University of Twente

The Ultimate People-First University of Technology: Empowering society through sustainable solutions

Technological innovations are rapidly changing society. The University of Twente stands out among universities of technology by placing people at the heart of its organization as stated in the UT’s ‘High Tech, Human Touch’ motto. This allows the university to contribute to a society where human aspects are the key focus. The University of Twente can also be proud of its unique profile: it is the first and most entrepreneurial university in the Netherlands and is the only genuine campus university in the country.

The Twente University Fund helps the UT and its academic community of students, alumni and employees flourish and thrive thanks to contributions from donors. This involves catalyzing new developments as well as funding facilities and resources not provided by the government or the business community. The fund closely coordinates and collaborates with the University of Twente’s Executive Board. The fund was established in 1948 and played a crucial role in the founding and development of the university.

Team up for Talent & Impact: How you can help

The government funds an important part of science education and research but not all of it! Alternative revenue is very important in preserving both the University of Twente’s unique character as well as supporting its ambitions relating to education, research, and innovation. Contributions are vital to achieving this and support from our alumni donors makes a huge difference.

Kipaji Scholarship Fund - turning dreams into a reality

Do you want to support international talent and contribute to sustainable development? For many exceptionally talented students from low income-countries studying at a world-class university like the University of Twente is unimaginable. The alumni-founded Kipaji Scholarship Fund supports future engineers and enables these students to fulfill their dreams and ambitions by following a 2-year technical Master of Science program at UT. With the help of our US-based alumni and friends, an additional scholarship can be offered. ('Kipaji' means gift and talent in Swahili)

The University of Twente Friends Fund established under the Netherlands-America Foundation enables us to connect with our American (alumni) network while also offering you the US income tax deduction available to charitable donors in the USA. See below for more information.
