Agenda

On Wednesday 30 October 2024 the 4TU.Built Environment Meet-up will be held! 

With multiple sustainability crises unfolding, from climate change to biodiversity loss, from increasing levels of pollution and threats to global public health to increased socio-environmental and intergenerational inequality, poverty and intersectional discrimination, from the digital divide, food and energy insecurity to forced migration and disruptive use of emerging technologies, there is a need for transforming society as well as the way in which sustainability is governed. Therefore, transformation of society and sustainability governance requires significant reordering: one that changes existing drivers and structures to drive change towards fundamentally novel systems.  

Location: Social Impact Factory Vredenburg Utrecht

During the Weekend of Science (Weekend van de Wetenschap)  5 and 6 October 2024, venues across the Netherlands are opening their doors. The 4TU is participating for the first time this year. Our student teams from the four TUs will show what innovations they are working on in the fields of hydrogen, solar energy, robotics and biotechnology.

The joint ESDiT / 4TU.Ethics international conference on “Rethinking Ethics – Reimagining Technology” will take place from October 2nd to October 4th at the University of Twente in the Netherlands. 

The goal of this kick-off meeting is to facilitate learning across different fields of expertise, identify common research interests, brainstorm potential collaborations, and form collaborative teams.

4TU.ResearchData is very excited about the NEXUM project holding its exhibition this spring, from 30 May to 2 June 2024 in Rotterdam at the V2Lab. Nexum is a collaborative initiative between artists and researchers aimed at bridging the gap between art and data representation. The four days of the exhibition will showcase the work of four selected artists working with researchers from 4TU.ResearchData partner universities – Wageningen University Research, University of Twente, TU Delft and Eindhoven University of Technology.  

In this webinar, we will give three short presentations to start discussions on how engineering education can respond to the integration of interdisciplinary project learning and leadership?
