40 years of strategic partnership between the Universities of Münster and Twente. For more than 40 years, the University of Münster has been continuously expanding its strategic partnership with the University of Twente. WWU - Jan Lehmann / UT - Eric Brinkhorst Academic and scientific exchanges across borders: the Universities of Münster and Twente have been collaborating for 40 years now. This strategic partnership with the Netherlands covers research collaborations, support for junior researchers and joint courses of study. "Münster is a university with 15 faculties offering the full range of subjects, and Twente has five faculties - and we complement each other very well," says Dr. Mareike Blömker, the coordinator for the strategic partnership with Twente. And, as Prof. Johannes Wessels, Rector of the University of Münster, adds, "The broad-based basic research carried out in Münster joins up with technical applications research in Twente." With the aim of continuously expanding the partnership, the managements of the two universities recently initiated a further funding line in the so-called Collaboration Grants. So far, start-up funding is available for research projects.
