ORGANIZATION
The University of Twente is where talent can best realize its
full potential. Students and staff are the key. Together, 3,000
scientists and professionals carry out ground-breaking research,
bring about socially relevant innovation, and provide inspiring
teaching for more than 8,500 students. To us, entrepreneurship
comes as second nature. The campus is home to around 100
businesses, including student-run businesses. The University of
Twente has also generated more than 700 successful spin-off
companies. The university's business park, Kennispark Twente, encourages
and assists entrepreneurs to start new companies. But there's so
much more than that happening on our wonderful, green campus. Our
sports and cultural facilities are unique and we host events such
as the world's largest student think tank, Create
Tomorrow. Another legend of the Twente campus is the
Netherlands' largest student sports event, the Batavieren Race. The
campus is a hive of activity - a truly inspirational place to be!
