Student organizations and facilities.

Technical University Eindhoven is a technological university located in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. His motto is Will, excite the molem(The mind sets the question in motion). The university was the second of its kind in the Netherlands, only the Delft University of Technology existed earlier. Until mid-1980 it was known as (abbr.). In 2011 the QS World University Ranking placed Eindhoven at 146th internationally but 61st globally for Engineering & IT. In addition, in the 2011 Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARU) rankings, TU/e ​​was placed in the bucket 52-75 internationally in the Engineering/Technology and Computer Science (ENG) category and in 34th place internationally in Computer Science. In 2003 a European Commission report ranked TU/e ​​in third place among all European research universities (after Cambridge and Oxford and in equal rank with TU Munich), thus making it the highest ranked Technical University in Europe.

Overview

Eindhoven University of Technology was founded as Technische Hogeschool Eindhoven (THE) June 23, 1956 by the Dutch government. The university has been recognized for its research in the Automotive sector. It was the second institution of its kind in the Netherlands, preceded only by the Delft University of Technology. It is located on its own campus in the center of Eindhoven, just north of the central station. It is currently home to about 240 faculty members, 7,200 students, 250 PDEng students, 600 graduate students, 200 postdoctoral students and 3,000 regular staff. It supports approximately 100 student associations and 15 alumni associations. Every year, Eindhoven University of Technology produces almost 3,000 scientific publications, 140 PhD awards and 40 patents.

Eindhoven University of Technology is a major contributor to the apex and M2i technological dpi institutes. One of his former students- Gerard Kleisterli, former CEO of Philips.

The university is in an area where several companies active in technology are doing their research, like Philips, ASML and DAF. The university maintains close contacts with most of these companies.

In 2006 the university celebrated its 50th birthday.

In a 2003 European Commission report, TU/e ​​was ranked 3rd among European research universities (after Cambridge and Oxford, in parity with TU Munich and thus making it the highest ranked Technical University in Europe) based on the impact of its scientific research. In "Times Higher Education Supplement World University Evaluating 2005". it was ranked 74th among world universities and 67th in 2006.

The university manages several international collaborations with other universities around the world; Brain Bridge with Zhejiang University, People's Republic of China is an example of such cooperation. In addition, the university maintains collaborations with several Dutch universities and announced a "preferred collaboration" with Utrecht Universiteit on January 3, 2011.

Strategic Vision 2020

January 3, 2011, ir. Peel Arno presented the University's strategic vision document for the period up to 2020, "Strategic Plan 2020". Despite the economic crisis and budget cuts announced by the Dutch government for the period up to 2014, the university has set itself an ambitious strategic vision for the period up to 2020. This vision includes the creation of the University College to promote both an inclusive and broad interest, a public interest that stimulate education for upcoming engineers; the creation of a joint Graduate School to administer graduate programs; a 50 percent increase in student numbers; A 50 percent increase in the number of annual PhD graduation ceremonies; increase in revaluation of knowledge to the account of the entire campus 4.2; increasing the university's international position to within the top 100 universities; and increasing the university's investment in the city and area of ​​Brainport by converting the campus into a high quality science park with laboratories, housing facilities for 700 students and researchers and maintaining facilities. Especially the vision science park is costly with an expected investment of 700 million euros in the campus needed to implement the plan.

Organization

Eindhoven University of Technology - public university Netherlands. As such its general structure and management are defined Wet op het Hoger Onderwijs en Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek (English language: Law on Higher Education and scientific research ). Meanwhile, the law and the statutes of the university itself, the administration of the university is organized according to the following diagram:

Executive College

The day-to-day running of the university is in the hands of the Executive College (Dutch: Van Bestuur College). The college provides oversight to departments, service organizations, and the Innovation Lab, plus local action. The college consists of three people plus a secretary:

Chairman: The chairman is the chairman of the college and the main face of the university to the outside world. Technically almost anyone can be chairman as long as they have a lot of managerial experience. For the past few years, the post has been occupied by people outside the university, selected from industrial higher levels to strengthen links between the university and industrial partners. The current chairman is ir. Jan Mengelers.

Rector magnificus: Rector magnificus is the one member of the College whose membership is mandated by law. The law allows the university to appoint a rector in any case, but the university statutes dictate that the rector magnificus must be an active faculty member at the university (and must have been that before being appointed rector); in practice the rector is always the former dean of the department. Rector - voice teaching staff in the College and stands guard over the academic interests of the university in the College. The current rector magnificus is Hans van Dijn.

Third member: The third member is an "extra time" member of the College. The mail is open to anyone (but usually not filled out by a member of the teaching staff). The current third member is Jo van Ham.

Secretary: The secretary is not a member of the College, but a university functionary who does secretarial work for the College: he keeps minutes and records, plus takes care of communications between the College and the university (posting announcements and so on). The College secretary is usually the secretary to the entire university. The current secretary is Dr. M.M.N. (Nicole) Hummelan.

