For employees and students at the Faculty of Engineering, and for others who find the topic interesting.
Innholdsfortegnelse [-]
The purpose of this webinar series is to stimulate academic and free discussions on important topics in research, innovation and education, and also to provide a team- and culture-building arena at the IV Faculty.
When: Fridays 08.30-09.00 (except holidays, summer vacation, cramped days).
Where: Teams
We encourage all the departments at the faculty to report contributions (topic, speaker and time) through their representative in the IV Research Committee.
The format
- 20 minutes talk, 10 minutes for questions/discussions
- Presentations in English, no recording, no distribution of presentations
- The speaker is introduced by a member of the Scientific Committee.
- The webinars are open to external listeners
The contributions
- Low threshold and the possibility to reuse presentations
- Relevant and interesting research, projects and innovations
- Talks on challenges and future research (e.g. sustainability, digitalization, innovation and interdisciplinarity)
