Keuzegids Masters: the Dutch university guide to Master's programmes

The Keuzegids Masters is the Dutch university guide to Master’s programmes. It's an independent handbook that carries out an annual review of Master’s programmes in the Netherlands on the basis of its own methodology. Points of assessment include programme content, lecturers, assessment, career preparation and ambience. The Keuzegids Masters largely relies on student opinions from the National Student Survey.
