On 19 December, the Keuzegids Universiteiten for 2025 was published. In it, six bachelor's programmes at VU Amsterdam are awarded the designation 'Top programme.' Two bachelours from the Faculty of Humanities were among the prizes.
Creative Technology
New to the list of 'Top Programs' is the bachelor's program Creative Technology (CreaTe). This program from the University of Twente has also been offered at VU Amsterdam since last academic year. CreaTe is a technical university course where design and technology come together. During the study, students learn to find innovative solutions to current social challenges.
PPE: Philosophy, Politics and Economics
VU Amsterdam scores above average this year in the field of 'interdisciplinary'. This is in line with VU's strong focus on connecting different disciplines and its ambition to offer groundbreaking research and education that contributes to a better world. The bachelor's in Philosophy, Politics and Economics is a great example of this, and we are proud of the extended title of 'Top Program' for PPE.
