Faculty and research

Nyenrode Business Universiteit is an academic educational institution first and foremost. One of the methods by which we support our education and safeguard the university’s academic status is through scientific research. Faculty members carry out research and publish in academic journals. The peer reviewed articles may, for example, be used as the basis for publications in professional journals, to ensure that we remain connected to business practices.

We aim to achieve a productive mix of researchers and teaching staff with practical experience, to optimize the education we offer and to reflect our status as a business university. In the coming years Nyenrode will enhance research, will remain focused on scientific research, while keeping in mind that Nyenrode’s research should also focus on finding practical solutions for relevant business problems.
