    Not an official deadline. With a Dutch address you log in with DigiD, which the government says takes about five days. Without one you upload a scan or photo of your passport or EU identity card and Studielink verifies it automatically. Either way, do it well before 15 January.

What it is

The programme has an international slant with an emphasis on Europe, and links to large international companies. Year one introduces psychology, sociology, economics and management studies and starts applying them to work, organisations and people management. Year two combines these perspectives on strategic, financial and managerial aspects of HR, employee development, health and wellbeing, and teaches you to advise organisations on people policy. In year three you explore people management in an international setting and use a mobility window to study abroad, do an internship or take a minor, before writing a bachelor's thesis. Typical courses include Strategic HRM, Talent Management and Cross Cultural HRM.
