There are too few Dutch beta students to make up for the shortage on the Dutch labor and research markets. For this reason the TU/e, too, has started looking abroad for knowledge workers. Especially in India a search is being conducted for scientific talent for a two-year Master course. Dutch companies support attractive labor contracts with industrial grants. The first batch of eight ‘knowledge workers’ were awarded their diplomas last week.
