The Royal Netherlands Society of Engineers (KIVI) is a Dutch association of 14.000 engineers and engineering students. The Defence and Security Division (KIVI-DV) provides a platform in order to meet, learn and exchange information. Therefore we organize events such as lectures, symposia and company visits.

This will obviously be clear for existing KIVI-members, but the main focus four our event on the 27th of March 2025 are you, the engineering students of the University of Twente!
So let’s meet and greet each other on the 27th of March. In collaboration with KIVI Students Twente we have arranged a program for you that starts at 16.00 until approximately 20.00.

The topic of the afternoon and evening will be Nuclear Power. The program is still under construction, but it will cover generation IV reactors, lessons learned from the past, fast (re)acting reactors (the coupling between reactor, steamturbines and the HV-generator), as well as Allseas and their plans within Nuclear Drive.

For existing KIVI-members, we’ll demand 15 euro for the catering (luxurious sandwiches and beverage (non-alcholic)). In case of special dietary requirements you can notify us.

 

FOR STUDENTS:  this symposium, food and beverages are FREE!
