VU University Amsterdam (VU) and the University of Amsterdam (UvA) have joined their forces in the educational programmes of most Master's tracks in Physics. Thanks to this cooperation, students can enjoy the expertise of two universities, as well as benefit from the existing networks and collaborative projects at both universities. For example, the Accelerators Department at CERN in Geneva, the Dutch national institute for subatomic physics Nikhef and the FOM Institutes for Plasma Physics (Rijnhuizen) and for Atomic and Molecular Physics (AMOLF).
Both universities have an excellent international reputation, with research groups that play leading roles in various fields of science.
