UM in the Dutch ‘Keuzegids Universiteiten’ 2021
Five Maastricht University (UM) bachelor's programmes are ranked first in their category in the new Dutch ‘Keuzegids Universiteiten’ (University Choice Guide) 2021: Data Science and Artificial Intelligence, European Studies, Tax Law, Fiscal Economics and the Maastricht Science Programme. The latter also retains the designation 'Top Education'. This seal of quality also applies to the two University Colleges (Maastricht and Venlo). UM as a whole ranks fourth among all Dutch universities.
The Keuzegids Universiteiten compares all university degree programmes in the Netherlands to help students choose a suitable programme. The Keuzegids 2021 is largely based on the results of the National Student Survey of 2019, which means that the differences with last year's edition are relatively small. In categories where courses score close to each other, small differences sometimes have an impact on the ranking. For example, the UM bachelor's programmes in Law, Psychology and University College Venlo fall in the rankings this year, while the latter also retains the designation 'Top programme'.
