Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming a disruptive technology with many applications. After a first wave of successful AI-based consumer applications, a second wave of AI-based industrial applications is on the horizon. The creation of these applications encompasses more than just the fields of data science and AI and includes engineering disciplines such as embedded systems, mechatronics, sensors, control theory, physics and more.

Research needs to be carried out in order to understand how to bridge the gap between engineering and AI. Eindhoven Artificial Intelligence Systems Institute (EAISI) and High Tech Systems Center (HTSC) have the pivotal role in connecting people and creating multi-disciplinary AI projects together with the industry.

On 29 October 2019, Eindhoven University of Technology will open its doors to everyone interested in artificial intelligence for high-tech systems. The symposium includes keynotes, masterclassesand presentations from industrial players and TU/e researchers. Furthermore, the exhibition will present many live demonstrations.

The PDEng candidates of the Software Technology program, who successfully complete their concluding project and have fulfilled all requirements for the PDEng degree, receive their diploma as well as the degree during the yearly XPO and Diploma Ceremony.
During the XPO a number of candidates give a short overview of the results of their concluding design and development project. This is followed by the Diploma Ceremony, chaired by the director of the 4TU.Stan Ackermans Institute. The diplomas are handed out by project supervisors on behalf of the Eindhoven University of Technology.

Farewell to Jan Mengelers

President of the Executive Board Jan Mengelers will officially bid farewell to Eindhoven University of Technology on Wednesday 15 May. On the occasion of Mr. Mengelers’ final day in office, the university has put together a special program, which shows what inspired Jan Mengelers as president of TU/e.

The program starts at 2.30 pm in the TU/e Auditorium. From 3 p.m. we will spend around an hour on the program ‘Spring guests’. Using film footage, Jan Mengelers will talk to Isolde Hallensleben about the themes that fascinate him and form a common theme throughout his career. At 5.00 pm the afternoon will be concluded with drinks in the Senaatszaal until 6.30 pm.
