University of Groningen: Independent follow-up investigation into the System Views of Life course

The University of Groningen has decided to undertake an independent follow-up investigation into the System Views of Life course unit at University College Groningen and the role of the lecturer involved, Tjeerd Andringa. An external investigative committee has now been set up, chaired by Prof. Paul van der Heijden. The committee is investigating whether both the teaching of the System Views of Life course unit and Andringa’s other educational and extracurricular activities complied with scientific standards. Until the investigation is complete, neither the University nor the investigative committee will provide any information about the investigation.
