What is Motiv?
Motiv is a centre for personal development in education and business at the Delft University of Technology and professional schools.
The MoTiv staff is experienced in working with students (Bachelor, Masters and PHD!) and lecturers at TU Delft, In-Holland and Haagse Hogeschool focusing on the practical value of motivation in science and technology.
To answer your demands, we design our training programmes and public meetings very thoroughly in collaboration with members of the target group or the commissioner. Contact us for an interview, a lunch, or to discuss other questions.
We Believe in the power of Community

MoTiv
MoTiv provides spiritual care in higher education.
What we do
Spiritual care belongs to the ordinary care of people, and it helps make studying and working safe, good and meaningful. It means engaging with what people actually go through. We see our work as standing alongside the other forms of support available.
What it is about
Today especially, students and professionals ask themselves what kind of world they live in and what they can, or want, to contribute to it. Our work is about questions of meaning and belief, about exploring what life asks of you, about personal formation and purpose, about moral judgement and about coming to terms with harrowing events such as danger, violence and death.
How we work
We listen, support and accompany. We take a person's surroundings into account and we look for connection. Spiritual wellbeing is never a purely private matter.
Education
We see higher education as decisive in the formation of professionals. Education is where you practise for life. We work on personal wellbeing, professional growth, community building and leadership. We also help institutions shape the way questions of meaning and belief are held within their own walls.
Who we are for
We are here for students, PhD candidates and staff of educational institutions, loyal to those who need us and seek us out. We work in confidence, we are bound by professional secrecy and we are independent.
Where we come from
We are shaped by a range of wisdom and religious traditions, and by the world of technical higher education itself. MoTiv has been active at TU Delft for many years and has built a track record there through close collaboration.
Where we are
We work on location and from our own building in the centre of Delft. MoTiv is part of a worldwide network of chaplains and educators in the field.
Who do we aim to support?
Whoever you are at TU Delft, there is a way in that fits you.
For students
More than just your degree. From a tough first week to your final year, we are here for your wellbeing as much as your studies.
For TU Delft staff
We are not just for students. Staff and academics are welcome too, for personal support and leadership that lasts.
For PhD candidates
The PhD road can be demanding and lonely. We offer space to reflect, talk and grow, alongside peers who understand.
For student boards
Turn your board into a team that works. Practical training to collaborate better, lead well and grow together.
