Hi, I am unsure about which degree I would want to study. I wish to work in venture capital, but I do not know if that is surely the path I want to take. I am doubting between BSc Applied Mathematics at Groningen and BSc Econometrics and Economics at Rotterdam.
P.S. I do not speak Dutch

Just in terms of subject matter and putting location aside for now as a start, if you want to be an investor in VC then best may be to study economics/investing/finance. If you want to be an operator in VC then maybe it’s best to study applied math/comp sci as that may be more useful for running the standard VC company which is generally tech/comp sci oriented. Just a thought. Good luck
For VC, I would suggest to study something economics/finance related. If you want to go to a private school you can check out IE Madrid, WHU, HHL, or the London schools. For state-owned universities, I would recommend CBS, Rotterdam and St Gallen.
Erasmus is the way to go. Relatively cheap and has a good level :)
If forgot to mention I had an additional degree programme, Data Science and Artificial Intelligence at Leiden. Is it good or is Erasmus the only way to go?
Erasmus is the best in economics in the NL. Plus, it has one of the best ROI as it a public university :)
