Abstract

A university of applied sciences focuses on both application and science. Before becoming a professor at a university of applied sciences, I got in touch with both worlds: the purely scientific one, doing research in the field of algorithm engineering, and the `real' one, working in large software development projects. After making these experiences, I am convinced that the approach of a university of applied sciences is a very good one.
