Recognition of excellent teaching
Dutch National Students’ Association ISO organizes the national election every year, showcasing inspiring teachers, a valuable recognition of excellent teaching. Wim van de Donk, Rector Magnificus and President of the Tilburg University Executive Board, attended the election ceremony and expresses his pride: “As a university, we are committed to educational innovation and talent development among our instructors. We are therefore extremely proud that, for the second year in a row, a Tilburg University instructor is a finalist in the national Teacher of the Year election. Anke truly deserves her place in the final with her wonderful contribution as an instructor and as a role model for other instructors.”
New Master’s program of Spiritual Care
In co-creation with her colleagues, Anke Liefbroer has developed a new two-year Master’s program of Spiritual Care (in Dutch). “The courses offered in this Master’s are explicitly connected to recent developments in research and the professional field,” Anke states. “And I am proud to announce that it is now possible to enroll in this new Master’s for the 2024-2025 academic year (the location is Utrecht).”
