Student review [#6007]
at HU University of Applied Sciences Utrecht

The HU is a very large university of applied sciences, (HBO level) it is the largest university in the Netherlands and I think this affects a bit the overall organisation.
Many processes take up longer than expected (receive grades, getting documents processed etc…)
As an international student, the university could do much more to create a community feeling. Currently, the number of internationals in my program is low, about 30% of the total (the remaining are Dutch natives) and the integration between these is poor.
Concerning the content of the program, IBMS gives you a good taste of many areas of business. The content does almost never go deep into the subject, except for the specialisation you are able to choose during your 3rd year (finance, management or marketing). A good point in favour is the practical approach (assignments related to actual companies).
Most of the professors are competent, international and readily available to answer questions or assisting.
