VU Amsterdam and the University of Amsterdam (UvA) cooperate intensively in the provision of various Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programmes to enable science students to benefit as much as possible from the expertise of both institutions. This also allows both institutions to offer a wide range of science subjects at an even higher level of excellence.
The science faculties offer seven joint degrees, while other degree programmes also share some programme components. For a student of VU Amsterdam, this means that you will take one or more courses at the University of Amsterdam in the buildings at Sciencepark or Watergraafsmeer. Likewise, University of Amsterdam students will be able to take courses on the VU Amsterdam campus.
As soon as your registration as a joint degree student is completed, you will be registered as a regular student at both universities. If you participate in other cooperative programmes, you will be registered as a secondary subject student at the partner institution. The relevant information is shared between VU Amsterdam and the University of Amsterdam through the registration interface.
Please note: this only applies if you are fully registered at VU Amsterdam or the University of Amsterdam!
