Hello Εestecers!
Well, in about a month it will be May.. So what else will be better than some sun, some sea, some wine and some... lectures? And where else could you combine all these together than in Greece?
After a long delay and some unbearable anticipation,"@your Service" is finally only a few weeks away from happening! The topic will be on Technolgies at Human's Service and there will be some "lectures" on robotics, telematics, acoustics and more! What we are trying to achieve is to avoid boring, looooooong lectures by a projector and some ugly presentations but to offer as much as possible either the hands-on experience of interacting with research prototypes or the chance to take a close look at technologies that our departement is researching on.
But is this gonnna be an all work and no play workshop? Certainly not! The fun part includes visits to both a technology and a historical museum, a walk on the famous bridge of Rio and, if weather permits it, a stroll through the picturesque town of Naupaktos, city rallies, beach parties, swimming, free wine, souvlaki, parties and more!

So what are you waiting for? There is already little time left so apply as soon as possible!

PS: If everything goes well with our FR, we will be able to raise the number of participants to 20.

Workshop Size Does Matter
In the first workshop to Delft in two years you will get a great chance in
getting to know Delft, Amsterdam and the rest of the Netherlands.The
Lectures and Excursions will be about the importance of size in Electrical
Engineering. We will visit a High Voltage Lab, a Microelectronics Lab and
join a conference on e-paper. Of course you will learn a lot about the
Dutch and especially the Delft traditions.

When            Jun 06, 2010 to Jun 12, 2010
Deadline        May 02, 2010 12:00 AM

The TU Delft is one of the oldest western Universities of Technology. The
presence of students definitely left a mark in the historic city. The
city, where famous painters created their masterpieces,  now has a
nightlife that is entirely dominated by students. In our workshop we will
go into detail about the Delft student life at one hand, and the
importance of size in electrical engineering on the other.

Draft of the program:

The workshop will be in the week of the 5th  till the 10th  of June.
During the week you will feel how it is to be a little bit Dutch, get
firsthand experience in our party scene and learn/see some unique things
that only the Netherlands / Delft has to offer.

   * On Sunday people are expected to arrive by bus, train or any other
means possible at the hosts. Some lucky participants may get the
chance to be picked up by the ETV board limo.
   * On Monday, after the official opening, the participants will have a
chance to get to know our faculty (including the kick-ass research
labs we have).  In the afternoon you will go outside and you will see
the history of Delft. Of course this trip ends in one of Delfts
typical café’s were we will teach you how to go Dutch.
   * On Tuesday morning we will teach you how to become a Delft student.
You will learn how a student gets around and how to tie a tie. In the
afternoon we will get to take part in the E-Paper conference.
   * Wednesday will be all about Amsterdam. We will go there by train,
first have a guided tour and then some free time in the Dutch capital.
   * We cannot  really say much about the program for Thursday. Some
lectures about the importance of size in Medical Engineering are inworkshopeja
the pipeline. We will, of course, do this in cooperation with our
local EMSA partner.
   * Because of the exiting week, on Friday you’ll have a typical Delft
anti-hangover breakfast, on the roof of our library. In order to relax
some more, we will go to the beach of  Scheveningen. On the way there
the tram passes the Peace Palace in The Hague, were the International
Court of Justice is located. To make the week complete, you’ll get a
change to visit Madurodam, a museum were all famous Dutch landmarks
are rebuild in  miniature size so you can’t miss anything.
