The Amsterdam University College, Netherlands is offering up to EUR 16,550 per year towards the cost of the applied study programme in the ASF Scholarships program.
Why choose to study at the Amsterdam University College? At Amsterdam University College, students are free to choose a major within the sciences, social sciences, or humanities. The University has quickly distinguished itself with a strong offering in the sciences.
The college was founded in 2009 as a joint initiative of the University of Amsterdam and the VU Amsterdam with a particular focus on the natural sciences. Although AUC has its own campus, students can also use facilities of both parent universities. The college is part of a recent wave of university colleges in the Netherlands which have introduced liberal arts education to the country.
AUC offers Bachelor of Arts degrees in the social sciences and humanities and a Bachelor of Science degree in science, which are pursued by about 50%, 15%, and 33% of the student body, respectively. The curriculum is strongly interdisciplinary; within each field, students have to pursue at least two disciplines. AUC further emphasizes its ‘academic core’, which makes up a large part of the curriculum.
