Master's programmes

Vanaf september 2017 gaat Economische geografie verder als specialisatie binnen het nieuwe masterprogramma Human Geography. Je kunt je daarom niet meer aanmelden voor Economische geografie.

Als leraar Aardrijkskunde draag je je interesse en kennis op professionele wijze over op anderen. Ook in andere educatieve functies kom je tot je recht.

GIMA focuses on the management and application of geographical information from a scientific perspective.

In the Human Geography programme, you will study urban regions and their economic developments from various academic perspectives and thematic angles. You will find possible solutions for contemporary and upcoming (economic) challenges of cities.

Innovation Sciences is the study of how new technologies are transformed into marketable innovations, explaining how innovation and innovation systems work.

International Development Studies focuses on current development issues and teaches conceptual, theoretical, and empirical knowledge of trends and topics on the development agenda.

The Master's programme Spatial Planning trains you to solve conflicting interests on urban land.

Sustainable Business and Innovation is the study of sustainable business challenges and technological and non-technological options that can be used to innovate in a sustainable way.

Sustainable Development is the study of scientific solutions and societal interventions for an environmentally accountable society.

In this master you are trained to analyse increasing urbanisation, growing environmental threats and uneven economic globalisation. You will learn to formulate effective policy recommendations to make cities and regions more viable.

Note: from September 2017 the Urban Geography programme will merge with Economic Geography to form the new Human Geography programme. As a result it is no longer possible to apply for Urban Geography.
