Student Reviews
Representative reviews"A great decision"
I've grown so much academically and personally here. The best part: critique sessions are tough but push your work to the next level. If I'm honest, the timetable has some awkward 9am / Friday afternoon slots. On the city — English is universal; you don't need Dutch for the first year. Overall, if you're considering Built Environment at HZ University of Applied Sciences, I'd say go for it.
