International and European Law THUAS

What International and European Law THUAS does

International and European Law is a Bachelor-level programme offered by The Hague University of Applied Sciences (THUAS), a Dutch institution of higher education operated by Stichting HBO Haaglanden and headquartered at Johanna Westerdijkplein 75 in The Hague. The programme is part of a broader portfolio that also includes Master, Post-graduate, Exchange, Module, and Minor offerings delivered full-time or part-time, alongside six Centres of Expertise covering Cyber Security, Digital Operations & Finance, Global and Inclusive Learning, Governance of Urban Transitions, Health Innovation, and Mission Zero. THUAS serves a student body of nearly 26,000 drawn from 140+ countries, and has been a UNESCO Associated School since 2009, embedding peace, human rights, global citizenship, and sustainable development across its curriculum. The Hague location provides physical proximity to the International Court of Justice, the Permanent Court of Arbitration, embassies, and other international legal institutions — a core differentiator for the law programme.

The underlying technology stack is operational rather than productized: the Osiris student management system handles registration, document upload, and enrollment tracking, while the national Studielink system processes applications across degree programmes. THUAS has integrated ProctorExam for online test supervision and operates a Learning Analytics capability to tailor educational guidance. The GTM motion is direct-to-consumer, primarily via the thuas.com website, open days, shadow-student days, trial study days, and the Studielink enrollment system, supplemented by country agents in specific non-EU markets (e.g., China for the English Prep School).

Revenue is generated through statutory tuition (just over €2,500/year for EU/EEA students and Switzerland) and institutional tuition (over €9,500/year for non-EU/EEA students), billed annually; a €275 non-refundable housing administration fee for international students routed through partner housing providers; and managed-services administration of the €5,000 NL Scholarship funded by the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Science. Eight housing partners — DUWO, Roomplaza, The Social Hub, Geste Groep, Xior, HousingAnywhere, Homey Housing, and Holland2Stay — provide reserved accommodation quotas ranging from €450 to €1,135 per month. A formal partnership with Dutch Immigration Services (IND) supports student residence-permit processing for non-EU/EEA enrollees.
