How can our university ensure a maximum impact on society? Who should we collaborate with to achieve this goal? We continuously challenge our students and researchers to look beyond the boundaries of their own disciplines and are looking for new technologies and creative applications.
But what do we need from the government in order to find solutions for ever-growing social challenges?
Join us for a widely talked-about opening of the new academic year on September 5th, starting at 14:15 in the Waaier of the University of Twente.
