At Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, independent thinking is the fabric of academic life.
Students dive into groundbreaking research alongside faculty who challenge conventional wisdom, whether they’re exploring sustainable technologies or questioning social inequalities. Across campus, debate and discovery foster an environment for questioning assumptions.
Between lectures, analyze urban planning while strolling through Vondelpark or discuss philosophy over stroopwafels at the local market.
Amsterdam’s rich history of tolerance and innovation provides the perfect backdrop for VU’s commitment to addressing society’s most pressing questions through rigorous scholarship and meaningful engagement with the world beyond academia.
