  This document discusses (in Dutch) the vision underlying the business
informatics (Informatiekunde) curriculum and research programme at the Nijmegen
Institute for Informatics and Information Science (NIII). The ultimate aim of
this document is to provide a 'repository' with regard to these visions, and a
basis for the specific structure of the program's curriculum and research
plans.
  Since business informatics is a relatively new area for teaching and research
at NIII, the current (2003) version of this document primarily focuses on the
educational perspective. It is to be expected that in the coming years, updates
to this document will also pay more attention to business informatics research.
The fact that this document can be updated annually does not mean, however,
that we expect an annual change of course. The ambition with regard to the
stability of what is described in this document is 5 to 6 years. In the current
version, this applies specifically to the vision of the information science
study program. The research part of this document will have to be fleshed out
even more specifically in the coming years.
