Эйндховенский технологический университет ( голландский : Technische Universiteit Eindhoven ), сокр. TU/e — государственный технический университет в Нидерландах, расположенный в Эйндховене . В 2020–2021 годах около 14 000 студентов были зачислены на программы бакалавриата и магистратуры и около 1350 студентов были зачислены на программы PhD и EngD . В 2021 году в ТУ/э работало около 3900 человек.
TU/e является голландским членом Альянса университетов EuroTech , партнерства европейских университетов науки и технологий. Другими членами являются Технический университет Дании (DTU), Федеральная политехническая школа Лозанны (EPFL), Политехническая школа (L'X), Технион и Мюнхенский технический университет (TUM).
История
[ редактировать ]Эйндховенский технологический университет был основан как Technische Hogeschool Eindhoven (THE) 23 июня 1956 года правительством Нидерландов. Это был второй институт такого рода в Нидерландах после Делфтского технологического университета .
До 2002 года бакалавриат давался по четырех- или пятилетним программам, построенным по образцу немецкой системы образования; выпускникам этих программ было присвоено инженерное звание и разрешено добавлять к своему имени звание ir. (аббревиатура от ingenieur; не путать с выпускниками технических hogescholen , которые были инженерами, сокращенно ing. ). Начиная с 2002 года, после вступления в силу Болонских соглашений , университет перешел на структуру бакалавра/магистра (студентам, окончившим 2002 год, присваивалось как инженерное звание старого образца, так и новое звание магистра). Программы бакалавриата в настоящее время разделены на две части, трехлетнюю программу бакалавра и двухлетнюю мастер-программу.
Планы на 2011-2020 годы
[ редактировать ]3 января 2011 года были представлены планы университета на период до 2020 года, «Стратегический план 2020». [7] План включал в себя создание Университетского колледжа с актуальностью в инженерном образовании; создание аспирантуры для управления программами аспирантуры; увеличение числа студентов и ежегодных докторских степеней на 50 процентов; повышение «валоризации» знаний (практическое использование) до общекампусного балла 4,2; повышение международной позиции университета до топ-100; и улучшение кампуса, включая строительство дорогостоящего научного парка. [8]
Организация
[ редактировать ]Общая структура и управление TU/e как государственного университета Нидерландов определяются Wet op het Hoger Onderwijs en Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek (Закон о высшем образовании и научных исследованиях). В соответствии с этим законом и уставом самого университета управление университетом организовано в соответствии со следующей схемой: [9]
Исполнительный совет
[ редактировать ]Повседневное управление университетом находится в руках исполнительного совета ( Колледж ван Бестуур ) . Исполнительный совет (EB) контролирует академические отделы и обслуживающие организации, а также местную деятельность Института Стэна Акерманса . Исполнительный комитет состоит из президента, великого ректора и вице-президента, а также секретаря по административным вопросам, который обычно является секретарем всего университета. Великолепный ректор – единственный член Исполкома, членство которого предусмотрено законом. Закон позволяет назначать ректором кого угодно, но на практике университет назначает ректором бывшего декана факультета. Ректор представляет профессорско-преподавательский состав университета и научные интересы университета. Действующий президент — Роберт-Ян Смитс , ректор — Сильвия Ленартс , вице-президент — Николь Уммелен, секретарь — Сюзанна ван Вельден.
Oversight of the executive board
[edit]There are two bodies that supervise the Executive Board:
- The Supervisory Board is an external board of five people appointed by the Minister of Education (one member is appointed, based on a nomination by the University Council). This Board provides external oversight of the running of the university, including changing of the statutes, the budget, and other strategic decisions.
- The University Council is a council of 18 people, half of whom are elected from the university staff (academic and otherwise) and half from the student body. The University Council is informed of the running of the university by the executive board at least twice a year and may advise the EB as it sees fit. It guards against discrimination within the university, and the council must agree to any changes in the management structure. The Council membership is open to all students and personnel, except the University Secretary and anyone in the supervisory board or the executive board.
Departments and service organizations
[edit]Most of the work at the university is done in the departments and service organizations. In both the departments and the service organizations, the staff (and students) are involved with the running of the body. Both the bodies also have advisory councils.
The departments take care of most of the research and education at the university. Each department is run by its professors and 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.
The service organizations are involved in further activities that are part of running the university.
The university has the following service organizations:

In a 2003 European Commission report, TU/e was ranked as third among European research universities (after Cambridge and Oxford, tied with TU Munich and thus tied for the highest ranked Technical University in Europe), based on the impact of its scientific research.[15]In the 2011 ARWU (Academic Ranking of World Universities) rankings,[16] TU/e was placed at the 52-75 bracket internationally in the Engineering/Technology and Computer Science (ENG) category and at 34th place internationally in the Computer Science subject field.
Education
[edit]The scientific departments (or faculties) are the main divisions involved in teaching and research in the university. They employ the majority of the academic staff, are responsible for teaching the students, and sponsor the research schools and institutions.
The departments also offer PhD programs (promotiefase) for qualified masters. Unlike in anglo-saxon countries, the PhD program is not educational, rather, the university employs those aiming for a PhD as researchers.
