Changes

 <p style="text-align: justify;">[[File:UTOverview2.jpg]] </p><p style="text-align: justify;">The University of Twente is a university located in Europe in the city Enschede, of the Netherlands. Founded in 1961 it now holds an approximate of 10.000 students. Originating as a technical university its motto “High Tech, Human Touch” describes how the university connects cutting edge technologies with society. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">Being the only university in the country having a campus, the university is located in Netherland’s hottest start-up region Twente, with approximately 140 new startups in the region every year. With a Science and Business park across the road and lots of I&E resources the University of Twente has a lot to offer to those willing to create a business. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">In the past couple of years the University of Twente already went through some educational changes in favour of innovation and entrepreneurship. Its new Twents Education Model (T.E.M.) revolves around a multidisciplinary, project-based approach. One of the big strengths of the university is its student driven activism, where student driven organisations organise and arrange all sorts of things for their fellow students. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">The University of Twente is part of the University Innovations Fellows program since Fall 2016. It is the first university in the Netherlands and Europe participating.</p>

 <p style="text-align: justify;">The University of <span data-scaytid="1" data-scayt_word="Twente">Twente</span> provides everything a student may desire to pursue innovation and entrepreneurship. Starting with their first step on campus the students come into contact with the vibrant activities off and on campus.</p>

 <p style="text-align: justify;">While it doesn't seem as though it directly impacts you, the extent to which faculty are encouraged to innovate and pursue entrepreneurial pathways really does help determine the extent to which they will encourage students to explore their innovative and entrepreneurial potential. Encouragement at the faculty level is one of the things that differentiates more developed I&E ecosystems. Under the "Encouraging faculty innovation and entrepreneurship" category, please provide a succinct view of whether faculty are supported to be entrepreneurial or commercialize their research.</p>

 <p style="text-align: justify;">Your research about IP policies in "Pursue" in the Landscape Canvas will give you a view into the resources your technology transfer office provides. Include this overview in "Actively supporting the university technology transfer function". If your school doesn't have a technology transfer office, you can skip this section.</p>

 <p style="text-align: justify;">The "Spin Out" section of your Landscape Canvas relates to research centers, industrial parks and industry/mentor networks and will give you a sense of whether the University is "Facilitating University-Industry Collaboration."</p>

 <p style="text-align: justify;">The "Spin Out" section of your Landscape Canvas also reveals the extent to which the University is engaging with regional and local economic development efforts. Many campuses also have an economic development office and staff whose responsibility it is to leverage the University's research and development for positive local economic benefit.</p>
