Wittenborg University of Applied Science [Wuas]
Wittenborg University of Applied Sciences in Apeldoorn Netherlands has over 30 years track record and positions itself as an international management and business school as it offers all of its programmes in English. WUAS believes in promoting excellence in teaching and learning in all their program offerings, whether it be their International Business and Management or the entrepreneurial bachelor’s program. Apeldoorn is located very strategically on the criss-cross of 2 important motorways in Netherlands, one of which reaches Hannover in Germany and the other reaches south of Netherlands all the way from the North, because of which many logistic and distribution companies have set up their bases. Students of WUAS in their Apeldoorn campus are at an advantage because of this and WUAS in turn contributes its mite to enhance the region’s economy.
WUAS provides the best possible environment for students and staff, where internationalisation, diversity and ethics lay the foundations of successfully applied, research-informed global learning.
The Entrepreneurial Bachelor’s programme in their Amsterdam campus is very much tailored to meet the requirements of international entrepreneurs coming to the Netherlands.
The Wittenborg University is a highly motivated and results-driven organisation operating in a diverse and multicultural environment, in which more than 100 nationalities work, study, innovate and socialise together. Wittenborg graduates are its greatest ambassadors and they consider themselves as world citizens, nurturing respect and a sense of achievement.
Wittenborg’s Degree programmes are triple European accredited, viz. the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture & Science (NVAO), FIBAA (German, Swiss & Austrian) and the University of Brighton (UK). Their curriculum provides Company visits, real-life projects, internship and guest speakers from allied businesses. Wittenborg’s partnerships give its students plenty of local and regional engagement with government, companies and organisations. They live up to the adage: Thinking globally but acting locally.
The Research centre in Wittenborg promotes regional, European and international projects in areas such as sustainability, technology, social innovation, education & health care.
WUAS believes in a customer-oriented approach, by making the learning an enjoyable process that allows students to develop their goals and aspirations and provides them with constant support and the required study pressure to achieve those targets. A personal approach, family-like environment and personal tutoring, guidance and support complete the picture.
