On Thursday, April 24th, 2024, the 3rd 4TU/14UAS Research Day on Digitalization of the Built Environment takes place in Delft and is hosted jointly by InHolland University of Applied Sciences (InHolland), The Hague University of Applied Sciences (THUAS), and Delft University of Technology (TU Delft).
About this event
The 4TU/14UAS knowledge institutes come together and invite you to join their annual event that highlights state-of-the-art research and implementation results related to the broader area of digitalization of the built environment. To all researchers, lecturers, and students (Bachelor, Master and PhD) within the knowledge domains of Built Environment and ICT: Let’s join the discussions on ongoing research activities and set common vision for future innovations!
Programme
The Research Day will start with a plenary session, including a keynote speech and interactive software demonstrations. After the informal lunch, four parallel sessions will take place preceded by the second keynote speech. During the break, you can visit the poster presentations. We will conclude the day with a guided tour in The Green Village at TU Delft Campus, followed by networking drinks and snacks.
