Message from the Executive Board: Aukje Hassoldt leaves as dean of TPM

Professor Aukje Hassoldt will step down as dean of the Faculty of Technology, Policy and Management (TPM) from 1 December 2024. She will become dean at Rotterdam School of Management (RSM) at Erasmus University Rotterdam with effect from that date. 

Aukje Hassoldt took office as dean of TPM on 1 October 2019 and can look back on five fruitful years at the faculty. Tim van der Hagen: “We are immensely grateful to Aukje Hassoldt for the energy and dedication she has brought to TPM and to the organisation as dean. The faculty is in an excellent position and she can hand over TPM with confidence.” 

Aukje Hassoldt is looking forward to the position of dean at the Rotterdam School of Management: “It is with enthusiasm that I will start working at the Rotterdam School of Management on 1 December. I leave behind a wonderful faculty and look back on a great period at TU Delft, during which I was able to work with many fantastic people. RSM is a renowned business school with more than 9,000 students and a strong international position. RSM's slogan appeals to me enormously: Become a force for positive change in the world. I am going into my new position with a great deal of trust and energy.” 

The Executive Board wishes Aukje Hassoldt every success in her new position. Van der Hagen: “As part of the convergence, there are already many cross-links between TU Delft and Erasmus University Rotterdam. This transfer is therefore a positive boost to the bridge between the two organisations. We are currently considering in what way Aukje Hassoldt can continue to be involved with TU Delft as well.”
