Social Sciences

I’m Wander Jager, passionate about sailing in our world heritage area “Waddensea”, enthusiastic guitar player and involved in our University College Groningen from the beginning.

What I really like about UCG is being at the forefront of both education and research. My scientific work focusses on computer simulations of social dynamics, such as communities improving their own neighborhood, and the challenges of migration and acculturation. I like to play together with the students with these computer simulations, and in projects we often explore new ideas, e.g. on conflicts between tribes. The best are the deep discussions we have on problems for which no instant solutions are available. When research and education come together in such a personal environment, then I’m happy to be part of such a vibrant academic community.
