'The professors are really approachable'

Dennis Oostindie - Marketing 

'After finishing my Bachelor’s at another university, I needed a change. I chose the UvA because the Master’s programme in Business Administration is made-to-measure; you get to pick many courses yourself, rather than solely following the ones the university has selected for you. I also feel that the UvA focuses more on career opportunities than other universities do.'

'What surprised me most are definitely the professors. In comparison to my previous university, they are so much more approachable here. They are actively involved in helping you to get the career you wish to pursue, and are actually interested in your story.'

'I truly feel that I can use the knowledge I am gaining now, in my future career. The professors are extremely knowledgeable in their field and aware of current developments. This makes the programme up-to-date and relevant for today’s professional market.'

'There is an overall down-to-earth vibe in classes where students get along well; of course Amsterdam is a great place to study. The city has a vibrant student life and as many study associations organise events, it is easy to find new like-minded friends. After all, Amsterdam is an accepting city where everyone can find their place.'
