Try display inline-block or float left on the ul's you want side by side. I recommend adding classes to make the styling easier
HTML:
<ul>
<li>Opleiding</li>
<ul class="sitemap">
<li>Visie & Beleid</li>
<li>Opbouw Studieprogramma</li>
<li>Competenties</li>
<li>Diploma</li>
<li>Beroepen</li>
</ul>
<li>Onderwijsprogramma</li>
<ul class="sitemap">
<li>Mededelingen</li>
<li>Uitagenda</li>
<li>Propedeuse</li>
<li>Verdieping 1</li>
<li>Verdieping 2</li>
<li>Afstuderen</li>
</ul>
<li>Organisatie</li>
<ul class="sitemap">
<li>Contact</li>
<li>Blog</li>
<li>Docenten</li>
<li>Onderwijsbureau</li>
<li>Stagebureau</li>
<li>Buitenlandbureau</li>
<li>Examencommissie</li>
<li>Decaan</li>
</ul>
<li>Stages en Projecten</li>
<ul class="sitemap">
<li>Stages</li>
<li>Projecten</li>
</ul>
</ul>
CSS:
footer .sitemap {
display: inline-block;
OR
float: left;
}

Well, for starters your markup is invald. If you want to nest ULs inside of another UL, it needs to be inside of an LI
<ul>
<li>Title
<ul>
<li>Sub-Title</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
From there, you probably just need something like this:
footer > ul > li {
float:left;
width:50%;
}
