University College Twente offers the only Honours Bachelor’s programme in the Netherlands that combines Technology with Liberal education. It takes a unique approach to engineering education aspired to educate a different kind of engineers and global citizens who are capable of addressing global challenges and designing solutions in a wide range of social, cultural and political contexts.

More information about the program can be found here.

Dr. Herek’s short bio is presented below:

Jennifer Herek is Professor of Physics at the University of Twente (the Netherlands) and Dean of the new University College Twente that merges technology and liberal arts & sciences in an effort to create new engineers. This innovative program of “liberal engineering” is based on a project-based and student-led educational concept, where cooperative teaching and learning are central.
