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!

The second Inspiring Dialogues session will take place on Tuesday 7 May. For this episode we will welcome Alumnus of the Year 2018 Ionica Smeets. Registration will open later but please save the date.

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

Victor Brouwers participated in the Netherlands Asia Honours Summer School (NAHSS) and tells us about his experiences:

“As if you are smothered in a sandstorm made of humid air; that was my first impression of Chengdu after leaving the plane. After having lived towards this moment for months, it was finally there. Together with my highly varied group of students I stepped into an adventure like never before. I would complete a consulting project for PricewaterhouseCoopers and study in China for about 5 weeks.

We were at the beginning of our five weeks in Chengdu, where we would grow closer with the other project groups, follow ‘Chinese Language’ and ‘Modern Society and Politics’ at Sichuan University, get overwhelmed by the spicy local food and bring our project to a successful end, only to then go to Shanghai for the closing week with NAHSS’ers from the other cities”.
