Home of the originals

Originals have confidence in themselves. They reflect rather than copy. Ask discerning questions rather than follow blindly. Write their own stories rather than learn and live by the book. And they go their own way. Challenging conventions, systems and labels, they come up with novel ideas and make surprising discoveries.   

At NHL Stenden, originals meet each other. Sharing their unique perspectives, knowledge and talents. And right where very different worlds come together, the best ideas grow. 

Be bold 

You don't have to be different to who you are. We simply encourage you to think and act from different perspectives – even if it means going against the grain. If you fall, brush yourself off and stand up again. Time and again. It's what leads to innovative solutions and groundbreaking ideas – and helps the world forward.  

Join our community  

NHL Stenden is a community of originals, people who break down the status quo, make unobvious choices, and do things a little differently. It’s an international community where you share and develop your individual views and talents to connect and explore above and beyond. A community where you are known by your name - and call your lecturers by their name. Where you learn to think and act from different perspectives and pool your knowledge with others as you work together to explore different ideas. A place where you can be you, where you feel safe to fall, brush yourself off and stand up again. A community where very different worlds come together.
