Breda University of Applied Sciences (BUas), formerly NHTV, is a specialist institution in the south of the Netherlands. It teaches more than 7,000 students from some 100 countries on one green, compact campus in Breda, and most of its programmes are taught in English.

BUas is unusual because it focuses on a few fields rather than offering everything: tourism, leisure and events, hotel and facility management, logistics and the built environment, media and creative business, games, and data science and AI. Its games programme, Creative Media and Game Technologies, and its hotel management programme are its best-known courses.
