Diagonally across from the city monastery San Damiano, you can see the city monastery Mariënburg of the Sisters of J.M.J. (Jesus, Mary, Joseph) dating back to 1899. The sisters provided the education at the teacher training school (1925) aimed at poor girls. In the former convent, a university program was established in 2016. The 'Jheronimus Academy of Data Science (JADS) is the result of a unique collaboration between the universities of Tilburg and Eindhoven. The sisters are happy that their convent continues to serve an educational purpose. After their lifelong commitment to education, they complete the circle with an investment in an education fund for students studying at the data science academy in the former convent, where prayers have given way to algorithms, and reason and passion can come together.
