Two aspects of Higgs physics at future colliders are discussed. In the first part, the (nearly) model-independent extraction of Higgs boson couplings at the LHC is described. For a Higgs boson mass below 200 GeV, precisions of about 20% can be expected for the couplings to gauge bosons and fermions. In the second part, two methods will be discussed how the heavy SUSY Higgs boson mass scale (M_A) can be measured at a future e⁺e^- linear collider. These methods could extend the reach of the linear collider far beyond the usual kinematical limit of M_A < √s /2.
