Institutions
There are eighteen research universities in Holland that offer international programmes and courses. The majority of these are government-funded, but there are also some private research universities.
The universities of applied sciences ('hogescholen') offer programmes that focus on the practical application of arts and sciences.
Institutes for international education (IE) offer advanced training courses in a wide range of fields. Most of these are part of a research university.
Institutions other than universities of applied sciences, research universities or institutes for international education may also offer international degree programmes or short courses.
