Partnerships and quality assurance

Would you like to contribute to research of direct value to practice and society? Our professorship carries out practice-oriented research in close cooperation with industry, civil society organisations and universities.

Together, we develop innovative solutions to current issues, with our results not only strengthening professional practice but also enriching education and science. We cordially invite you to cooperate with us. Your knowledge and expertise can play an important role in achieving sustainable change and promoting innovation. Together, let's create impact that matters.

Collaborate with us

If you have a practical question, which we can help with our expertise, please get in touch. Together, we can explore funding opportunities, ultimately arriving at a project proposal.

Our research group has an extensive, state-of-the-art laboratory in Enschede and Deventer (approx. 700 m2). The laboratories include a cell culture lab, optics, microscopy (optical, SEM), nanoscale characterisation (AFM), small cleanroom lab (on the University of Twente campus) a fabrication/prototype lab, sensor lab, nanoforensics lab (in Deventer) and Quantum lab. If you would like to use facilities in any of these labs, please feel free to contact us.

Quality assurance

Quality of research is very important at Saxion. Together we work on a strong quality culture, using widely supported and workable instruments and facilitated by quality assurance employees specifically for research. We look at what is going well and how we can further utilise that. In this way, quality assurance supports the design and implementation of practice-oriented research with impact. We use the national standards that apply to conducting practice-oriented research, the Brancheprotocol Kwaliteitszorg Onderzoek. By organising quality assurance smartly, we are continuously inspectable. We endorse the Nederlandse Gedragscode Wetenschappelijke Integriteit.
