Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research
We have developed a strong collaboration with the Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research (NIOZ) on water and climate. Together, we offer a unique interdisciplinary Master’s programme: Marine Sciences. We were also strongly involved in the Netherlands Initiative Changing Oceans expedition that NIOZ organised with NWO.
Naturalis Biodiversity Center
Naturalis Biodiversity Center is the national research institute for biodiversity. UU Geosciences and Naturalis share expert knowledge about climate and biodiversity. We reinforce each other in education, (PhD) research and public engagement.
IHE Delft Institute for Water Education
Operating under the auspices of UNESCO, IHE Delft is the largest international graduate water education facility in the world. We have a strong commonality in the themes we work on, and in our differences we can complement one another. As two education institutes, we can teach the next generation.
Delta Climate Center Vlissingen
The Delta Climate Center in Vlissingen was created by Utrecht University, Wageningen University & Research, HZ/University of Applied Sciences, Scalda, University College Roosevelt and the NIOZ. It conducts research and offers education related to water and energy management and new forms of food production.
Netherlands Easrth System Science Centre
NESSC is a virtual research centre comprising experts from Utrecht University, the NIOZ Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research, Radboud University Nijmegen, VU University Amsterdam and Wageningen University. It brings together scientists with a background in physics, earth sciences, ecology and mathematics to better understand the processes behind climate change and to improve future climate projections and predictions.
'Groeien met Groen Staal' consortium
A circular, CO2-neutral and high-tech steel sector in 2050: that’s the mission of the consortium ‘Groeien met Groen Staal’. Together with other Dutch universities, research institutes and industrial parties, we will develop new technologies for an accelerated transition towards green steel.
