SURF

SURF is a cooperative association of Dutch education and research institutions in which the members join forces. Within SURF, universities, universities of applied sciences, senior secondary vocational education (MBO) institutions, University Medical Centres (UMCs) and research institutes work together to purchase or develop the best possible digital services and to stimulate knowledge sharing through constant innovation. The members own SURF.

Together with the institutions, we ensure that the education and research community has access to the best and latest IT facilities for top research and talent development. And together we make plans and set priorities. Certain themes also require extra attention. Such as public values, open access and working under architecture.
