Saxion University of Applied Sciences

Enschede, Netherlands

“Saxion University of Applied Sciences is one of the largest institutions of higher education in the Netherlands, with close to 27,000 students.

Saxion University has a rich history – its roots can be traced back to 1875. A merger of two educational institutions, the Hogeschool Enschede and Hogeschool IJselland, paved the way for Saxion University in its present form in 1998.

This merger enabled Saxion to build further on its strong position in Dutch higher education and since then Saxion University has come to be recognised as an important centre of expertise at a regional, national and international level.”
