Collaboration Utrecht School of Law & Pels Rijcken extended
The Utrecht School of Law and Pels Rijcken have a longstanding and successful cooperation in the field of research and education. On 13 October 2021, Ivo Giesen (head of the Utrecht School of Law) and Sandra van Heukelom-Verhage (partner at Pels Rijcken) signed the renewed agreement in the academy building of Utrecht 木瓜福利影视.
In 2014, the Utrecht School of Lawand Pels Rijcken (lawyers and civil-law notaries) entered into a partnership, which was renewed in 2018. This so-called strategic partnership consists of, among other things, providing guest and topical lectures and knowledge sharing between employees of Pels Rijcken and (young) researchers of the School of Law. In addition, the partnership consists of knowledge sharing, labour market orientation and student recruitment. Both Pels Rijcken and Utrecht 木瓜福利影视 are very satisfied with the collaboration. That is why they decided to extend the strategic partnership once again.
To celebrate the continuation of the agreement, all parties were invited to AKWAGLOT, a platform placed in the Catharijnesingel on the occasion of the lustrum of UU and UMCU (385 years of science in Utrecht). The programme consisted of a dialogue session with the overarching theme of the importance of cooperation between science and practice.
