The ‘TU-lustrum commission’ has added a big act to the TU Pop Festival that will take place on May 24th on the sports fields next to Architecture. The Dutch band, Kane, the pride of The Hague who won three TMF Awards last week, will be the festival’s act.
This booking is indeed impressive, as even the big KoninginneNacht celebration in the Hague wasn’t able to book the band. The fact that lead singer Dinand Woesthoff studied at the TU Delft may, of course, have helped a little.
Extra money for techno-starters
The Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs will give 45 million euro to starting university-related technical businesses and enterprises. These so called ‘techno-starters’ must use the money to eliminate their backlog. Currently, Holland scores below average in the financing of techno-starters. In 2003, the Ministry wants to see 550 more starting businesses than in 1999, when there were 1,100 techno-starters. Institutes for research have three months to apply to the Ministry. The chosen projects will have their housing and equipment cost subsidised for a maximum of two years.
Research in ethics and engineering
Teaching engineering ethics has received substantial attention, but the ethics of research has not. From April 25-27, a three-day conference held at the Dish Hotel Delft Conference Center will aim to rectifying this situation, bringing together leaders in the field of ethics and engineering to exchange ideas on what issues should be on top of the research agenda and to determine how they should be approached. Guest speakers will be Sven Ove Hansson (Sweden), Günter Ropohl (Germany), and Caroline Whitbeck (USA). For more information: www.ethiek.tudelft.nl
