On November 29th 2011, the Electrical Engineering study association Thor organized a conference on ‘Entertainment Technology: Improving the quality of life in virtual, augmented and physical reality’. The goal of this conference is to take a look at the progress, in particular the application, of technology originating from the game and film industry, and the influence it’s had on other sectors, ranging from health to art. Throughout the day, invited speakers will present examples of entertainment technology and their vision of the future.
On the 11th of July 2017, 29 students and 2 employees of the department of Electrical Engineering of Eindhoven University of Technology will embark on an intercontinental journey to Russia and South Korea. The purpose of this tour is to acquaint our students with the international approach to (electrical) engineering, the automotive industry and scientific research.
Besides visiting companies and universities, the students will partake in cultural activities and excursions to discover the differences and similarities in cultures. On this journey, we hope to give our students the opportunity to get to know people and companies they would otherwise never meet and hopefully create friendships and connections across the globe.
During the study tour we will maintain a blog about our experiences and impressions on the tour. You can find this blog and more information about the study tour on our website:
