Nyenrode Business University

About Nyenrode

Nyenrode Business Universiteit works on a sustainable future by stimulating our students and participants to grow into responsible leaders. We do so by offering them a combination of academic theory, practical relevance, and personal development. At Nyenrode, you learn to debate, convince and translate theory into practice.

Nyenrode is the only private university in the Netherlands, founded in 1946 by business and for business. We have always been internationally oriented. Nyenrode is located in two iconic locations: Amsterdam and Breukelen.

Nyenrode Business Universiteit Amsterdam is located in the historic block 'De Vijf Keizers' (The Five Emperors) in the heart of the city. This privileged location stimulates new connections between business and academia; contributing to our ambitious national and international goals. Nyenrode aims to become a top-20 European Business School. The university's expansion in Amsterdam is deeply connected with this ambition.

Nyenrode Business Universiteit Breukelen is situated on a historical estate with a thirteenth-century castle at its heart. Our main campus emphasizes the importance of community and networking in the development of responsible leaders.

Nyenrode offers intensive academic education as well as short-term and longer-term programs in the fields of business, management, accountancy, controlling, and fiscal law. We also undertake scientific research in these areas.
