 Welcome to University College Tilburg. UC Tilburg is an international academic learning community with its own teaching facilities and dedicated staff housed on the campus of Tilburg University in the Netherlands. We offer a state-of-the-art Liberal Arts and Sciences Bachelor programme. Liberal Arts and Sciences is a small-scale, interactive and intensive programme. It will intellectually challenge you, sharpen your critical thinking and teach you to find creative solutions. It combines different scientific disciplines to understand complex global issues. You can take courses taught by committed and highly experienced professors on a wide variety of subjects. Many of our courses are taught by two professors with entirely different backgrounds. They jointly teach the same course and debate the subject in class. This is what we call Team Teaching, our unique way to create interdisciplinary courses. Besides, almost half of your fellow students are international. What does our curriculum look like? In the first year, you take courses in the Common Core. The Common Core introduces you to a variety of disciplines and creates a solid basis for approaching complex issues. In the next two years, you focus on a specific field which we call the elective major. By choosing an elective major, you gain in-depth knowledge in one of our five disciplines, humanities, law, business and management, social sciences or cognitive neuroscience. However, even in the elective major, many courses continue the interdisciplinary approach. In addition, you are free to choose from a wide range of electives. We have a radically open program with many options to choose courses tailor-made to your interests, either to deepen your elective major, to broaden your perspective or to acquire more knowledge and skills. You can choose to do these courses at Tilburg University, at another Dutch university or at one of our many partner universities abroad during an exchange semester. Together, the electives and the elective major courses make up two-thirds of the program. As a student at UC Tilburg, you become part of a close-knit and active community on the thriving international campus of Tilburg University. If you wish to live together with fellow students, we offer an optional residential setting in the city centre. In addition to studying, there are many opportunities to participate in the social, cultural and academic activities organised by Extramurus, our own Students Association. After graduating from University College Tilburg, most alumni pursue a master's degree. Our graduates have been accepted at more than 90 master programs in the Netherlands and abroad. We have the know-how to assist you in getting admitted. See you next semester at UC Tilburg. The best investment in your future.
