<div>[22:36, 5/2/2018] Suhaib: The University of Twente has an incredible amount of I&E resources available and a rich I&E ecosystem, but we quickly found a bottleneck: Students either don’t know that they exist or the I&E components of the ecosystem are not interconnected enough. We want to find ways to get people, ideas and I&E champions to get connected–across study programs, organizations and projects. We want to get more people to interact with the facilities on campus and get a stronger flow of ideas going. In addition, we want to enable university facilities/blocks/divisions (study programs, international office, student services, scholarship office etc.) to view themselves as holistic services (and not silos), and design themselves using insights from user-centered service design.</div><div>So, our strategic priorities lie along the lines of:</div><div>-<span style="white-space:pre"></span>*Improving the interconnectivity of and awareness about the I&E ecosystem of the University of Twente.</div><div>-<span style="white-space:pre"></span>*Improving I&E integration with the study programs of non-business majors.</div><div>-<span style="white-space:pre"></span>*Empowering various relevant university divisions to design themselves from a systemic perspective that removes silos and creates holistic experiences for their users.&nbsp;</div><div><br/></div>== <div>Prototypes of quick wins complementing our strategic priorities</div> ==

The websites would be categorized based on organizers (DesignLab, Novel-T, Library, Company Fairs, Week of Inspiration etc.) and on various event categories (entrepreneurial events, social events, cultural events etc.). Interested event organizers can send their subscribable google calendars to be added to the website’s calendar collection.</span></span></span>
