In 2019, the university launched a support programme to help female assistant and associate professors take the next step towards a professorship. The target was to have at least 25 per cent female professors by 2025.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe programme was specifically focused on gender diversity because the number of female professors was very low\u201d, says Rector Annelien Bredenoord. Now that the target of 25 per cent female professors has been achieved, the university is opening the programme up to people with a migration background too.<\/p>\n\n\t
