==History==
Hanze UAS was founded in 1986 as the merger of various local institutes for professional education, the oldest of which is the [[Academie Minerva]], founded in 1798, which was the first multi-sectoral institute for practical higher education in the Netherlands. The mission of the Academy Minerva was “The improvement of Drawing, Construction and Nautical Sciences, together with the aligned Arts and Sciences, within all ranks of society, and in particular to improve the skills of the disadvantaged."<ref name="hanzeuniversity1">{{cite web |url=http://www.hanze.nl/home/International/About+Us/About+Hanze+University+Groningen/History+Hanze+University+Groningen.htm |title=History - Hanze University of Applied Sciences, Groningen |publisher=Hanzehogeschool |access-date=27 January 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130126092759/http://www.hanze.nl/home/International/About+Us/About+Hanze+University+Groningen/History+Hanze+University+Groningen.htm |archive-date=26 January 2013 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Throughout the centuries that followed many more institutions, engaged in a wide range of different fields, were established.

In 1986, Groningen was the first city in the Netherlands where 16 of the 24 vocational schools merged into a larger institute, as recommended in the government paper “Expansion, Division of Tasks, and Concentration in the Higher Educational System”.<ref name="hanzeuniversity1"/> Hence, Hanze became quickly one of the biggest Universities of Applied Sciences in the nation and data suggests it is growing every year.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.hanze.nl/eng/organisation/hanze-uas/annual-reports|title=Annual reports|website=hanze.nl|language=en-GB|access-date=2019-10-19}}</ref> In 1989 the university joined the [[Erasmus Programme]] and in 2014 Hanze became holder of the Erasmus Charter of Higher Education 2014–2020.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.hanze.nl/eng/organisation/international-affairs/hanze-uas-erasmus-programme|title=The Erasmus+ Programme|website=hanze.nl|language=en-GB|access-date=2019-10-23}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://eacea.ec.europa.eu/erasmus-plus/actions/erasmus-charter_en|title=Erasmus Charter for Higher Education 2014-2020|last=Anonymous|date=2015-06-30|website=EACEA - European Commission|language=en|access-date=2019-10-23}}</ref>

The name of Hanze UAS is linked to the [[Hanseatic League]] (Dutch: ''Hanze''). Groningen, the city hosting the majority of the university's facilities, was member of the [[Hanseatic League]] between 1282 and 1669.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.visitgroningen.nl/en/locations/city|title=Groningen city|website=visitgroningen.nl|access-date=27 August 2019}}</ref>
