Internationalization in higher education in the Netherlands
key figures 2009

Nuffic is the Netherlands organization for international cooperation in higher education. We support the internationalization of Dutch higher education and scientific research and help improve access to higher education worldwide. This also involves the publication of studies and figures about the internationalization of Dutch higher education, to provide visibility into trends and developments in mobility.
Key Figures 2009 provides a quick overview of internationalization in higher education in the Netherlands. A distinction is made between diploma mobility, where the student aims to complete an academic programme and gain a diploma or a degree abroad, and credit mobility, where the student enriches his study ‘at home’ with a study component or a placement abroad.
An indication is given of foreign students in the Netherlands, where they come from and in which study phase they attend courses. Also the ten most popular Dutch universities are listed, in terms of absolute numbers of foreign students and in terms of the foreign student population as a percentage of the total student population of the university.
Furthermore, the number of Dutch students abroad is given, as well as the countries where most of them register. Finally, information is provided on percentages of graduates who went abroad during the course of their study, and on universities with high scores on outward credit mobility.
It is well known that Dutch society is very internationally oriented. Dutch universities who rank in the top ten in terms of percentages of foreign students out of their total student population and in terms of percentages of students gaining credits abroad during their study, can be considered to be even more internationally minded.
For more detailed information on the internationalization of Dutch education, please see the annual Internationalization Monitor of Education in the Netherlands 2008, which can be downloaded or ordered in print via www.nuffic.nl/mobility.

Nuffic is the Netherlands organization for international cooperation in higher education. Our motto is Linking Knowledge Worldwide. And everything we’ve done since our foundation in 1952 has been driven by this mission. Whichever way you look at it, Linking Knowledge Worldwide means bringing people together, because it’s knowledge that makes us unique as people. Linking knowledge means linking people. What we love about knowledge is that you can’t give it away. You can only share it with others. This sharing often leads to the creation of new knowledge. And so we add to the wealth of knowledge on our planet by communicating with each other and by forming networks to share it in. Nuffic is a proud exponent of Linking Knowledge Worldwide.
Nuffic works in line with Dutch government policy to serve students and higher education institutions in three key areas:
Capacity Building & ScholarshipsAdministrating international mobility programmes (scholarships) and institutional cooperation programmes.
CommunicationProviding information about higher education systems in the Netherlands and in other countries; providing credential evaluation services; providing information in the Netherlands about studying abroad, and in other countries about studying in Holland; promoting Dutch higher education in other countries; encouraging international mobility.
Knowledge & InnovationConducting studies into international cooperation in higher education; providing information to expert groups and consultation forums; transferring our knowledge of international cooperation in higher education through courses and seminars.
