Data from alumni database, accessed 1 April 2023
In 2022, a large number of alumni carried out voluntary tasks for the university – and in some cases, in more ways than one. Examples include acting as a mentor or coach, giving feedback, giving lectures and readings for students, and members of the Alumni Panel helped our research work by answering surveys. Very many alumni also worked for alumni associations or were actively involved in student recruitment.
Tilburg University
Tilburg University seeks to help society advance by deepening our understanding of it. Together with social partners, we carry out high-level interdisciplinary research with a focus on society’s challenges, such as those relating to the sustainability transition, the labor market, health and wellbeing, and broad-based prosperity. Digitization is another important theme that features in each of these challenges. Technology is an essential part of the social context that both produces and uses the applications associated with that technology. We create innovation through research, through learning, and through understanding. Understanding Society. Tilburg University was established in 1927, since when it has contributed towards mono and multidisciplinary teaching and research in life sciences and social sciences. Our students develop the knowledge, skills, and character that are needed for the challenges of the 21st century. We train them to be responsible and enterprising thinkers, prepared for a leading role in the society of the future. We achieve this by providing high-quality academic education on an international and green campus.
