Mathematics
During Mathematics MSc programme offered at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam you can learn about both the fundamental aspects of mathematics and its applications.
Bioinformatics and Biocomplexity
The Bioinformatics and Biocomplexity programme at Utrecht University will bring together the intricate worlds of biology, computer and data sciences. Our programme is broad and interdisciplinary and involves the input from many Utrecht faculties and research institutes such as the Faculty of Science, the Hubrecht Institute, University Medical Centre Utrecht.
Philosophy and Science
This Philosophy and Science programme at University of Groningen offers courses in the philosophy and history of science, skills courses to improve your writing, and tutorials in which you work with experts on the philosophy of your discipline.
Physics and Astronomy - Biophysics and Biophotonics
The Physics and Astronomy - Biophysics and Biophotonics programme is a joint degree programme of the University of Amsterdam and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. As a student, you will therefore benefit from the expertise, networks and research projects at both universities. UvA and VU jointly issue a degree certificate to graduates.
Biology
Would you like a tailor-made programme in Biology offered by the University of Groningen? Specialize in mathematical modelling and computational biology to be applied in various biology research domains?
Nanoscience
The Nanoscience programme from University of Groningen works with small groups of students, training them to perform cutting edge research in this highly challenging field.

Econometrics and Mathematical Economics
Learn the latest modelling techniques in economics, econometrics, statistics, and big data methods to solve actual challenges such as: choosing the best economic policy, designing labor markets and capital investments, regulating competition, and recommending strategic behavior for firms and consumers. Tilburg University offers the Econometrics and Mathematical Economics programme.
Applied Mathematics
In this 2 years Applied Mathematics master’s at the University of Twente (UT) you will apply mathematics to challenging issues in the most diverse sectors, from technology to healthcare.
Chemistry - Chemistry and Research Specialisation
The majority of the students from the Chemistry - Chemistry and Research Specialisation from Leiden University continue their career in a PhD position.
Operations Research and Quantitative Logistics
Become an expert in logistics, supply chain management or workforce optimisation. We offer a master degree in Operations Research and Quantitative Logistics at Erasmus University Rotterdam.

Plant Biotechnology
Modern molecular biology has opened up a whole new range of techniques and possibilities to scientists working in the different fields of the classical plant sciences (e.g. plant physiology, plant breeding, plant pathology). The combination of these disciplines forms a challenging domain: Plant Biotechnology at Wageningen University and Research.
Astronomy and Cosmology
In the field of cosmology we look for scientific answers to the most fundamental questions that one can ask: Where do we come from? How did the Universe start? How did it evolve and where does it go? Apply for the Astronomy and Cosmology MSc programme at Leiden University.
Algebra, Geometry and Number Theory
The Algebra, Geometry and Number Theory MSc programme at Leiden University bridges the gap between theory and the world of algorithms and applications. The courses are directly related to our research.
Nanobiology
The Nanobiology at Erasmus University Rotterdam will require true disciplinary integration of physics and biology.
Astronomy and Data Science
The Master of Science in Astronomy and Data Science at Leiden University is a two-year full-time programme that merges advanced studies in Astronomy with Computer Science. This innovative course prepares students to tackle the complexities of modern data-rich astronomical research, equipping them with essential skills for the evolving scientific landscape.

Environmental Biology
On the Master's Environmental Biology programme at Utrecht University you will have the chance to study the functioning of plants, animals and micro-organisms in their environment, and how they react to changes in that environment.
Econometrics and Operations Research - Financial Engineering
The Econometrics and Operations Research - Financial Engineering programme from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam equips you with cutting-edge methods and tools to tackle these challenges head-on.

Adaptive Organisms
Become an expert in the molecular, cellular, and physiological processes behind stress adaptation in plants, animals and microorganisms. This research-oriented specialisation offers hands-on experience with cutting-edge techniques to prepare you for a career at the forefront of science and R&D.

Chemistry of Life
In this specialisation, you will focus on complex molecular systems in a biological context. You will learn how cells work from a chemist’s perspective and become an expert in the chemistry of all biologically relevant molecules.
Physics and Business Studies
At the Physics and Business Studies MSc programme at Leiden University, you combine high quality research in Physics with training in management and entrepreneurship.
