Study in Netherlands

Netherlands is known to be an ideal country to study in. the country has some good education policies, ease of access for students among other things. Following are a few reasons why it is preferable to study in Netherlands for Indian students and many other country students

 English as a language in Netherlands 

 Netherlands is known for being a bilingual country. English is a widely spoken language in there. Because of this reason international travellers and students won’t feel pressured to learn a new language. As a matter of fact, many courses in Dutch universities are delivered in English. While learning Dutch language can help you merge into the country and its culture and the society, it is not mandatory or necessary. When you settle down in the Netherlands, you can take your time learning Dutch to integrate yourself further in the society.

 Graduation can take you places, builds your career globally

Many Dutch universities are known for being world class and on per with prestigious universities of UK and USA. Netherland despite being a non-English country can compete against the top English culture countries for the quality of education provided. Graduating from Netherlands will get you many opportunities in the country itself. Once you finish your degree, you can choose to pursue your career in Netherlands or you can take it globally as the degree would be widely respected and would easily open doors for you in countries like Europe and America. 

 The difference in Academics 

 The teaching method in Netherlands is significantly different from the typical Asian study culture. Instead of being told by professors and teachers on what to do and what to learn, you leave all that behind and figure out your own way of learning stuffs, make your own plans and research, and being active in the classes. For those who love to be an independent learner with curiosity, Netherlands study culture is perfect for them. Another difference would be the way how relationships between teachers and students are maintained. In Netherlands its encouraged to walk up to your teachers and being friendly with them, requesting for guidance. If you are used to be shy and keep your distance from teachers out of respect, you would be deemed to have poor communication skills. 

 2 for the price of one is a norm

 Netherlands appreciates those who want to learn and helps them in any way possible. If you pay the statutory tuition fees for your first enrolment into a bachelor’s degree, you can do another degree simultaneously for free. This feature is widely available in many public universities in the country. In most Dutch universities you can choose any number of elective courses without paying any extra then you already have. Netherlands is a progressive country with a multicultural society, comprised of friendly people who will not waste their time on petty matters and cultural differences. There is a lot to be benefited from and to contribute back to the nation with a free mind full of enthusiasm.
