Since 2001, BUas has offered the Hotel Management programme: the bachelor’s degree in Hotel Management. At Hotel Management Breda, everything revolves around creating a unique guest experience. How do you respond to increasingly discerning customers? How to create meaningful impact for guests? That is what students learn with us.

BUas is committed to forging connections with related fields of study and the international professional field. We collaborate with industry leaders in hospitality on innovation and research (in the field of AI and Sustainability), with an emphasis on jointly discovering new opportunities, solutions and horizons. Students benefit from these strong connections through projects, international placements and practical experience in our own learning company Sibelicious.
