Educational vision
During your studies at Breda University of Applied Sciences (BUas) you will develop specialist knowledge, problem-solving skills and a professional attitude.
After your graduation in Breda, you are competent and qualified for entry-level positions, self-managing and self-responsible, creative and innovative, and you have an international view of the world and your profession. In order to achieve this, entrepreneurship, creativity, personal and professional responsibility, and internationalisation are key focus areas in our study programmes.
Learning community
Effective learning is not something that you do alone. After all, it is precisely through cooperation and debate with other students and lecturers that you learn to develop knowledge actively. That is why we have adopted the teaching model of the learning community. Students and lecturers from different backgrounds, cultures and areas of expertise work together on real-life problems taken from the international professional field.
Work placements abroad
We consider international experience of great importance. That is why we encourage you to go abroad during your studies for a work placement or exchange programme. We also encourage you to choose your own path within the study programme. We have student counsellors who can help you make your choices.
Time for interaction
In lectures and project groups there is time for exploring the subject matter in more detail, but also for interaction, guidance and feedback. Lecturers often have an international background. We think it is important that they participate in international networks. In many cases, lecturers are also active in the professional field in addition to teaching. As a result, you as a student are well aware of what is happening in professional practice.
Start your own business
The core of the learning environment is formed by real-life cases and assignments from professional practice aimed at inspiring students towards active and collaborative learning. In our professional bachelor’s programmes, entrepreneurship is promoted by offering possibilities for developing specific entrepreneurial skills and you can even do a graduation project within your own business. All in all, you are truly encouraged to get the best out of yourself.
Executive education
Learning does not stop with a degree or diploma. In order to be able to keep pace with developments in society, lifelong learning is required. That is why we also offer executive master's programmes and tailor-made training programmes.
