The three universities of applied sciences are: HZ University of Applied Sciences (coastal regions), Van Hall Larenstein University of Applied Sciences (river systems), and Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences (urban water).
River Delta Development: facilitators of change
The master River Delta Development trains students to be facilitators of change for river deltas. Everywhere in the world, urbanisation and climate change are encroaching upon these fertile, ecologically valuable regions. The challenge is to decrease the vulnerability of river deltas while simultaneously increasing the opportunities for healthy economic and ecological development. In the master River Delta Development, these developments are viewed as transitions: progressive, complex changes and adjustments in river delta systems that demand professionals who can intervene effectively. These transitions require innovative, multidisciplinary, and holistic solutions. Versatile delta professionals are required, who not only have knowledge of river delta systems (coasts, seas, and rivers) and the latest developments, but also possess the necessary research and communication skills to make meaningful contributions to these transitions. The central theme of the River Delta Development master programme is: The transition of deltas: from large-scale management to sustainable adaptation.
The Dutch delta as an example
The universities of applied sciences of HZ, Van Hall Larenstein, and Rotterdam have been collaborating at the Centre of Expertise Delta Technology for several years and are combining their complementing expertise in the fields of coastal regions, river systems, and urban water to create the River Delta Development master. This will provide you with insight into how the different component systems operate, how they relate to each other, and how the delta functions as a cohesive system. By focusing (and working, if you choose) on the international context, you will learn how to apply this knowledge in deltas around the world.

Potential job prospects
River Delta Development has been developed in close cooperation with professionals. Governmental institutions, as well as consultancies are clear about their needs: professionals who think and work in constructive, integrated ways, that have the knowledge of transitional processes and are capable of moving people and organizations to make things happen.
The world is in transition (climate, energy, circular economy etc.) and needs people that can facilitate this change. In delta areas, many issues come together and are enhanced by the high population density and vulnerable location. This creates a demand for educated, enthusiastic, passionate young people that will take on a role to develop a resilient, safe and sustainable delta life.
Positions you could think of after you finished the master River Delta Development:
process manager
initiator of new projects
facilitator of civil changes
researcher
administrator
consultant
