4 AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS Amsterdam is one of the greatest small cities in the world. From Amsterdam canals to world-famous Amsterdam museums and historical Amsterdam sights, it is one of the most romantic and beautiful cities in Europe. Amsterdam is also a city of tolerance and diversity. Amsterdam is a multicultural, multilingual and a student-friendly city in which English is generally understood and spoken. The city has an attractive business climate for a multitude of leading international companies that have their headquarters in Amsterdam, including ABN-AMRO, Heineken, TomTom and Philips. At the same time, Amsterdam is a creative and innovative hotspot and a hotbed for new ideas, with many opportunities for startup businesses. Amsterdam is a historic city with a long academic tradition and is a city that thrives on its innumerable cultures, nationalities and ethnicities. Our global exchange programme gives you the opportunity to experience a global perspective and become crossculturally versatile. You will feel at home in no time. Amsterdam is a compact metropolis, and not only in terms of business. Much to everyone s convenience, everything within Amsterdam can be easily reached by bicycle or the city s excellent public transport system. Amsterdam s central location, with easy access to Schiphol Airport and the Port of Amsterdam, makes it the ideal gateway to Europe. Brussels, Paris, Madrid, London and Berlin can all be reached within a few of hours. 4 MORE INFO vu.nl amsterdam.info iamsterdam.com Population 851,000 Currency Euro Time difference GMT+1

5 VU UNIVERSITY AMSTERDAM Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam Abraham Kuyper, Prime Minister of the Netherlands from 1901 to 1905, founded VU University Amsterdam in At first the university was only open to Reformed Christians and was entirely financed by their fund-raising efforts and donations. Since the 1960s, however, VU University Amsterdam has been open to everyone and funded in the same way as the other Dutch universities, although it still retains its tradition of Christian standards and values. This finds expression in the emphasis placed upon social involvement in the university s teaching and research programmes. Academic research and education at VU is characterized by a high level of ambition, and encourages free and open communications and ideas. VU stands for universal university values such as academic freedom and independence, which is reflected in our name ( VU is the Dutch abbreviation for free university ): free from the church, state and any commercial interest. VU University is a campus university: almost all university buildings are situated on one site, with teaching & research facilities and several leisure activities all together. It is located in the business district of Amsterdam, so that during your studies you can also get a glimpse of the business world. 5 vu.nl Guide for International Students University Videos

Students usually have their own bedroom. In most cases, bathroom, kitchen and living room must be shared with other students. Transport Amsterdam is a city of bikes, however the city is also served by an excellent public transport network. Public transport (metro, bus and tram) in Amsterdam is operated by GVB and trains in the Netherlands are run by Dutch Railways (NS). The OV-chipkaart (Public Transport Chip Card) is the main means of payment for all public transport. The OV-chipkaart can be topped up with credit in euros for travel anywhere within the Netherlands. There are different types of cards with varying rates and applicability. For public transport travel information, including detailed travel directions, visit
