Last week the TU Delft Sustainability Community hosted a lunch lecture on how sustainable the TU Delft campus is. After all, the university talks the talk, but do they walk the walk? From the data presented by Industrial Ecology student Siebe Trompert it became clear that the TU Delft has a long way to go […]
After the first four months and 16 episodes I think we can safely say that the SG Academy has graduated from its trial period! People get together and talk. They exchange information and opinions on certain subjects. There’s really nothing more fancy to it than that, but it works and it’s fun. For a brief […]
How much time in your academic career have you spent discussing, debating, or explaining your own worldview with other students or staff? Had any fights, or perhaps breakthroughs because of it? To clarify, by worldview I mean your religion if you’re religious; your personal philosophy if you’re an atheist or agnostic; and in general, your […]
The SG Academy is a new initiative by Studium Generale to engage budding engineers in literature, philosophy, critical thinking, and a generally broader look at human culture through all kinds of media. Think of it as a modern book club, where a small group of (aspiring) intellectuals get together to discuss not just books, but […]
Na vele zonnige jaren stond SG weer eens op een natte OWee infomarkt. In de koudste augustus in de laatste eeuw hebben wij ervoor gekozen om maar eens niet de nieuwe studenten naar SG te lokken met gratis speeltjes – zoals een bloempot met SG zonnebloem, of een SG fietslamp – maar met een interactief object […]

Lessen uit “De bonobo en de 10 geboden” Moraliteit zit deels in onze bouwstenen verwerkt, dus laten we ook oog hebben voor onze natuurlijke sociale instincten zoals empathie en samenwerken. Het is altijd interessant om te horen wat mensen van onze activiteiten vinden. Lees via deze link een verslag van Frans de Waal’s lezing op […]
SG werkt nauw samen met duurzaamheid gerelateerde organisaties in Delft, zoals Students4Sustainability, Ecolution, Smart Campus en de Energy Club. Dus waarom niet ook landelijk? Op 11 juni wordt de SustainaBul uitgereikt, een initiatief van Studenten voor Morgen, die de landelijke prestaties op gebied van duurzaamheid ranken in het hoger onderwijs. Een ieder is daarbij welkom, […]
Are you a critical thinker, an intellectual, or do you simply enjoy listening to other people’s opinions? Looking for other people who like to question the way things are, and to really understand this crazy world of ours? Then VOX could be your new home. Every week (well, nearly every week) on Tuesday nights in the Library, […]
Weekly yoga/meditation sessions @EWI, by and for students and staff. Sign up for the mailing list through Studium Generale program manager Klaas Pieter – k.p.vandertempel@tudelft.nl Engineers, like everyone else, are human beings with worries, doubts, and emotions. But there are those on campus who have excellent skills in dealing with these issues, and they are […]
