Nijs wants route to federation in writing
By 2010, the three Tus (Delft, Eindhoven and Twente) want to have formed a federation, to realize significantly higher performances of Bachelor's and Master's programs and to increase the number of PhD graduates by twenty percent. Three joint institutes will be formed for Master's education, research and knowledge marketing. Assistant Secretary of Education Nijs is enthusiastic about the plans, but wants to develop a formal agreement before funding is allocated.
