3 Welcome Welcome to this addendum to the competence-oriented profile description of the Bachelor of Science in the Applied Science domain. The aim of this addendum is to provide you with information on improvements and the most up-to-date details on Version 2.0 of the profile description. These changes have been agreed with the National Professional Field Committee for Applied Science and will be incorporated into the next version of the profile description. The most up-to-date version of the BSc profile description in the domain and this addendum can always be found on the Domein Applied Science website. About the competence-oriented profile description The BSc profile description in the Applied Science domain is a dynamic document providing details of education programmes and occupations in the domain of Applied Science. It contains background information on competences and final qualifications, practical examples of professional fields and jobs as well as specific programme profiles with their bodies of knowledge and skills. You will read about what all this knowledge and all these skills mean in practice in the interviews with young graduates who are now fully engaged in their professional life. We hope that we are painting an informative picture of the present but also, more importantly, of a healthy professional future.

Additions to the original text are shown in bold. Deletions from the original text are shown scored through. 4. Programme profile for Technology for Healthcare Pages The Technology for Healthcare programme has been positioned within another domain since 1 January By agreement with Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences, the programme profile was published until mid-2017 for the benefit of students who had embarked on the Bachelor of Applied Science course. With the publication of this addendum, the programme profile for Technology for Healthcare can be regarded as no longer applicable. 5. References, page 75 For 1.

Appendix VI: Domein Applied Science Page 94: left-hand column, as far as first line of white space For The Applied Science Domain Foundation (DAS, Domein Applied Science) is the national collaboration between higher professional educational institutions that award a Bachelor of Science degree in the applied sciences. As of mid-2016, the Domain consists of fifteen universities of applied sciences offering nine different programmes* attended by over 12,000 students. Twenty-nine research groups in the field of applied research are active within the Domain and two Master programmes are being offered. Read The Applied Science Domain Foundation (DAS, Domein Applied Science) is the national collaboration between higher professional educational institutions that award a Bachelor of Science degree in the applied sciences. As of mid-2017, the Domain consists of fifteen universities of applied sciences offering nine different programmes* attended by over 12,500 students. Thirty-one research groups in the field of applied research are active within the Domain and three Master programmes are being offered. Future changes Changes in the programmes on offer in the Applied Science Domain Stenden University of Applied Sciences and NHL University of Applied Sciences are merging in The first group of students will attend the merged university from September At present, DAS does not anticipate any changes in the provision of programmes and study locations. 6 Bachelor of Science in the Applied Science Domain Ad 2.1, May 2018
