To apply for an undergraduate degree at a Dutch research university you must have completed six years of university preparatory education in the Netherlands ( VWO) or have an equivalent international diploma. For more information on the main differences between research universities and universities of applied sciences, see below. A Bachelor's degree usually takes three years to complete at a research university as opposed to four years at a university of applied sciences. There are 14 research universities and 41 universities of applied sciences in the Netherlands. Universities of applied sciences, on the other hand, are more practical and profession-oriented, designed for those looking to enter a particular career type upon graduation. Research universities, like the UG, offer highly academic, research-oriented programmes focused on specific subjects. The respected international reputation of the Dutch higher education sector is built on its binary system, with a distinction between research-oriented universities and professional higher education institutions (universities of applied sciences).
