Most Similar Schools Locally
- Hogeschool Rotterdam overlaps with this school on logistics, marine science and process control, so the two are easy to compare, and it is larger, enrolling about 39,000 students against roughly 15,000 here, and is public, whereas this school is private.
- The comparison with Technische Universiteit Delft is straightforward on subjects, since both focus on marine science, fluid dynamics and thermodynamics, and it is larger, enrolling about 27,500 students against roughly 15,000 here, and is public, whereas this school is private.
- Technische Universiteit Eindhoven takes a similar route through fluid dynamics, thermodynamics and project management, and it has almost the same size, at about 14,000 students, and is public, whereas this school is private.
- Anyone who wants a second school in the same country with a similar spread of marine science, process control and robotics can consider Hanzehogeschool Groningen, and it does not run the diploma programmes found here and covers bioinformatics and industrial design as well.
- Rijksuniversiteit Groningen follows much the same lines as this institution, with marine science, fluid dynamics and thermodynamics as common ground, and it covers astroscience and bioinformatics as well, and is larger, enrolling about 37,000 students against roughly 15,000 here.
Most Similar Schools Abroad

*: 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 …).