Control over the executive college

There are two bodies that provide oversight for the Executive College:

  • The Oversight Committee is an external council of five people appointed by the Minister of Education (one member is appointed in the proposal of the University Council). The council provides external control over the management of the university, including changes to the statutes, budget, and other management decisions.
  • The University Council is a council of 18 members, half of whom are elected from the university staff (academic and otherwise) and half from the student body. The University Council reports on the management of the University College at least twice a year and may advise the College as it sees fit. It guards against discrimination in the university. And the council must agree to changes in the management structure. Municipal membership is open to all students and staff, except those individuals who are on the Supervisory Committee, the Executive College or who are the University Secretary.

Departments and service organizations

Much of the work at the university is done in departments and service organizations.

  • The departments take care of most of the research and education at the university; each is administered by its faculty, headed by a dean. The deans are all members of the executive deliberation meeting, which is a regular meeting of the deans and the rector.
  • Service organizations provide services to campus residents. Examples of these organizations include a housing organization, an ICT organization, and a Communications Expertise Center (which does external communications, including to the press). Each service organization is led by an organizational head.

For both departments and service organizations, employees (and students) are concerned with managing the body. For this reason, both body types have advisory boards that have advisory and joint decision powers.

Holding TU/e ​​B.V.

Over the past two decades, TU/e ​​has increasingly developed commercial interests and off-campus connections. These include commercial agreements and cuts directly between the university and outside companies, but are also of interest to spin-off companies. In order to manage these types of contractual obligations, the university started the TU/e ​​B.V. Holding. in 1997. Holding is a limited liability company dedicated to the commercial exploitation of scientific knowledge.

Education

Departments

Scientific departments (or faculties; Dutch: faculty), the main vehicles for teaching and research at the university. They employ the majority of the teaching staff, are responsible for teaching and sponsor research schools and institutions.

The vast majority of education is undergraduate education provided by departments to students who are adults with no other academic qualifications than a high school diploma. Some education is also provided to members of design graduate programs, but they are employed by the university and are not considered part of the student body.

Undergraduate education was given in four- or five-year programs until 2002, designed along the lines of the German education system; graduates of these programs were provided with a technical name and allowed to prefix their name with the title ir.(abbreviation ingenieur; not to be confused with technical graduates) hogescholen who were engineers, cut meadow.) . Beginning in 2002, following the entry into force of the Bologna Accords, the university switched to a bachelor/owner structure (students graduating in 2002 were given both the old-style technical name and the title of the new owner). The undergraduate programs are now divided into two programs each, a three-year bachelor's program and a two-year core program. These programs are completely independent, in the sense that a bachelor may leave the university with his title and go into work, may enter a master's program at another university, or advance to master's program his department at the university. Of course, bachelors from other universities can also enroll in the new master's programs.

The departments also offer PhD programs (Dutch: protiefase) whereby a qualified master can earn for a Ph.D. unlike in Anglo-Saxon countries, these are not educational programs, however; rather, the person working for the promotion is a research assistant employed by the department, with teaching duties in addition to his research work.

In the extended region, TU/e ​​is part of the base of the Eindhoven-Leuven-Aachen triangle. This economic cooperation agreement between three cities in three countries created one of the most innovative areas in the European Union (measured in monetary terms invested in technology and the knowledge economy); the agreement is based on a joint triangle that connects the three technical universities in those cities.

Eindhoven Energy Institute

Since summer 2010, TU/e ​​has been the host of the Eindhoven Energy Institute (EEI). The EEI is a virtual research institute (meaning it does not have actual offices or facilities) that manages and coordinates a large number of groups and sub-establishes the common field of sustainable and alternative energy technologies.

Scientific Director of the Institute - prof.dr.ir. David Smeulders. He is the indicative head of the research department, which is divided into four key areas: Built environment(energy use and patterns in the building, headed by prof.dr.ir. Jan Hensen from the Department of the Built Environment) future Fuel(headed by Prof. Dr. Philip de Gay of Mechanical Engineering) Energy Transformation(headed by prof.dr.ir. René Janssan from Chemical Engineering) and Alloy and Plasma(headed by Prof. Dr. Nyek Lopes Cardozo from Physics). EEI also includes the Postgraduate School on Sustainable Energy, which TU/e ​​has already established in conjunction with TU Munich and DTU Lyngby. Secretarial services will be provided by the Technology Center for Sustainable Development (TDO), which also already existed at TU/e ​​(since 1994).

Energy research at TU/e ​​is among the best in academic Europe (a February 2010 study by Reed Elsevier places it second only to Imperial College London). This fact, as well as the unique attention to energy in the composite environment attracted attention. EEI is now all co-location of KIC EIT on Sustainable Energy (InnoEnergy).

