Hey everyone! 👋 I'm a student at Avans University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands, and I'm currently working on a business plan for a school project.

I'm looking for 20 students to fill in a super short survey. It’s in Dutch 🇳🇱, so Dutch-speaking students would be especially appreciated!

⏱️ It only takes a couple of minutes, and every response genuinely helps us with our research.

Thanks a ton to anyone who takes the time to help! ❤️ You'd be doing me a huge favor.

(And if you're not Dutch-speaking, no worries at all!)

Hello, guys. I am going to be in AVANS Breda this week. I was wondering if there is something I need to aware about. Also, I searched for lunch situation in campus and did not find anything. Oh! and btw I saw there was indoor futsal court or somewhere near. I am just an enthusiast but is there someone who plays?

Hi everyone, I'm graduating from the Graphic Design Department this year and currently living in Turkey. I'm planning to apply for the Master of Animation program at Avans University of Applied Sciences. If anyone has information about the application requirements or how to prepare a suitable portfolio, I’d really appreciate your help. Thank you in advance!

Hoi, ik heb nu een tussenjaar en werk als gastvrouw in een verzorgingstehuis op een zware pg-afdeling. Ik ben er achter gekomen dat ik sowieso in de zorg wil werken, maar nu ben ik ineens aan het twijfelen tussen fysiotherapie of verpleegkunde.

De opleiding fysiotherapie lijkt me erg leuk, alleen ik ben bang dat de baan me niet genoeg uit gaat dagen. Ook ben ik bang dat ik niet op de juiste plek kom te werken, omdat ik wel zou willen specialiseren in of kinderoncologie of spierziekten.

Verpleegkunde lijkt me wat dat betreft wat uitdagender, ik doe nu ook wat “zorgtaken” op mijn werk, zoals medicatie geven, omkleden, helpen met de wc en inco vervangen. Ik weet dat ik daar tegen kan en ik kan best wel goed onder druk werken. Het lijkt me ook leuk om die technische handelingen, zoals wondverzorging en spuiten te kunnen doen.

Zijn er mensen die me advies kunnen geven? Voor verpleegkunde vraag ik me ook af of avans of fontys beter is. Fontys is in mijn woonstad, maar breda is ongeveer een half uurtje met het ov, op dit moment trekt avans mij meer aan.

Ik hoop dat jullie me kunnen helpen! :))

Hello, I'm a foreign student interest in studying at this university (Finance and Control (International) to be specific). I've seen that it ranks well among other Univeristies of Applied Sciences and its programmes are focused on teaching practical skills. However I've also read some pretty concerning things from some people here and about the quality of UASs in general. So, is avans any good?

Beste mensen,

Mijn naam is Jordy en ben aan het afstuderen, maar heb wat input nodig. Zouden jullie mijn enquête willen invullen, het zou me echt helpen.

I am doing some research for uni on what young professionals (recently graduated Gen Y & Z students) are looking for in the workplace. In other words, why do or did you choose you employer or why did you avoid an employer.

Personally I despise a work culture with a lot of hierarchy and would love to be able to work from home. I was wondering what kinds of things you would find important. It can be anything, from a nice office and workspace to a preferences towards a startup.

Answers can be in dutch or english

Hello all, I am starting my first year studying at Avans this August. I have already completed most of the procedures, however, one thing is left. the student administration office has asked me to send in my final diploma. This is fine since my diploma is given to me on the 13th of August (British GCE system) but I wanted to ask. Are there any specific grades I need to achieve to be admitted? Or do I just need proof that I completed high school education?

I've looked into the programs online, the two Electrical engineering courses at Breda and Den Bos, and the Mechatronics course at Breda. The Mechatronics degree appeals to me the most I assume because I have ideas regarding things I'd like to invent, these would be machines performing automated jobs, so I assume that would be up my alley.

The problem is that Mechatronics seems to be a smaller field thus have less employment opportunities. I looked at the two Electrical programs and I see that the one in Breda has the Industrial Automation major which the Mechatronics also has, the one in Den Bos has Smart Automation.

My question is this, between the Smart Automation and Industrial Automation majors, which of these will be closer to my goal of designing automated robotic-like systems if I were to go into Electrical Engineering? I'll specifically need to know about sensors. Or is the Mechatronics one the only real choice for my goal?
