Recent Evaluations of TU/e and Master’s Program Innovation Sciences Times Higher Education Ranking place worldwide Masters Innovation Sciences Top Masters in NL (82 points) Intelligent Community of the Year 2011

Evaluation by external committee  Every couple of years the educational program is evaluated by an external committee (last time in 2010). Overall judgment: GOOD  NVAO awarded Innovation Sciences the special quality mark ‘internationalization’, assessing the internationalization as ‘good’. “The strength of the Master program lays in the compulsory international semester, the international composition of the staff and the relatively high number of foreign students.” PAGE 6

The Challenges of Smart Technologies PAG E 7 Smart Energy ICT Cities Living Smart technologies: aimed at sustainable economic development & higher quality of life

Student profiles Profiles Energy ICT Built environment Pre-knowledge / Interest Technology Renewable energy, smart meters Broadband, Internet, Big data Energy-efficient buildings PAG E 8 Social Science Transition, regulation Public utility, cooperatives Adoption of new technology

Profile Energy: Example Smart Meters Smart meters: Convergence energy and ICT solutions But: Why is not taking off? What is the function of energy companies? Who owns the meter and the data? (Source: J. Naus)

Profile Energy: Example Electrical Cars Business Model: Customer should not own battery > battery exchange Re-charging infrastructure Social Problem: Failure of Energy Infrastructure? Electrical cars

Profile Energy: Example Re-charging energy infrastructure PAGE 11 Source: Alkemade et al 2015 Problem: Breakdown of Energy Infrastructure with recharging electrical cars?

Profile ICT: Example consumer cooperatives Fiber optics at home > 200 initiatives in NL Cooperatives (eg. Heeze-Leende) ~ 5 initiatives in NL Why?

Profile Built Environment: Example Sustainable Technologies Should developing countries use sustainable technologies?
