Theme-based collaboration
Our academics from various disciplines and faculties are formulating unexpected research questions on socially relevant themes and incorporating these in teaching.
University of Amsterdam Strategy
The University of Amsterdam brings curious people together: people who ask questions, probe further and work together on the complex issues of our time. In our Strategy 2027-2032 we set out the course we are taking together. Guided by three core values – engaged, curious and independent-minded – and four ambitions, we give direction to our education, research, societal impact and the way we work and study. Our Strategy 2027-2032 is the successor to the 2021-2026 Strategic Plan.
