General Information

We are the Amsterdam-based branch of a public university of applied sciences which has branches in the main cities of the NL. The total number of students is approx. 30,000. Our core business is educating students to bachelor level and we are also involved in a variety of (inter)national activities & collaborations with a global network of partner institutes covering a wide number of areas. We carry out research, run a training academy for professionals and are involved in a number of community-based projects. We receive government funding.

Mission and Objectives

This description applies specifically to the Creative Business Department in  Amsterdam/Diemen. We aim to create a learning community in which the synthesis of cultural, social & religious identities result in a fruitful environment for developing the skills, knowledge & attitudes necessary in dynamic metropolis. Hence diversity, internationalisation, flexibility and cross-cultural communication take a central position in our programmes and pedagogy.

Main Projects / Activities

Apart from projects in Senegal, Ghana, China, Indonesia, & Mongolia we are also involved in a number of projects in the EuroMed area. Most of these projects are centered around the theme of cultural tourism and involved collaborative research. We have worked in Istanbul with Yeditepe University, in Alexandria with the High Institute for Tourism, Hotels and Computer El-Seyouf and the Alexandria & Mediterranean Research Centre at the Library of Alexandria.  Since many of our students have a Moroccan background we have a keen interest in Morocco and have been working with various institutes and running study trips since 2007. Most of our projects are short-term and involve both students & staff exchanges.
