About
The Hague University of Applied Sciences is developing into a knowledge institute with a recognisable profile. A knowledge institute where research, education and external stakeholders work together to create social impact. Research at The Hague University of Applied Sciences is characterised by a multidisciplinary approach.
With the knowledge agenda, we aim to increase our social impact by doing three things. We strengthen collaboration in the education, research and society triangle. We deepen internal collaboration between faculties, centres of expertise and service departments. And we make The Hague University of Applied Sciences more visible as a knowledge institute.
THUAS is pooling its energies on three themes: 1) just society, 2) the transition to sustainability and 3) the digital future.
