Avans University of Applied Science

As one of the best universities in the Netherlands, AVANS does itself justice by having a selection of experienced teachers and well thought out curriculums and project. The International Business study, which is fully taught in English, sets you up for a promising career in a variety of different functions. You will undergo courses to improve your marketing, financial and entrepreneurial skills and implement these into several projects which fit the courses really well. You are left to your own responsibilities in finding your way into the work field, with very little to no help while finding your internship abroad. The study also helps you get acquainted with foreign cultures since you will often find international students within your project groups. Overall, I am really pleased with how this study helps you prepare yourself for the business world where you are aiming at.

Avans is a Nice school, with my bachelor international business I have alot of different courses form mostly people who worked in the workfield for a long time. lso there is alot of connection with the work field trough projects with real companies. This is very nice and keeps you motivated. also the upportunity to go abroad twice is something I really like. my downside of the school is that the classes are quitte big and project are sometimes not monitored very well.

What Avans University is doing different than other Dutch universities, is that they lay the responsibility with the students. In a normal school week, we have (on average) 10 contact hours with a teacher present, the rest is all self-study or doing projects with your classmates. You have to take responsibility and be independent to be a student at Avans.

The teachers are always ready to help, lectures are challenging, but we are able to ask questions all the time. All the information is given about every subject. Unfortunately there is a lot what we have to do outside of the lectures and check everything ourselves since the lecturers don’t say everything sometimes.

Avans is a great school. In the past two years I have learned a lot about marketing, business and languages. The teachers are involved and will help you when you need it. The student life in Den Bosch is great. There are a lot of different bars and activities. This makes Den Bosch a good student city.
