Join the Energy Challenge Event on 9 June

On 9 June, the TU Delft campus will be all about students and their ideas for the future of the energy transition. This year, almost all students will pay extra attention in their education to the transition to a society where the energy supply is more sustainable. A large number of ideas and prototypes will be on display on 9 June during the Energy Challenge Event, which is part of TU Delft’s anniversary celebrations.   

There is plenty to do for students on the event terrain. Find out what other faculties are doing to speed up the energy transition, participate in challenges, network with alumni, attend lunch lectures, cycle your own smoothie and learn more about what you can do to contribute to this year’s lustrum mission. Bring your friends, fellow students or housemates and enjoy a ‘real’ event on campus again! There is also the opportunity to meet fellow students, teachers and alumni while enjoying a snack and a drink to spar about accelerating the energy transition. 

And more… 

The Energy Club, Greenteams, Energy for Refugees and study associations, among others, will also be showing their solutions for the energy transition. Also, the Dreamteams will also be present with their prototypes. Students from the TU Delft, InHolland and The Hague University of Applied Sciences will be demonstrating their developed ideas together for a problem posed by the municipality of Delft as part of the Energy Challenge and City Deal/WijStad collaboration. 

Join us

Are you also curious about the Energy Challenge event, or do you want to know more about what our TU Delft community is doing to accelerate the energy transition? Come to our Energy Challenge event on the 9th of June at the Bouwcampus terrain and enjoy a real TU Delft festival, where energy transition is central.

Stay up to date via this website, which we will update regularly, or follow @tudelftcampuslife on Instagram. Below are some examples of what will take place on 9 June.

TU Delft wants your feedback! Join the student panel!

Do you have an idea about how students experience studying at TU Delft and what TU students need during and outside their studies? Then we are looking for you!

To find out more about the sentiment among students on various student matters, such as the prospective student, the study climate, welfare and student communication, TU Delft is setting up a special student panel. What are your thoughts on these and other student matters? We would like to know. Your input will be used to better tune activities and communication to your perception and needs and those of your fellow students.

How does it work? In practice:

– The first 250 students who sign up as a panel participant will receive a TU Delft hoody (of course when you actively participate).
– You participate in the panel for 1 academic year
– Filling in the questions will take no more than 5 minutes

Join the challenge on 20-21 May to make all Delft homes gas-free

Scroll down for Dutch

One of the most important issues of our time is the transition from fossil energy to sustainable energy. But how can we encourage residents to make their homes gas-free? The ‘City Deal Knowledge Making’ – a partnership between the Municipality of Delft, The Hague University of Applied Sciences, Inholland University of Applied Sciences and TU Delft – organises a challenge for students to work on this issue.

Register now! Besides the fact that you can win a gift voucher, it will also be an educational weekend where you can gain new knowledge and skills. You will be divided into groups with students from various study programmes from different knowledge institutions to tackle the issue in a multidisciplinary way. Knowledge of and passion for sustainability issues is helpful, but not absolutely necessary.

More information about the challenge and registration can be found on the website.

Doe mee aan de challenge om alle Delftse woningen aardgasvrij te maken.

Een van de belangrijkste vraagstukken van onze tijd is de overgang van fossiele energie naar het spaarzaam omgaan met duurzame energie. De vraag is echter hoe we bewoners kunnen stimuleren om hun eigen woning aardgasvrij te gaan maken. De City Deal Kennis Maken Delft – een samenwerking tussen de gemeente Delft, De Haagse Hogeschool, hogeschool Inholland en de TU Delft – organiseert op 20 en 21 mei een inspirerende challenge voor studenten om samen met de gemeente met dit vraagstuk aan de slag te gaan.

Schrijf je nu in! Naast dat je een cadeaubon van € 100 kan winnen, wordt het ook vooral een leerzaam weekend waarbij je nieuwe kennis en vaardigheden kan op doen en in contact komt met andere vakdisciplines. Je wordt in groepen ingedeeld met studenten van diverse opleidingen van verschillende kennisinstellingen, om het vraagstuk multidisciplinair aan te vliegen. Kennis van en passie voor duurzaamheidsvraagstukken is handig, maar absoluut niet noodzakelijk.

Meer informatie over de challenge en de aanmeldingsprocedure is te vinden op de website.
