Public chooses research for University's 400th anniversary
In 2014 the University of Groningen will be celebrating its 400th anniversary, with the theme For Infinity. This will be linked to a major academic research project, to be chosen by the public: a Gift for Infinity. In September everyone will be able to vote for one of three selected research proposals. These have been compiled using questions submitted within the framework of the ‘400 Days – 400 Questions’ project.
The weekly online video magazine Unifocus highlights topics related to the University of Groningen in the fields of research and society, student life, teaching, policy and internationalization.
