The four conditions for growth
Our university is prepared to grow along with the Brainport region, subject to four conditions:
-
Up-front government funding to facilitate growth and to prevent the current workload from increasing further.
-
Growth should not come at the expense of excellence.
-
Growth should be gradual to keep the workload manageable.
-
The region must ensure that the infrastructure and facilities are in order.
