Collaboration

Develop talent through internships and collaboration.

View opportunities

Companies, students and lecturers work together on regional challenges and carry out practice-based research. Students get the chance to learn in real working environments, and companies get to know the employees of the future. Professionals grow in their field and take part in networks. Building knowledge and experience makes us stronger. Businesses, education and the region grow together.

Strategic partnership and innovation

Whether you're tackling technical talent shortages, driving innovation through research collaboration, or seeking flexible solutions for your organisation, Fontys partners with businesses across sectors. We offer a variety of options: from training programmes and challenge-based projects to access to practice-oriented research and development initiatives. Our network spans Europe through the HEROES Alliance, a transnational alliance of nine practice-oriented universities of applied sciences and universities focused on regional resilience and smart industry transitions.

Access to talent and flexible learning

Every year, hundreds of students complete internships and graduation assignments in partner organisations, bringing fresh perspectives and dedicated effort to real-world challenges. We also support professional development through part-time programmes and micro-credentials designed for working teams. Our approach is simple: students gain practical experience, your organisation gets motivated talent and innovative input, and together we strengthen the region's competitive edge.
