[EduCativ]

NHTV is a university of applied sciences with about 7,000 students from over 100 countries. It is situated in the south of the Netherlands, in Breda, only 100 km from both Amsterdam and Brussels. Breda is a historic city with 180,000 inhabitants. Appr. Twenty thousand young people are studying in Breda. NHTV was founded in 1966 as an institute offering bachelor's programs in tourism and leisure, and in this field, it is the largest and leading education institution in the world. New (academic) bachelor's and master's programs have been developed since then.

From 1 September 2018, NHTV Breda will continue under the name of Breda University of Applied Sciences. NHTV will not only be given a new name. We have also developed a new logo and corporate identity, consistent with our positioning objectives.

NHTV prepares you for management-level positions in an international setting. For instance, international accreditations from the UN World Tourism Organization and the World leisure Organization underline the quality of education. NHTV works together with many leading educational institutions all over the world. As a result, there are many opportunities for intensive student and lecturer exchanges. Due in part to the joint research programs, student conferences, and summer courses, the programs' international character is strengthened. Furthermore, NHTV encourages work placements abroad or at internationally oriented companies.

NHTV Breda counts four locations in Breda, some 7,700 students from over 60 countries, and offers professional and academic bachelor's and master's programs in the disciplines of:

• Games & Media
• Hotel
• Facility
• Logistics
• Built Environment
• Tourism & Leisure

All study programs cover some focus areas which are unique to NHTV. These focus areas are cross-cultural understanding, social responsibility, engineering, and entrepreneurship. NHTV set up the 'international classroom,' a teaching method in which students from different cultures work together.

The strategic aim for 2017 is to further develop NHTV into an entrepreneurial and business-oriented institution of higher education, which is considered to be an internationally renowned knowledge institution based on the high quality of education and knowledge development.

In the first year of the new strategy period (2018-2021), NHTV Breda will continue from 1 September 2018 under Breda University of Applied Sciences. NHTV will not only be given a new name. We have also developed a new logo and corporate identity, consistent with our positioning objectives. We will officially adopt our new name and new corporate identity as of 1 September 2018.

NHTV much values a good relationship with its alumni. Although you obtained your degree, we would like you to feel that your time at NHTV is not over yet! We would gladly keep in touch with our graduates. On the one hand, we are very much interested in what our graduates are doing these days.

Moreover, we offer you the opportunity to maintain contact with other graduates.

Given the ever-greater diversity of NHTV programs, the alumni part of the website now also features a submenu per program in addition to the main menu. This is where you can find up-to-date information on your program, new graduates and topics of their theses, as well as photos of the degree ceremonies.
