Some things about the Dutch and German education systems The Dutch name Hoger beroepsonderwijs abbrev as HBO though HBO disambiguation links to the misspelled redirect Hoger Beroeps Onderwijs links here but this seems to be in error as they are not the same For example according to this article a vocational university can give away master and sometimes doctorate degrees but a HBO in The Netherlands can do neither of them An example of such an organisation is the Hanzehogeschool Groningen They are not allowed to use the Dutch word for university in their Dutch name but but rather are what we call a Hogeschool and what German call Fachhochschule to confuse the world they often call themselves university of applied sciences in the English language I would propose to link Hoger beroepsonderwijs and HBO to a new article called something like University of Applied sciences in Europe and redirect HBO Hogeschool and Fachhochschule there The contents of this new page can largely be taken from Fachhochschule
