Why students choose HZ?
Why should you choose to study at HZ and become one of the approximately 400 foreign students we welcome each year?
Personal
HZ is known for its personal approach. Being a medium-sized university, HZ considers a personal approach of its students and staff of paramount importance. Consequently, classes are kept small and every student has his own study career coach. As an international student, you will acquire your chosen competencies by means of custom-made education, which will prepare you with great flexibility for a career in a multicultural and multiform society. We make sure that our faculty and staff are always there to help you.
Practice
If you wish to combine theory with practice, HZ is the place for you. All study programmes are practice-based and geared to the job market. You will go on field trips and company visits, receive guest lectures, do practically oriented assignments and will be offered subjects that link up with the professional reality. The workplacement is also an important part of your practical experience.
Programmes
Programmes at HZ are flexible and individually tailored. Furthermore, the internationally recognised bachelor/master structure makes it easier for our students to study or work in other countries. Each year, many HZ-programmes rank among the top ten programmes offered by universities of professional education in the Netherlands.
Place
The town of Vlissingen is a medium-sized tourist and student town. Sun, sea and beach characterise this pleasant place. Vlissingen offers everything you need for a wonderful student life!
International atmosphere and global understanding
As an international student you will find yourself in the classroom with students from many other nationalities. In our opinion this is the best way to get to know other cultures. Above all, you will find that due to the influence of all foreign students, the principle of global understanding is present in every single course and in daily life at our university.
Ranking
Each year, HZ ranks among the top ten universities of professional education in the Netherlands (54 in total). The new Choice Guide for Higher Education has recently come out. This guide describes the quality of all higher education in the Netherlands. Out of the 18 programmes the HZ has to offer, 9 are in the Dutch top 5. The HZ scores well over the national average!
The Integrated Water Management programme has been the best in the Netherlands for many years now. Other programmes such as Communication, Marketing, and Information and Communication Technology ranked among the top three these past few years.
