Stylos Travel Grant

“Aerospace Engineering has a wind tunnel, Electrical Engineerging, Math, Physics & Computer Science have their laboratories but Architecture has a planet full of buildings.” professor and engineer Hein de Haan once said. More than 50 years ago the Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment decided to call for a committee to formulate criteria to examine the aim of trips organized by students. Each student is once along his or her study eligible to apply for the so-called Stylos Grant to join an excursion. Currently, the possible financial aid is €100,- per person. For questions concerning the Stylos Travel Grant, contact info@stylos.nl.
