I came to KWR because I really wanted to do research. But besides the research, I also still do consulting work for organisations, based on my research. There\u2019s a switch from theory to practice: it\u2019s a nice balance.\u2019<br \/>\n\u2018It also works the other way around. For instance, in one project, which I\u2019m proud of, we established the scientific basis for something that we were already doing in practice. We developed an over-arching method to help cities with their future water management. That\u2019s the kind of success you achieve when you bring together a variety of fields of knowledge.\u2019\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ctcperson\">\n\t\t\t\t                <div class=\"ctcperson_thumb\">\n\t\t\t\t                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kwrwater.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Henk-Jan-van-Alphen-2026-01-29-2-255x255.jpg\" alt=\"Henk-Jan van Alphen MSc\">\n\t\t\t\t                <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                <div class=\"ctcperson_info\">\n\t\t\t\t                   <cite><strong>Henk-Jan van Alphen MSc<\/strong><\/cite><\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>\n682\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To work at KWR means to be part of a top institute where you can develop your scientific knowledge and translate it to applicable, practical solutions.
