Student review [#20280] for International Business
at Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences

I’ve started studying International Business at HvA in 2019. The first year everything was super exciting, meeting new people was great as we all have many different cultural backgrounds which enriched my student experience even more. The courses in this program are well structured and there is a good organization among professors who are all professionals that know the right manners to approach the students and to teach the material in a comprehensible way. Moreover, the campuses have a variety of places to study, libraries with both silent areas and common rooms, as well as cafeterias in which you can have lunch or coffee with some of your peers. The environment is suitable for studying, as well as for hanging out with friends. The university also provides a wild variety of extracurricular activities to the students that are entertaining and beneficial.
With the Covid situation, things got a bit more complicated online, especially at the beginning of the pandemic. However, everyone got used to online teaching and studying quite quickly. The material was still covered, even though sometimes it will be difficult to keep on track.
I would surely recommend HvA and IB to everyone who has ambitions to study hard and likes to be among young, motivated people. The entire university team is always there to help their students, if they need to talk to anyone there is someone who can always help. This a great university to graduate from, as it certainly unlocks many future doors.