The TU/e has nine departments:
- Biomedical Engineering
- Built Environment
- Electrical Engineering
- Industrial Design
- Chemical Engineering and Chemistry
- Industrial Engineering & Innovation Sciences (formerly Technology Management)
- Applied Physics
- Mechanical Engineering
- Mathematics and Computer Science
Honors programs
[edit]The university offers honors programs for both bachelor and master students. At the bachelor level it consists of intensive study within eight possible tracks. At the master level it consists of extra leadership and professional development work.[18]
Postgraduate doctorate of engineering (PDEng)
[edit]In 1986, the university, together with two other Dutch technological universities (TU Delft and University of Twente), started various programs for earning a postgraduate doctorate of engineering (PDEng). These programs are managed by the Stan Ackermans Institute on behalf of the 4TU Federation.[19] Nationally, 3,500 students have earned the postgraduate PDEng degree through these programs. There are ten programs at TU/e, each two years long.[20]
- Automotive Systems Design
- Clinical Informatics
- Data Science
- Healthcare Systems Design
- Information and Communication Technology
- Process and Product Design
- Qualified Medical Engineer
- Smart Buildings and Cities
- Software Technology
- User-System Interaction
Other educational programs
[edit]The university hosts a number of other educational programs that are in some way related to the main educational programs. These include the teacher's program and an MBA program.
- Eindhoven School of Education: Teacher's education for masters, to get a higher education teaching certificate. Also involves research into education.
- TIAS School for Business and Society: A shared MBA program with the University of Tilburg, for university graduates.
- HBO minor program: Bachelor programs for students of HBO universities (four-year bachelor programs), to gain access to the master programs.
International connections
[edit]The TU/e has connections with sister institutions in different countries, for example:[21][22]
- National University of Singapore in Singapore
- Zhejiang University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Fudan University, and Northeastern University in China
- Georgia Institute of Technology, Northwestern University, Carnegie Mellon University in the US
- RMIT University in Australia
- Middle East Technical University in Turkey
- Katholieke Universiteit Leuven in Belgium
The TU/e also provides education to foreign students and graduates. According to the 2009 annual report[23] in the academic year 2008–2009 there were 490 exchange students, 103 foreign nationals registered in a bachelor program, 430 in a master program, 158 in a professional doctorate program (79% of the total). In 2009 the university employed 37 foreign professors (15.9% of the total) and 16 foreign associate professors (12.8%). Overall, 29.5% of the university staff was non-Dutch.
As of 2011/2012, the TU/e had Erasmus agreements with universities in 30 countries across Europe in a range of subjects for student exchanges.[24]
Regional effect
[edit]The TU/e plays a role in the academic, economic and social life of Eindhoven and the surrounding region.
The TU/e is important to the economy of the Eindhoven region, as well as the wider areas of BrabantStad and the Samenwerkingsverband Regio Eindhoven. It provides skilled labor for local businesses and partners with technology companies in the area.
Regional history
[edit]The university's role in the economy started with the interaction with the Philips company. The university was founded primarily to address Philips's need for local employees with higher levels of education in electronics, physics, chemistry and later computer science. Later that interest spread to DAF and Royal Dutch Shell. Often, senior personnel from these companies were hired to form the academic staff of the university (an Eindhoven joke was said that the university trains the engineers and Philips trains the professors).
The relationship changed during the 1980s and 1990s as Philips moved away from the region. The university was forced to seek closer ties with the city of Eindhoven, resulting in the Brainport initiative, a move to draw high tech industry to the region. The university started expending more effort in making practical use of its research and providing support for local companies and startups.
Current effect
[edit]The TU/e is host (and in some cases also commissioner) of a number of research schools, including the ESI[25] and the DPI. These research schools are a source of knowledge for tech companies in the area such as ASML, NXP and FEI. As of summer 2010, the TU/e was also host to the Eindhoven Energy Institute (EEI), a co-location of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology's KIC on Sustainable Energy (InnoEnergy).[26] The university also plays a large role in providing knowledge and personnel to other companies in the High Tech Campus Eindhoven and helps support startups through the Eindhoven Twinning Center and The Gate.[27] The valorisation of TU/e has led to various spin-offs, including Lusoco, NC Biomatrix,[28] Taylor,[29] SMART Photonics,[30] EFFECT Photonics[31] and MicroAlign.[32]
In the extended region, the TU/e is a part of the Eindhoven-Leuven-Aachen triangle.[33] The agreement between these three cities from three different countries formed a region that is among the highest in the European Union in terms of investment in technology and knowledge economy. The agreement includes cooperation between the three technical universities in the cities.
Student life
[edit]Community
[edit]The TU/e has over 110 community bodies for its members.[34] They are related to sports, culture, faith, staff, international students and hobbies, as well as university political parties, student teams, and study associations for each faculty.[34]
Technological sports
[edit]In addition to the regular sports played by the students and staff, the university has some "technology sporting efforts". Some examples include:
- Robot football
- In 2010, TechUnited, the university's robot football team, won the European Championship,[35] came second for the third time in a row at the world championship in Singapore and won the world championship in 2012.[36][37] The team is part of the Mid-Size league of RoboCup.
- Auto racing
- The TU/e's race team, University Racing Eindhoven (URE) competes annually in the Formula Student and other races with self-built racers. Starting in 2010 the team switched from a petrol engine to an electric car; this car came third at Silverstone, second at Hockenheim and won the Formula Student in its first year.[38]
- The university also has another race team, Solar Team Eindhoven (STE), that has entered cars named Stella into the biannual World Solar Challenge since 2013, winning the Cruiser class competition both in 2013 and 2015.[39][40]
Another student racing program is the Automotive Technology InMotion team, a collaboration between the TU/e and Fontys University of Applied Sciences. The team has the aim to compete in the 2020 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Student teams
[edit]TU/e has various student teams which work on problems in the fields of sustainability, AI, health and mobility.[41]
