Student review [#73831] for Information Technology
at NHL Stenden University of Applied Sciences

I really enjoy studying at this school and generally like the program. The opportunities it gives us to go abroad and the connections it has helped me build have been amazing. This course has provided me with a great network, a good structure in OOP programming, and an in-depth view of programming. It mainly focuses on software engineering, of course. The DBE education can be quite a struggle for some at the beginning.

The program structure involves more of a group project workflow, so being able to be a team player is crucial. This gives you the chance to meet different cultures.

On the negative side, sometimes the disorganization of the course can be an issue. Sometimes we feel lost, and the teacher help is not quite there as well, but I heard from the newest students that it has been better. The canteen can also be quite a shock for newcomers as there is not really food served in Emmen; it’s more sandwich-based.

Generally, in the program, you will learn OOP, software engineering, databases, product management, scrum, and a few other programming principles.

There is still quite a room for improvement, hence why student feedback is crucial for our course. The teachers are always looking out for feedback and asking for it.
