Abstract
While application-oriented higher education has a long history in Europe, the Universities of Applied Sciences (UAS) in the modern sense arose in 1969–1971 (Lepori & Kyvik, 2010). To meet the needs of industrial restructuring, technological progress, and social development after World War II, Germany established the first UAS with an enterprise-led practical teaching model in the cities of Mannheim, Munich, Aachen, and Karlsruhe. Thereafter, Sweden (1977), the Netherlands (1987–1993), Norway (1989), Austria (1994), Switzerland (1994), Belgium (1995), and Finland (1996) also established their first local UAS respectively. Among them, the first UAS in the Netherlands and Belgium were transformed and converted from former secondary specialized institutions.
