Research Universities
Apr 30, 2012
The research universities in Holland train students in academic study and research.
These institutions essentially train students in academic study and research. However, many study programmes also have a professional component and most graduates actually find work outside the research community. The universities vary in size, with enrollments ranging from 6,000 to 30,000 students. Altogether they enroll some 240,000 students.
