- Wittenborg University of Applied Sciences works in much the same fields, chiefly AI and machine learning and software engineering, and it covers project management and telecommunications as well, and is far smaller, with about 1,200 students against roughly 4,500 here.
- The comparison with Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam is straightforward on subjects, since both focus on AI and machine learning and software engineering, and it covers bioinformatics and nanotechnologies as well, and is far larger, with about 32,000 students against roughly 4,500 here.
- Among national alternatives, Erasmus Universiteit Rotterdam stands out for its focus on AI and machine learning and software engineering, and it is public, whereas this school is private, and also offers master's and doctoral programmes.
- Amsterdam University College overlaps with this school on AI and machine learning and software engineering, so the two are easy to compare, and it is far smaller, with about 900 students against roughly 4,500 here, and runs the same bachelor's programmes.
Most Similar Schools Abroad
- Haute École Léonard de Vinci offers an international parallel to this school, with ergonomics, AI and machine learning and software engineering as common ground; it also offers master's programmes and covers industrial design and automation as well.
- If this school is on your list for AI and machine learning and software engineering, Dartmouth College in the United States deserves a comparison, because it is larger, enrolling about 7,000 students against roughly 4,500 here, and is also a private institution.
- Students considering a move abroad can look at Haute École de la Ville de Liège in Belgium, where AI and machine learning and software engineering also form the core, and it is slightly smaller, at about 3,500 students against roughly 4,500 here, and is public, whereas this school is private.
- Seen from abroad, Princeton University (the United States) is a close relative on subject matter, since AI and machine learning and software engineering are central to both, and it also offers master's and doctoral programmes and covers project management and physics as well.
- Looking internationally, John Cabot University in Italy is where AI and machine learning and software engineering get a comparable treatment; it is far smaller, with about 1,200 students against roughly 4,500 here, and is also a private institution.
*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”, “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.
**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale:
- known locally
- known locally and internationally
- is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
- is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications
***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
