  二、特温特大学的历史

  In 1961, the House of Representatives agreed to the establishment of a third technical university of applied sciences in Enschede. Enschede was selected to be the location over Alkmaar and Deventer. The existence of a strong manufacturing industy (textiles, metal, electrical engineering, chemicals), the necessity for innovation of the textile industry and the firm lobby of that textile industry together with the Eastern government agencies, probably were important factors in making this decision. Just as the fact that the municipality of Enschede made the Drienerlo estate available for the first campus university of the Netherlands, this probably was an important factor in making this decision.

  Construction started in September 1962. The assignment given to the architects, ir. W. van Tijen and ir. S.J. van Embden was as follows: create a great technical university of applied sciences. The severe winter halted construction for a long time.

  The University of Twente, then still called the THT, was officially opened by Her Majesty Queen Juliana on 14 September 1964. The first class consisted of two hundred students, including four girls.

  It wasn't until the summer of 1986 that the THT received her current name: University of Twente This was the result of the changes in the Dutch Academic Education Act in 1984, as a result of which Dutch HBO schools could take the name University of applied sciences. It was decided to change the name in order to prevent confusion.

  In 2011 the University celebrated her 50th Dies Natalis in the company of Queen Beatrix.

  1961年,荷兰众议院同意在 恩斯赫德成立第三所理工大学。 恩斯赫德被选为校址,而没有选择阿尔克马尔和代芬特尔。之所以选择恩斯赫德,很可能要归功于它当时强有力的制造业(涉及纺织品、金属、电机工程和化学制品)、纺织工业的创新需求以及纺织工业游说公司于东部只为政府机构的联络——这些都成为决策参考的重要因素。正如恩斯赫德使得Drienerlo 的地产成为荷兰第一所校园大学所在地一样,这些可能都是决策参考的重要因素。

  工程从1962年开始。当时分配给建筑师ir. W. van Tijen 和 ir. S.J. van Embden 的任务是让他们建造出一所伟大的应用科技大学。不过严寒的冬天让工程中止了很长一段时间。

  特温特大学正式于1964年9月14日由朱莉安娜女王开放的时候,仍然叫屯特高等科技学院。第一届学生有4百人,女生4人。

  直到1986年夏季,特温特大学才获得了它现在的名字。特温特大学之所以能获得它现在的名字,要归功于1984年荷兰学术教育法案。因为该法案同意将荷兰HBO 学校采用应用科技大学的名称。因此为了避免混淆,特温特大学才获得了更名。

  2011年,特温特大学在贝娅特丽克丝女王的见证下庆祝了50周年诞辰。
