Delft is a popular tourist destination in the Netherlands, famously for its historical links with the Royal Family, for its blue pottery, and for being home to the painter Jan Vermeer. The city of Delft with its tree-lined canals, charming buildings and rich history is sure to provide a delightful setting for the conference.

The Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) is the oldest and largest Dutch public technical university. The university is one of the most premier universities, and internationally acclaimed for its research output and technological innovations. The campus of TU Delft is equally impressive: stretching over 161 hectares through beautiful green park areas – it is larger than Delft city centre, and indeed one of the largest in the world.

The Faculty of Aerospace Engineering at TU Delft is one of the world’s most highly ranked (and most comprehensive) research, education and innovation communities devoted entirely to aerospace engineering. More than 200 science staff, around 250 PhD candidates and over 2,700 BSc and MSc students apply aerospace engineering disciplines to address the global societal challenges that threaten us today, climate change without doubt being the most important. The focal subjects: sustainable aerospace, big data and artificial intelligence, bio-inspired engineering and smart instruments and systems.
