Double Degree Programme

Study internationally and earn two bachelor's degrees

Earn Your bachelor Double Degree at Fontys University of Applied Sciences

With the Bachelor Double Degree, you combine your English-taught International Business studies at CBS with a semester abroad at the renowned Fontys University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands. This programme, with a focus on Management Consulting, enables you to earn two internationally recognised Bachelor’s degrees within just three years while gaining valuable intercultural experience.

Your studies begin with four semesters of your International Business programme at CBS. In the fifth semester, you continue your studies at Fontys University of Applied Sciences in Eindhoven, deepening your expertise in the International Business Consultancy Programme. In the sixth semester, you will complete a three-month internship at a Dutch company and write your Bachelor's thesis in collaboration with CBS.

Upon successful completion, you will be awarded both a Bachelor of Science in International Business from CBS and a Bachelor of Business Administration from Fontys – an ideal combination for a successful international career.

Your Path to a Bachelor Double Degree

A Bachelor Double Degree offers you international perspectives, intercultural experiences, and outstanding career opportunities. In Eindhoven, you will study in one of Europe’s most innovative cities, benefiting from excellent academic training with a strong practical focus. You will enhance your language and subject-specific skills, build valuable networks, and immerse yourself in an international community. Clear admission requirements, attractive funding opportunities, and personalised guidance will support you along the way.

To participate in the Double Degree Programme, you must be enrolled in the International Business Bachelor’s programme. Applications are submitted in the third semester, and a selection committee evaluates candidates based on academic performance and motivation. Only five places are available per cohort.
The additional costs for the Double Degree programme amount to approximately €2,600 (as of 2025). The top three students will receive an Erasmus+ scholarship, which covers tuition fees at Fontys University and includes a monthly grant to offset part of the additional costs.
