Excellent Evaluation of NOSTER by Independent Assessment Committee

NOSTER has received an excellent evaluation from the committee assessing the research of the Radboud University’s Faculty of Philosophy, Theology and Religious Studies, which hosts NOSTER. The committee comments that “NOSTER has demonstrated resilience in the face of increasing costs and limited financial resources, adapting creatively in order to maintain and strengthen its role as a national platform for PhD education in theology and religious studies.” It concludes “that NOSTER’s strategic vision, commitment to junior researchers, and capacity for innovation position it as a vital and forward-looking hub for doctoral education and community-building in theology and religious studies.” We’re grateful to the committee for their close analysis of NOSTER’s work, their helpful suggestions for further improvement and their appreciation for the role that NOSTER plays within the Dutch context. Both NOSTER’s self-assessment report and the committee’s evaluation report are now available here.
