Serving and enhancing society to help citizens. That is what drives us. It was the opinion of Tilburg University’s founding father, Martinus Cobbenhagen, that those who want to understand society should be actively and consciously involved in it.
Understanding Society
This philosophy is still at the basis of what our university wants to contribute. Under the motto of ‘Understanding society’, its more than 1,500 employees develop knowledge, transfer it to others, and bring people from various disciplines and organizations together. In this way, we want to contribute to solving complex social issues. Our focus areas are economics, business and entrepreneurship, social and behavioral sciences, law and public administration, the humanities and digital sciences, and theology.
In order to maximise the contribution to society, we have set up an impact program, focusing on the following three themes:
- Empowering a Resilient Society
- Enhancing Health and Wellbeing
- Creating Value from Data
