Dutch or English?

If you are a Dutch-speaking student, you can also opt for our Dutch-language track. The English-language track and the Dutch-language track of our programme are identical in terms of level and content. If you’re looking for a smoother transition to a fully English-taught programme, the Dutch-language track could be the right choice for you. 

Please note that the English-language track has a numerus fixus, meaning there are a limited number of places available (500) and you have to participate in the selection procedure. The application deadline for the English track is 15 January. The numerus fixus does not apply to the Dutch track and the application deadline for this track is 1 May.
