Avans University of Applied Sciences

Avans is a collective. An ecosystem built on the interplay between education, research, the professional field and society. Because that interplay is necessary to really give direction to the future of our society. That’s why we say: Avans the future.

Freely translated: propel the future forward. And that is exactly what we stand for and work towards at Avans. We need to make society more resilient.

As a knowledge institution, we develop new knowledge for education and society. With our research, we aim to have an impact on social issues. Avans has 4 Centres of Expertise and 2 expertise centres and over 30 research professorships.
