very much a student town with approximately a quarter of the population currently studying.
