Aalto University was founded in 2010, uniting three renown specialized universities. Since the beginning it redefined higher education: “Whilst proud of its heritage, Aalto University is not resting on its laurels but sees its tripartite nature as an excellent opportunity to redefine the role and functioning of modern European universities”.
We question, how far have we come? How does the entrepreneurial university look like in 2018? What challenges are ahead in redefining the university in the coming years? How do the SDGs challenge our current practices?
