Objectives

Tilburg University’s core mission is ‘Understanding Society,’ reflected in the education provided, research undertaken & our aim to contribute to society at local, national & international level. This mission is support by our strategic goals (see: ‘Weaving Minds & Characters’ at https://www.tilburguniversity.edu/magazine/core-values-strategy) & in the Tilburg Education Profile (TEP) (see: https://www.tilburguniversity.edu/about/education/tep), both of which focus on the consolidation & further development of understanding our everchanging society to meet future challenges, including digital transformation, climate change, civic engagement, inclusion & diversity, & the UN’s SDGs. The three pillars of TEP are Knowledge, Skills & Character, which aim to build on the academic & intercultural knowledge, skills & character of our students & staff to develop global citizens. Participation in & successful implementation of this project provided a framework to meet these goals by promoting personal & professional competencies such as intellectual independence, self-reflection, social & scientific responsibility, critical attitude & moral awareness, which also impacts non-mobile students & staff within our university and that of our partners.