International cooperation and circulation

TU/e attaches great importance to international contacts and cooperation. The university maintains an active, academic collaboration with sister institutions in several different countries, for example:

  • National University of Singapore, Singapore
  • Zhejiang University, China
  • Shanghai Jiaotong University, China
  • Fudan University, China
  • Northeastern University (China), China
  • , India

  • Manipal Academy of Higher Education, India
  • , american
  • Northwestern University, American
  • Carnegie Mellon University, American
  • RMIT University, Australia
  • Middle East Technical University, Turkey
  • Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium

TU/e also provides education to a growing number foreign students and graduates. According to the 2009 annual report in academic year 2008–2009 there were 490 exchange students, 103 foreign nationals enrolled in the bachelor's program, 430 in the main program, 158 in professional program doctoral degree (79% of the total). In 2009 the university hired 37 foreign teachers(15.9% of the total) and 16 foreign adjunct professors (12.8%). Overall, 29.5% of the university staff was non-Dutch.

In 2011/2012 TU/e ​​has bilateral Erasmus agreements with many universities in 30 countries across Europe in a wide range of subjects for student exchange.

Technological sports

In addition to the "regular" sports practiced among the student body and by the staff, TU/e ​​collaborates with the student body in a number of "tech athletic endeavors". They usually take the form of cross-department projects, which makes them multidisciplinary efforts. Some examples include:

Car racing: The TU/e ​​hosts and sponsors a student racing team, University Racing Eindhoven (URE). This team competes annually in the Formula Student and other races against self-built racers. Starting in 2010 the team switched from a gasoline engine to an electric car; this car came third at Silverstone, second at Hockenheim, and won the Formula Student in its first year. The university also entered the car named Stella to the World Solar Challenge in 2013 by winning the Cruiser class races.

Student organizations and facilities

The university offers many different facilities for its student body and hosts many different student organizations around campus as well.

Student and study associations

There are two main types of student clubs at Dutch universities: student associations (Dutch: studentenvironment) and research associations (Dutch: studioeverening). The first few are like fraternities and sororities in the United States, except they tend to be coed. The second are related to departments and educational programs.

Write a review on the article "Technical University of Eindhoven"

The world seemed beautiful and sunny! As if there was no evil and death anywhere, people did not suffer anywhere, and as if a terrible man named Karaffa did not live on earth ...
I felt like a bird, ready to spread its light wings and ascend high, high into the sky, where no Evil could reach me! ..
But life mercilessly returned to the earth, reminding me of the reason why I came here with a cruel reality. I looked around - right behind me rose a gray stone rock, licked by the winds, sparkling in the sun with fluffy hoarfrost. And on it ... luxurious, large, unprecedented flowers swayed like a white starry scattering! .. Proudly exposing their white, waxy, pointed petals under the sun's rays, they looked like pure, cold stars that had mistakenly fallen from heaven onto this gray , a lonely rock... Unable to tear my eyes away from their cold, marvelous beauty, I sank down on the nearest stone, enthusiastically admiring the bewitching play of chiaroscuro on blinding white, flawless flowers... My soul rested blissfully, eagerly absorbing the wonderful peace of this bright of an enchanting moment... There was a magical, deep and gentle silence all around...
And suddenly I started... I remembered! Footsteps of the Gods!!! That's what these magnificent flowers were called! According to an old, old legend that my beloved grandmother told me a long time ago, the Gods, coming to Earth, lived high in the mountains, far from worldly fuss and human vices. Thinking about the lofty and eternal for hours, they closed themselves off from Man with a veil of "wisdom" and alienation... People did not know how to find them. And only a few were lucky enough to see THEM, but on the other hand, later no one ever saw these “lucky ones” again, and there was no one to ask the way to the proud Gods ... But one day a dying warrior climbed high into the mountains, not wanting to surrender to the enemy alive, who defeated him.
Life left the sad warrior, flowing out with the last drops of cooling blood ... And no one was there to say goodbye, to wash him with tears last way... But now, already escaping, his gaze caught on the marvelous, unprecedented, divine beauty! .. Immaculate, snow-white, most amazing flowers surrounded him ... Their wonderful whiteness washed the soul, returning the departed strength. She called to life... Being unable to move, he listened to their cold light, opening his lonely heart to caress. And right there, before his eyes, his deep wounds closed. Life returned to him, even stronger and more furiously than at birth. Feeling like a hero again, he got up... a tall Elder stood right in front of his eyes...
You brought me back, God? the warrior asked enthusiastically.
- Who are you, human? And why are you calling me Lord? the old man was surprised.
Who else could do something like this? the man whispered. - And you live almost as if in the sky ... So you are God.
– I am not God, I am his descendant... Good is true... Come, if you have come, to our monastery. With a pure heart and a pure thought, you came to sling life ... So they returned you. Rejoice.
- Who brought me back, Starche?
“They, the radiant ones, are the “feet of the Lord,” pointing to the marvelous flowers, the Elder shook his head.
Since then, the legend of the Flowers of the Lord has gone on. They say they always grow near the mansions of God to show the way to those who come...
Thinking, I did not notice that I was looking around ... and literally immediately woke up! .. My amazing miracle flowers grew only around a narrow, dark gap that gaped in the rock, like an almost invisible, "natural" entrance!!! Suddenly aggravated flair, led me exactly there ...
