TU/e innovation Space

This week, as part of the Eindhoven University of Technology Women and Girls in Science Week, Season 3 of Driven by Challenges profiles four of TU/e’s inspiring women who are tackling some of society’s most difficult challenges. Episode 2 features former TU/e student team member Maartje Verhoek, who credits her experience with team STORM with (battery) powering her journey to COO of Eleo– a former student team spin-off that designs and manufactures battery packs for off-highway electrical vehicles. TU/e innovation Space is so proud to have witnessed Maartje’s journey from dream, to demo, and as she continues to make meaningful impact. We can’t wait to see where this journey goes! Don’t miss all six episodes of Driven by Challenges and discover how TU/e students are engineering the future. https://lnkd.in/eGjVx7bZ #womenandgirlsinscienceweek #studentteams #innovation #fromdreamtodemotoimpact

Really interesting developments in University of Newcastle. Love to follow up and also collaborate for developing entrepreneurial engineers of the future.

What makes Challenge-Based Learning effective and inspiring? In this article (in Dutch) published in Cursor TU Eindhoven, two of our TU/e innovation Space colleagues, Gert Guri and Isabel de Haan, discuss the importance of managing expectations, interdisciplinary teams and creative problem-solving. https://lnkd.in/eXzZpkcz TU/e Academy for Learning and Teaching, EuroTeQ Engineering University

Congratulations 👏 Isabelle and Isolde, we are very proud of you.

TU/e innovation night: Dream Big, Act Together What do an autonomous rover, sustainable rockets, light objects for social impact and a firefighting drone have in common? They are the creations of tomorrow's innovators - engineers of the future, ready to contribute to solving society's greatest challenges. These creations are not the work of a single genius, but collaborative brainpower, addressing real-world problems where a singular solution is insufficient. At TU/e innovation night, bright minds and the spirit of entrepreneurship came together, in the inspirational environment of TU/e innovation Space students, alumni and experts connected to reimagine a possible future.

TU/e Space Industry Student Team reaches for the stars At a university with no dedicated space program, Team VOID—a bold new student initiative at Technische Universiteit Eindhoven (TU/e) — is on the ambitious path to revolutionize the space industry. Last Friday the team revealed its first milestone; a mini rocket prototype called Tapeti, a vital step toward their ultimate goal of building reusable rockets. @IO+, published an interesting story about the team and its plans for the future: https://lnkd.in/ePPcEWsy #spaceindustry, #sustainability, #studentteam, #transformation

Budget cuts in higher education affect not only our universities but also the future of society itself. Funding cuts undermine facilities like the TU/e innovation Space, where the engineers of the future learn and develop skills to become leaders, inventors, and problem solvers. Investing in higher education is investing in the future; education for innovation that solves challenges the world is facing drives economic growth, and improves society now and in decades to come. We are committed to a future built on knowledge, creativity, and resilience. Today, we planned to join the protest in Utrecht to stand against budget cuts in higher education and student penalties. Unfortunately, the protest was cancelled, so taking a picture was all we could do. #doehetniet #stopbezuinigingenophethogeronderwijs
