Good governance

The University of Twente sides with all other Dutch universities in support of the compliance with the 'Good Management' Code of Conduct, as has been agreed together with the Association of Universities of the Netherlands (UNL). On this page you will find links to all relevant information regarding this. In addition, this page contains information on the other codes of conduct agreed upon with the Association of Universities of the Netherlands (VSNU), for example about using laboratory animals, as well as links to our Administration and Management Regulation, the students' charter and guidelines on scientific integrity. Also you will find an overview of externally funded (endowed) professorships/chairs in line with the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science's call to do so

Ancillary activities

Performing ancillary activities, such as external advising or management work, generally has a positive effect on the connections that a scientist makes with society. This type of activities therefore perfectly fits with the entrepreneurial attitude that the University of Twente wants to encourage amongst her academic staff. In order to make clear agreements about this and guarantee the scientific integrity, the UT follows the sectoral scheme covering ancillary activities that is in keeping with the Dutch code of conduct. Transparency is of paramount importance in this: for that reason this site includes an overview of the UT Professors and their ancillary activities that is as complete and current as possible.
