The Belgian National Group of ITA, ABTUS-BVOTS, has the pleasure of inviting you to attend the seminar “Young Engineers@Work” on 27th of March 2024 at the Etex Office, Passport Building, Brussels Airport, Building 1K in Zaventem, Belgium. This seminar is especially meant for young engineers to exchange knowledge. The seminar is open to all professionals interested in underground engineering regardless their age, but apart from the keynote speaker, all presenters are young engineers under 35 years of age. This seminar offers young engineers the opportunity to present their interesting research, innovations, hallenging engineering or construction projects to an audience of fellow colleagues from the sector in underground structures. The seminar is an excellent platform to share experiences among experienced and young engineers.
Currently, we already have 6 interesting papers under review by the jury. We can already say that they are of very high quality and the programme will be well filled.
Besides the young engineers, we will let Hans Plets have the floor during the keynote session. He will try to answer the question "Will E.T. land in Belgium?".
An extremely interesting speaker https://hansplets.eu/ !
Awards – 2 prizes
The best oral and poster presentation will be awarded with € 250,-. The jury consists of representatives from researchers, design offices and contractors. The decision of the jury is based on the paper itself and the presentation (oral presentation of poster presentation).
