Adventure with a great risk of damage

You just go ahead and try it. Reform the whole Bachelor education at TU/e within one year, so as to attract more students as of 2012, who, if possible, will also score better. Lex Lemmens did have some misgivings when asked to lead this revolution. “It is an adventure with a great risk of damage.” Yet his motives prove to be stronger. “The challenge is together with the Departments to come up with something new. The question being, of course: am I going to pull it off?”

The biggest educational reform in the history of TU/e is in full swing behind closed doors. Within a year the Bachelor programs must be reshaped entirely. Postponement is not an option, was prof.dr.ir. Hans van Duijn’s warning  at the kickoff on Thursday June 9.  “A revolution in the educational field which is crucial to the future of TU/e”, according to the Rector. It would take  less to give anyone sleepless nights.  Not so dr.ir. Lex Lemmens. He is to  head the revolution and does not  seem to be weighed down by it at all.  He even had time for a summer holiday.
