TechMed Centre experience - Open House UT
The University of Twente will open its doors on Saturday 3 June. Young and old, people who are curious about what takes place on campus are welcome and discover various activities. The TechMed Centre Institute will of course join this great initiative. In the TechMed Centre (Technohal, building No 18) we create for the little ones, a 'Children's Square' and older children and adults can walk around the building and will be informed/inspired at demos and join workshops. In addition, we refer visitors to other TechMed facilities located on the campus of the University of Twente (but not located in the TechMed Centre (Technohal).

TechMed Experience
Do you want to experience what is taking place on a technological medical aspect on the University of Twente (and possibly in collaboration with partners)? Then we recommend that you follow this tour. We have mapped out a route that takes you via our highlights. At every 'stop' a demo/workshop/explanation will take place at certain times. This will take place in small groups and takes a few minutes. If you have just missed this, you can wait for it or walk to the next stop (and always walk back). Personalize your own TechMed experience!
