About Windesheim

Windesheim is one of the Netherlands' top-3 universities of applied sciences, known for its personal approach, small classes (15-20 students) and for working closely with the business community and public institutes.

Windesheim’s mission is to make an active contribution to an inclusive and sustainable society. We strive to do so by educating valuable and principled professionals and by conducting practice-oriented research. 

Social Responsibility

An inclusive society is one in which each individual has equal rights and opportunities to make an active contribution. A society based on values such as equality, solidarity, human dignity and embracing diversity. Those values play an important role in our education and set the course for our research. Inclusiveness to our university means that we regard each student as a unique person with his/her own strengths as well as limitations. This is why we support every student (young adults, professionals, newcomers and alumni alike) as best we can in finding and developing his/her own talents. Each student is given the opportunity, with personalized counselling, to outline a personal and challenging learning pathway, with due consideration of current and future requirements in the professional field.
