Academic Transfer Soon Online in English Walter van den Elsen, manager of Academic Transfer comments: "About fifteen per cent of the people who visit our site are foreigners looking for jobs in Europe. Until now we have had to disappoint a lot of these people, although in some cases we have been able to refer them. Dutch universities want to reach these potential staff members more efficiently. Recruitment in English is the answer." Impact In the Netherlands, universities employ 50,000 people and research hospitals employ 30,000. Four to five thousand vacancies are posted at Academic Transfer every year. The site has some 80,000 hits per quarter. "We are an important platform for about 81,000 people working in science in the Netherlands who may want to change jobs at some point in their careers. We also list vacancies for support staff, such as computer personnel, secretaries and controllers. On average, we have about 350 jobs posted. This will increase to 500 now research hospitals in Maastricht and Groningen have joined us." European Transfer |
The Circus Renz tent was literally packed to the limit this Sunday afternoon during a special performance on campus. TU/e's staff association had organised this in connection with TU/e's 45th anniversary this year. Tickets were sold for the special price of 2.50. Those lucky enough to get a ringside seat at this internationally renowned circus, saw dreadful crocodiles, snorting horses, roaring tigers and four stomping elephants from close up. During a breathtaking tightrope act, one of artists almost fell to his death. The person involved was so relieved that it didn't seem to be an act. TU/e's student Physics Circus also did two performances. Photo: Bram Saeys. |
TU/e Develops Transport System for the Future Dijkshoorn is to lead eight study groups in a project to find
out if it is possible to develop transport services for the year
2005 on campus. The needs of users will be an important factor
in the development process. 'United Brains', a group consisting
of people from TU/e, Design Academy Eindhoven and Fontys Hogescholen,
will co-ordinate the preliminary inquiries for the project. Dijkshoorn
has been outsourced to this group for two days a week from his
job at TU/e Real Estate. Each of the eight study groups will tackle
a separate subject; members will be drawn from universities, colleges,
government and consultancy companies. Bumpy |
