What Is Tilburg University's Website?
Updated
Tilburg University's website (tilburguniversity.edu) is the official online home of Tilburg University, a Dutch university founded in 1927 and described on the site as "dedicated to society since 1927." It serves prospective students, current students and staff, researchers, alumni, donors, the press, and suppliers — acting as both an introduction to the university and a working portal for its community.
What the site is for
The homepage is organized around a few core purposes:
- Presenting the university's identity and research. Featured items highlight research themes such as sustainability and the energy transition, AI-driven digital threats, and cybercrime, alongside news items and a news overview.
- Guiding study choices. Dedicated sections for Bachelor's programs and Master's programs explain that events run throughout the year to help visitors decide which university and program fit them, with links to an events calendar.
- Orienting international and prospective students. A "Study in Tilburg in the Netherlands" section frames the decision around questions like what you are passionate about and what your career aspirations are, encouraging early investigation of options.
- Serving internal and external audiences. A footer area links to information for students, staff intranet, alumni, donors, press and media, and suppliers.
