What is the Colloquium?
The annual Colloquium is a whole-day event where our PhD students, academic supervisors, industry partners, and stakeholders come together to hear about and discuss the latest findings in research at the interface of energy and the built environment, to share knowledge and network.
The event is fully catered with breakfast, lunch, and refreshments, followed by drinks and canapés in the evening. You are welcome to attend only part of the day, but let us know if that is the case so we can adjust catering numbers.
