Monday 24th April, starting 11:00 CET, TU Delft (Delft University of Technology) and Bouwen met Staal (Dutch Steel Construction Institute) will organize the online DOSS Award Ceremony 2023, presenting the nominees and announce the winner of this year’s international prize for graduation-projects by master students in civil engineering worldwide.
At the event the six nominees will each give a personal elucidation on their appraised master thesis. The nominee-presentations will be varied by short lectures on interesting developments within the steel building industry.
The occlusive highlight of the ceremony is (of course) the announcement of the winning thesis. A jury consisting of 17 internationally recognized members will vote the winner of the DOSS Award 2023. The ceremony-participants will have the opportunity to vote for their favourite, the “public winner”.
The winner will receive a reward of 2500 Euro, travelling expenses supported by Zeman Bauelemente and an invitation to present the winning project at Eurosteel 2023 in Amsterdam, 12-14 September.
