- 1These figures differ from the total number of academic publications reported in Section 1.3 Key indicators for research. This difference is due to the fact that some publications from the category “other publications” are included in this figure, but not in the figure reported in Section 1.3. Moreover, these figures do not include PhD theses, although they are counted in Section 1.3.
- 2This figure includes affiliated parties, with 56% of the total being academic staff.
- 3All individual Central Register of Higher Education Study Programs (CROHO) numbers are counted (this is thus fewer degree programs than noted on our website).
- 4Some degree programs have both English-taught and Dutch-taught variants. The degree programs with only an English-taught variant in the Central Register of Higher Education Study Programs are counted here.
