Inspiring Dialogues (by alumni for students)
The Alumni Relations Office and Studium Generale are launching a new series called Inspiring Dialogues: interactive interviews with renowned TU Delft alumni that will give you, the students, a chance to meet and talk to inspiring people that will help you skyrocket your career!
For the kick-off on Tuesday 19 February 2019 at Pulse (Square), we have invited Mickey Huibregtsen. He graduated from TU Delft in the nineteen-sixties and went on to make a career as Partner at McKinsey & Company and chairman of the NOC*NSF (the Dutch Olympic Committee and Sports Federation). Mickey Huibregtsen recently bundled his experiences and expertise in the book Management Made Simple. In this first episode of Inspiring Dialogues he will share his vision and ideas with the next generations of leaders…that means you!

TU Delft: an inclusive university
Following the recent Nashville Declaration, a strong social debate has taken place over the past few days, also within our university community.
TU Delft stands for diversity; it is one of our core values. All members of the TU Delft community should treat each other with respect regardless of their culture, religion, ethnicity, socio-economic background, gender and sexual orientation. We have recorded this in our Strategic Framework. We appreciate that everyone has a personal opinion, but the base is respect for each other.
As TU Delft we trust that the members of our community will act according to these principles.
You can read more about our values in TU Delft’s Integrity Statement.
On behalf of the Executive Board,
Tim van der Hagen
