We want to get the best out of science, others and ourselves. Why? Because this is what the world around us desperately needs. Leading research and education make an indispensable contribution to a healthy, free world with equal opportunities for all. This is what unites the more than 22,000 students and 5,000 employees at Radboud University. And this requires even more talent, collaboration and lifelong learning. You have a part to play!
The Nijmegen School of Management (NSM) is an academic centre of research and higher education. There are seven disciplines within NSM: Business Administration, Public Administration, Political Science, Economics and Business Economics, Human Geography, Spatial Planning, and Environmental Governance and Politics.
NSM strives for a multidisciplinary approach. Its educational programme is characterised by small-scale teaching, providing a stimulating learning environment with an emphasis on the development of academic skills. NSM employs 300 FTEs, 75% of whom are academics. NSM currently has approximately 5,000 students.
NSM's research activities fall under the responsibility of the interdisciplinary Institute for Management Research (IMR). Under the motto 'Responsible governance for sustainable societies', IMR focuses on academic research into the development, design and effectiveness of the public and private structures that regulate, govern or manage human interactions. The academic debate is organised in the IMR Academy; the PhD programme is organised in the IMR Doctoral School.
The EGP chair group is a growing, inclusive and collaborative social scientific team of engaged researchers who aim to critically reflect on and contribute to sustainability transformations.
We develop useful insights into the why and how of such processes, which can serve to enable, accelerate, deepen and broaden the transformation towards a global sustainable society. For this purpose, we engage in research, teaching and collaboration with societal partners. We are specialized in agriculture, animal, biodiversity, circular economy, climate change, energy, and freshwater governance. Since the chair group is embedded in the Department of Geography, Planning and Environment, we often approach sustainability issues from a spatial perspective. We focus on transdisciplinary research, incorporate futures studies, and mostly apply qualitative methods and comparative analyses. Theoretically, we mainly use discursive, institutional, and practice-based perspectives.
RCSC represents Radboud University’s network of researchers and teachers working on sustainability issues. It facilitates inter- and transdisciplinary research and encourages the development of a wide range of courses and study programmes relevant for sustainable development, thereby enhancing Radboud’s impact on sustainability transformations.
