Nyenrode believes in business as a 'force for good', recognizing that the actions of every company impact people, the environment, and society. That's why Nyenrode is committed to conducting research that contributes to the sustainability of business, the advancement of a sustainable economy, and knowledge that equips leaders to steer their organizations towards a sustainable future.

Contribute to PhD-research for a sustainable future

Nyenrode is a private university, that receives no government funding. Contributions from donors, corporations and endowment funds are therefore indispensable to research the complex issues facing corporations at this time.

For our research, we employ young PhD researchers in addition to our own scientists. In the video above, a number of PhD researchers introduce themselves. Through the internal full-time PhD program, promising, early-stage researchers can take their first step in their scientific career

PhD research projects in need of funding:

Below are four wonderful PhD research projects for which we are seeking funding. For each internal full-time PhD study, we need a minimum of €50,000 in external funding. Nyenrode then contributes the remaining amount for the four-year PhD program.
