What do a solar camper, an artificial heart, and a firefighting drone have in common? They are created by engineers of the future. These engineers of the future work on urgent societal challenges. Real-world, open-ended challenges from industry, government, and society. The societal challenges are complex and can’t be solved by selecting a clever technological solution from a single field. 

These challenges require creative solutions based on collaboration and communication. So, these engineers of the future need to be able to pitch their ideas, deal with uncertainty, and work in interdisciplinary teams with an entrepreneurial mindset. We enable students to become the engineers of the future, through CBL. Students learn in an interdisciplinary team, and together with partners from the Brainport region, they tackle the challenges that society faces.

We are incredibly proud to be the winners of the 1st Dutch Higher Education Award. It is a huge honor to accept this award for everyone involved in our community, from students to staff and industry partners from the Brainport Eindhoven Innovation ecosystem. 

At TU/e innovation Space we provide a framework for Challenge Based Learning (CBL), where students learn while solving real-world challenges. CBL enables the next generation of responsible and entrepreneurial engineers to develop the skills necessary to thrive in an ever-changing world. Winning the award, gave us recognition for our added value to education and student learning. The prize money (1.5 million) allows us to search for the next step: if you think of the future, what would the university look like? We do this from three different perspectives: student learning, the university as an organization, and the collaboration in the ecosystem.

At TU/e innovation Space, there are about 40 student teams (25 accredited teams and 14 discovery teams) which address challenges in the fields of sustainability, artificial intelligence, health and mobility. They are working on extraordinary projects like a solar-powered family car, a car made of bio composite, a drone assistant, future living, and renewable energy resources. Working in a team offers students the opportunity on putting their knowledge into practice and develop their personal skills while working on an innovative project.
