Constitution Drink 70th Board

On Tuesday, the 29th of September, during the 291th GMM, the 70th Board was hammered in as the Board of 2026-2027. To celebrate, the 70th Board will be having a constitutional drink on Wednesday, the 7th of October! The new Board would like to invite all members to celebrate this, as it will be an exciting night where the power of Thor himself will manifest to commemorate them. Feel free to congratulate the new Board with a gift and your favourite shot (which is Bokma, of course). We hope to see you there!

MIMIR ASML Experience Center Tour 1 (07-10-2026)

👉 Mimir signup page: Link 👈

ASML is the biggest company in the Netherlands and an innovation leader in the semiconductor industry. They provide chipmakers with the hardware, software and services they need to mass produce microchips. They design and manufacture the lithography machines that are an essential part of chip manufacturing.

Mimir has been in contact with Jeroen van de Wijdeven, who finished his MSc and PhD in the control systems technology group of Maarten Steinbuch at the TU/e. For the last 17.5 years he has been working at ASML in different D&E and research projects, focusing mostly on mechatronics related challenges. He has invited us to the ASML experience center, where we will get to experience the world of ASML. We will get to see their technology up close, including real hardware and full-size 3D machine projections. The tour explains how their systems support chip manufacturing and offers an inside look at key technologies. Their aim is to have an informal tour with plenty of opportunity for questions.

Important:
– There is a maximum registration of 20 people per excursion day (Mimir members have priority).
– A passport or ID is required to be allowed into the experience center.

Due to the limited amount of spots per excursion day, we will send you an email to confirm your spot. Since ASML requires the details of the people attending the excursion beforehand, the registration will close at least two weeks before the excursion.

Since the event does not take place on the TU/e campus, you can either join us and travel there with us by bus or find your own mode of transportation. It is STRONGLY advised to NOT come by car since, parking is a challenge even for the employees themselves and might result a 15 minute walk to the reception of building 7. If you decide to join us in traveling to ASML, we will meet at the bus side of the station at 9 AM.

MasterPlus Optics & Photonics Lunch Lecture ODIN

Are you interested in the photonics industry? Then we have something for you!  Photonics uses photons instead of electrons to transfer information. This can be used to create more  energy-efficient, faster, and more accurate microchips. 

During this lunch lecture you will learn more about the possibilities for work and study in the field of photonics. Andrea Fiore will give a short introduction and will talk about the new MasterPlus Optics&Photonics program. Furthermore, former students that work in the field of photonics will give some talks about their experiences. Representatives from the PhotonDelta ecosystem will also give pitches. The PhotonDelta ecosystem consists of more than 60 partners that together form the whole chain from the design to the application of photonic chips. 

Subscribe on the ODIN website and join us on October 6th in Auditorium 12, 12:40-13:20 for this interesting lunch lecture of MasterPlus Optics&Photonics!  You can (un-)subscribe until the 4th of October. If you subscribe, lunch is included!

kandi Drink

As the switch GMM approaches, the kandis are eager to reach the Board table. Oude Bokken, of course, do not like that the kandis want to reach the Board table at least not when unprepared. This is why they will try their absolute best to stop the kandis from reaching the table before they are deemed prepared. The kandis must convince these protectors of the Board table that they are worthy enough to sit at the table. It will be a spectacle! We, the kandis hope that we will be prepared, and we hope that you join us on our journey!

Royal Smit Excursion: The Construction of Power Transformers

Royal Smit manufactures power transformers. These can go up to 765 kV and hundreds of MVA. In addition, they produce reactors and phase-shifting transformers to maintain grid stability. 
They have been doing this in Nijmegen since 1913 and now operate worldwide. 
Do you want to see how these transformers, the size of small buildings, are designed, manufactured and tested? This is your chance!
On the 11th of September, we will visit their Nijmegen site for a factory tour.
As we are limited by personal protection measures (helmets and steel-tipped shoes), we have only 15 places for this trip, so be quick to sign up.
Note that master students will have priority if we have too many sign-ups. (You will be notified on the 7th of September).

This activity is exclusive to Waldur Members. You can register for it here: https://waldur.nl/event/royal-smit/
