Calvin Rans is the best teacher of the Netherlands. And guess what? He is teaching you and your fellow students the best lessons in Aerospace Engineering; just at our own university! The jury was head over heels about his efforts to improve his lectures. TU Delft has more nationally awarded teachers, such as Alexandru Losup, who won the award for best Dutch teacher in 2015.

The unique gift of lecturer Rans

Books? Boring lectures? Nope, professor Rans has the unique talent to make complex ideas and concepts easy to understand. That is why professor Rans was signed up for the competition of best teacher in the Netherlands, just by his own students! His students and professor Rans himself were more than happy that he was voted for best teacher of the Netherlands.

On 17 April Calvin was recognized for his achievement by Rector Magnificus Tim van der Hagen, Vice President Education Rob Mudde and Dean of Aerospace Engineering Henri Werij. His colleagues, members of the student council,  study association VSV and – of course – his own students attended the festive event.

Dr. Calvin Rans, lecturer at the faculty of Aerospace Engineering, has reached the final round in the yearly national ‘Best Lecturer in 2019’ contest. The event will take place on April 13th in the Utrecht Jaarbeurs.

Calvin and the other three finalists will give inspiring mini-lectures on various of their field-related topics. The Minister of Education, Culture and Science, Ingrid van Engelshoven, will be present for the award ceremony.

Let’s hope he impresses the national jury as much as he did the jury in Delft. Giulia Calabretta, TU Delft lecturer at the faculty of Industrial Design was runner up in the national contest of 2018. On 13 April we know whether Calvin has had just as much or perhaps even more success.

During the Education Day last year on November 8, Calvin was already awarded as Best TU Delft Lecturer. The Aerospace Engineering study association (VSV) nominated him for this title. He had to compete to seven nominees who were chosen by their faculty.

If you are interested to study, do research or an internship in the United States coming semester, you are very welcome to attend our special ‘US Student Visa information session’on April 5^th. A representative of the U.S. Consulate General will visit TU Delft to give a presentation with practical information and tips and tricks for submitting a successful visa application.

Don’t miss this opportunity!

Date: Friday April 5th, 2019 from 12.45 until 14.00
