TU Delft Excellence Fund
Pushing the boundaries of technology. Educating new generations of socially engaged engineers. That is the mission of TU Delft. This active role is necessary for solving the global challenges of today and tomorrow. TU Delft Excellence Fund supports this mission. The TU Delft Excellence Fund supports TU Delft's excellence strategy based on the three pillars of Research, Education and Valorisation, which together form the TU Delft ecosystem. In this way we work on impact for a better society.
Attract top scientists
The first focus of the Excellence Fund is to attract top international scientists and to help accelerate high potentials. Together they form a driving force in strengthening the TU Delft ecosystem. The TU Delft Excellence Fund focuses on alumni and friends of TU Delft who may consider a donation of €25,000 or more. Donors (Founders) become members of the Delft Leaders Programme. This programme offers events and networking opportunities exclusively for Founders.
Studying at TU Delft has brought us a lot – a university of which we are still very proud. The Excellence Fund is a great way to give something back to TU Delft. The aim of the Fund is clear and ambitious. It nicely brings together the potential of TU Delft and the power of these kinds of private initiatives.
