Erasmus University Rotterdam Code
The university as a whole delivers good quality work that has a practical orientation. Its education, research and consultancy - as well as its policymaking and administration - reflect the down-to-earth approach that is typical of Rotterdam.
Good work requires a workable organisation. Within such an organisation, students and staff make good use of their talents, encouraged to excel as individuals and as members of a team.
A workable organisation demands clarity about the aims of the university, its foremost responsibilities and the core values that guide everyone’s actions. A workable organisation also requires effort and commitment from its students and staff to give expression to these objectives and core values.
This university code reflects the mission, core responsibilities and values of Erasmus University Rotterdam. The code does not define detailed guidelines for conduct. It merely serves as context for calling each other to account for the responsibilities in the daily endeavour of making the EUR a workable organisation. Moreover, this document provides a context and stimulus for a mutual exchange of ideas about what motivates us and binds us together and, irrespective of the positions we hold, to call us to account for our actions.
