With a staff of more than 8,000, the university provides jobs to about 10 percent of the local workforce. But the institution's influence goes far beyond the jobs it creates directly. It is also responsible for sparking the area's booming high-tech sector, fuelling the tourism industry, and attracting a high percentage of skilled technical workers and intellectuals.
