This becomes clear from the final enrolment numbers for the 2016-2017 academic year.<\/p>\n<p>The only faculty to record a net reduction in its total number of students was the institute of Health Policy &amp; Management (iBMG), with a decrease of 1.4 percent. In other words, more students graduated (or dropped out) from iBMG than enrolled at the institute this year. Still, iBMG need not worry: the intake of first-year students here is also higher than in 2015.<\/p>\n<p><iframe class=\"localfocusvisual\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"width:100%;height:550px;overflow:hidden\" src=\"https:\/\/localfocus2.appspot.com\/584ad21b3491c\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>One faculty that stands out is the small Erasmus University College, where the student body grew \u2013 as planned, incidentally \u2013 by 51 percent. And despite the turbulence of the past few years, the University\u2019s smallest faculty (Philosophy) is also doing well: welcoming 17.6 percent more students this year. This may be thanks to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/2015\/09\/10\/double-degree-van-faculteit-der-wijsbegeerte-overtreft-verwachtingen\/\">introduction of the Double Degree<\/a>, which allows students to round off their own degree programme and earn a Philosophy bachelor\u2019s at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>With 6,266 students, Rotterdam School of Management remains EUR\u2019s largest faculty \u2013 slightly larger than the runner-up, Erasmus School of Economics (5,960).<\/p>\n\n\t<div data-name=\"acf\/persons\" class=\"mt-6 md:mt-8 lg:mt-10\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2
