Introduction
Discover our Master
Become a driving force behind the transformation towards a sustainable world.
As humans, we are still heavily dependent on natural resources for our activities, work and survival. However, their massive use leads to exhaustion and has irreversible negative consequences for our climate and the well-being of our planet. To avoid disastrous consequences for our society, we must focus on a more sustainable future by drastically reducing our need for natural resources and moving towards a circular economy.
This master’s program is designed to let you become a driving force in the transformation towards a sustainable world and will equip you with the knowledge and competencies needed to foster sustainable innovation.
Experience meets Entrepreneurship
The SRH Group, a leading a network of independent private universities in Germany and the Global School for Entrepreneurship, a University of Applied Sciences aiming to develop tomorrows entrepreneurs, created Haarlem Campus to bring innovation and entrepreneurship to local and international students in Haarlem. The two university operators cooperating for a particular purpose – THEY WANT TO GO FAR. And going far means leading YOU closer to YOUR dreams and professional goals.
Both, Germany as well as the Netherlands, are home to the most reputed education systems worldwide which is one of the reasons why we believe that this cooperation fulfills all the preconditions for an unconventional and successful educational journey.
