Design & Engineering Day 2009 - November 5th

On the 5th of November 2009 the Delft University of Technology organized the Delft Design & Engineering Day. Innovations are dependent on engineers who put their fundamental research into smart constructions and designs. The design and engineering disciplines are the vital link between genuine, scientific research and innovation.

The TU Delft wishes to emphasize the importance of design and engineering as a scientific discipline, and declared ‘Design & Engineering’ as this year’s theme, with several initiatives and projects. The Delft Design & Engineering Award, the competition to reward the best design of the TU Delft, is one of them.

• The Delft Design & Engineering Award (DDEA) is a competition between the TU Delft scientists. All designs will be shown during Design & Engineering Day 2009. 
• The Platform Design & Engineering consists of several disciplines to obtain an integrated approach.
• The twenty semi finalists of the DDEA-competion are published.
• Design and engineering make the world a better place - “This competition is meant to wake up scientists. Make visible what you do by moving a step beyond your original publications or patents”, says prof. Adriaan Beukers. He is the enthusiastic initiator of the Delft Design and Engineering Award. “You can always expand your theories and begin to think of a possible product. Just start to realize what the goal of your research is.” Read more.
