Japie, the study association of chemical engineering and chemistry, is proud to present her very own symposium centered around the theme of âCircularity: The New Shape of Chemistryâ.
The symposium, covering a broad range of topics, will explore the intersection of physics and chemistry in circularity, uncovering cutting-edge innovations and real-world applications driving sustainability. Engage with expert speakers, network with industry leaders, and immerse yourself in dynamic discussions. Don’t miss this invaluable opportunity to explore the forefront of circular innovation, expand your knowledge and connect with like-minded peers. The speaker list presents a near equal split between academia and industry, including Dow, BASF SE, Dr. Katrien Bernaerts (Maastricht University), Chemelot Circular Hub, Dr. SĂŒleyman Er (DIFFER), Shell, Dr. Fabian Eisenreich(TU/e), and Water Energy Solutions.
Students and professionals from a variety of backgrounds alike are encouraged to join us on Tuesday, May 21, 2024, for a day filled with inspiring talks from leading experts and ample networking opportunities.

Dear members,
As one of our important policy points this year, we want to encourage member initiatives, where members, without being in a committee, can come up with a good idea and organize it for everyone! You can just come by the Van der Waals room, send a mail to secretary@vdwaals.nl or fill in this google forms: https://forms.gle/jqjMCX6tVU6BUSdC9 . We want to see all your creative ideas!
Organizing the Study Tour Abroad (BuEx) gives you the opportunity to develop different skills. Whether you want to learn how to keep track of finances or if you want to learn how to contact businesses, the BuEx is the committee to do this! This trip has a good balance of culture, science and free-time to explore the beautiful (still undecided) destination. If you have any questions or if you are interested, you can contact me at l.pennekamp@student.tue.nl.
From 10-14 July, the Quantum Gravity conference will take place in Nijmegen! Here, professors and doctors from all over the world will come together to talk and learn about Quantum Gravity. In this field, people try to describe gravity according to the principles of quantum mechanics with the aim of better understanding situations in which both gravity and quantum effects play a significant role, think black holes and neutron stars.
Two lectures have been specially tailored for students. On Tuesday July 11th, from 12:30 to 13:30 in HG00.304, professors from Japan en Germany will give a lecture for bachelor level students. On Wednesday July 12th, 12:30 to 13:30 in HG00.307, professors from Spain and Canada will give a lecture for master level physics students. You are welcome to attend both talks, regardless of your education level. There will also be ice cream, smoothies and snacks provided!
