We are very proud that we received the top-programme label for the 7th time. Perfect scores on for example examination, atmosphere, and career preparation show that the Communication Science programme is of high quality, an inspiring place to be and prepares students for a meaningful job.

A Trusted Indicator of Educational Quality

The Keuzegids Universiteiten provides an annual comparison of all bachelor’s programmes at Dutch universities. The rankings are primarily based on data from the National Student Survey (Nationale Studenten Enquête), where students share feedback on aspects such as teaching quality and academic support. This feedback is a critical benchmark and helps universities improve their programmes in collaboration with students and study associations.

Proud of our achievements

The BMS faculty is proud of the achievements of our programmes and remains committed to delivering high-quality, student-centred education. Want to learn more about our bachelor’s programmes? Visit the Universtiy of Twente Education website.
