Student services
THIM‘s central office is also the point of contact for all our students. Since we are a small scale university, we know our students and their needs.
Housing services
There is a shortage of student housing in the Netherlands. That’s why THIM has its own student residences. Depending on availability, we offer students the option to live in one of our student residences.
Library services
THIM mainly specialzes on online literature and resources. We therefore offer our students acces to our digital learning environment and grant access to the renowned PhysioPlus site (by PhysioPedia) and to the online literature of BSL.
ICT services
To be able to work within THIM‘s digital learning environment, you will need to have some kind of digital resources (laptop, notebook, tablet or similar). THIM has a helpdesk which tries to help students with ICT issues.
Campus life
THIM University wants you to feel at home on campus and build a strong relation with fellow students and lecturers. The university is convinced that this increases the enjoyment of the study and therefore the chance of success.
