KIVI members are cordially invited to the symposium of ConcepT, study association of Civil Engineering at the University of Twente:

Breaking Barriers: Pushing the boundaries by innovative measures

on Thursday 6 February 2020, 08:30 - 17:00.

Short description:

Within our current society, there is a lot of competition. Everyone wants to build something bigger, more beautiful or more expensive than the people around them; boundaries are approached. To realise the 'wants' without causing additional problems, boundaries should not only be approached, but should also be broken to fulfil the wishes of our society. This is a challenge for the Civil Engineers now and in the future.
During the symposium 'Breaking barriers - Pushing boundaries by innovative measures', pushing the boundaries is the central concept. In the current society, problems will become more complex rather than easy and these problems are asking for an innovative and sometimes extreme approach. Which innovative solutions are being applied at the moment within the Civil Engineering sector? Where are the boundaries concerning sustainability, efficient use of space and technology at this moment? But more, where will the boundaries be in the future? In this symposium, multiple challenging projects are asking for innovative or sometimes extreme solutions. Together we will be trying to push the boundaries and possibly even break them.
