Research at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences focuses on cross-faculty and multidisciplinary priority areas.
Our research is firmly anchored in professional practice: it always addresses a pressing problem from the field, and is conducted in close collaboration with both professors and professionals. Each faculty has its own Centre for Applied Research. Across AUAS, we focus on five multidisciplinary priority areas: Amsterdam creative industries, urban education, urban management, urban technology and urban vitality. Entrepreneurship is another important research theme at AUAS.
