Our study programmes

Zuyd offers a wide range of study programmes and short courses that are focused on the interests of students and the needs of the (Eu)regional, national and international labour market. Most of them are taught in Dutch, but a couple are in English and therefor suitable for international students.

International focus

Zuyd University of Applied Sciences has a strong international focus. Thanks to our location in the heart of Europe, close to the borders with Belgium and Germany, cross-border cooperation comes naturally. Students have the opportunity to study and do internships abroad, and many of our programmes are taught in English, with students and lecturers from all over the world. In this way, we prepare students for a career in an international environment, encourage international cooperation, and foster an open mindset.
