The University in Transition

by Henk KummelingManon KluijtmansFrank Miedema

Open Science represents the great cultural change in academia today. Through the practice of Open Science, the university aims to anchor itself more firmly in society by addressing key local, regional, and global challenges in both education and research, ultimately giving back more to society.

From this perspective, the key question of this book is: how will the university in this transition develop its core tasks of education, research, and societal impact? Since a university is defined by its people, it is highly relevant to also consider how the university community and its organisation are developing, and ideally could develop. For us, the integral transition to Open Science is central to this process.

The book was written by the rectorate of Utrecht University - Rector Magnificus, Henk Kummeling (University Professor of Comparative Constitutional Law and Extraordinary Professor at the University of the Western Cape, South Africa), Vice-Rector for Education Manon Kluijtmans (Professor of Education to Link Science and Practice, UMC Utrecht), and Vice-Rector for Research (until 1 September 2023) Frank Miedema (Professor emeritus, was Dean and Vice-Chairman of the board of UMC Utrecht and chaired the Open Science Programme of Utrecht University) - with broad input from the university community.
