At the end of October, there were TV recordings in the SKILL building. There were even three interviews in total. These were made possible by a collaboration of the three northern regional broadcasters RTV North, RTV Drenthe and Omrop Friesland. This was about the start of the EngD Autonomous Systems. This Engeneering Doctorate was created from a collaboration between the University of Groningen, innovative (mostly ICD-affiliated) companies in the North and the Innovation Cluster DrachtenAmong other things, the lecture hall in the SKILL building will be used.
The above photo shows the interview by Steven Radersma of RTV Noord. Here Scientific Directors Paris Avgeriou and the very first student Niek Löke were interviewed in the SKILL building. In addition, interviews were also held at Ventura Systems CV, where Niek Löke will perform his EngD, and at ASTRON, where the second student Robbie Luijben will soon start.
