Energy in motion - a lot more than just goods and people in transportation. People are also moved by discussions on electricity costs, energy and environmental policies as well as security of supply. Many actors and factors in the energy field influence an increasingly complex network of political frameworks, energy production, subsidization, and public participation. Technology manufacturers provide consumers with completely new possibilities to monitor their own energy consumption and supply themselves and others with home-generated energy. However, providing technical solutions to pressing needs with respect to environmental impact, costs or reliability of supply only resolves a fraction of the current challenges our energy systems are facing. A political consensus on the future design and organization of these systems must also be found in a wide and open decision making process. Within the framework set by such discussions, the consumer finally will decide which solutions prevails in practice, may it be in the fields electromobility, smart households or energy saving schemes. In this sense, Energy in motion symbolizes all the rotation and emotion that drives our rapidly transforming energy system forward with all its players, technologies and political agendas.
For the 4th consecutive year, the Munich School of Engineering as a cross-faculty institution highlights the diversity of research on energy related topics being advanced at the TUM, including all its technological, political and strategic facets.
Hence, the call for contributions to the 4th colloquium of the Munich School of Engineering is open: all doctoral students and young researchers are invited to give an insight into their approaches, challenges and results from all energy related research fields.
It is possible to contribute with an oral or poster presentation. More details can be found on www.mse.tum.de.
Oral presentations and poster sessions will be alternated during the event, giving both categories equal attention and spotlight. In an award for both types of participation, the best contributions in each category will be rewarded. Furthermore, plenty of opportunity will be available for further discussion and networking.
Alle Mitglieder der TUM sind eingeladen. Die Veranstaltung bietet Doktorandinnen und Doktoranden der TU München ein Forum, ihre Forschungsziele und -ergebnisse im Rahmen von Vorträgen und Posterpräsentationen sichtbar zu machen. Wir werden Ihnen in Kürze den „Call for Contributions“ zukommen lassen.
Falls wir Ihr Interesse geweckt haben sollten, tragen Sie sich doch schon jetzt den Termin in Ihrem Kalender ein. Die Anmeldung kann später erfolgen.
Die Munich School of Engineering (MSE) ist ein Integrative Research Center der Technischen Universität München. Das Ziel der Munich School of Engineering ist es, Forschung und Lehre an der TUM im Bereich Energie interdisziplinär und fakultätsübergreifend zu verbinden und damit sowohl die Zusammenarbeit innerhalb der TUM als auch die Sichtbarkeit der Kompetenzen im Energiebereich nach außen weiter zu verbessern.
