Stress among staff and students at TU Delft
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 тра 2018
- 70-hour working weeks, a lot of responsibilities and the never ending need to publish: all signs of an academic environment that is under pressure. Stress, burn-outs and being overworked are not exceptional anymore. Six out of ten employees of the TU experience a higher work load then they would like and also students have to deal with a lot of pressure.
What should the TU Delft do about this? Provide more guidance for dealing with stress? Or are stress and pressure simply part of studying? Are burn-outs just a trend and an overreaction, or should we actively look for a solution to prevent it?
Join fellow students, teachers and policy makers for a debate on the increasing pressure of the workload of our university, followed by free drinks at the Teaching Lab. This event is organised jointly by Studium Generale, Delta, TU Delft Debating Club and the Teaching Lab
The panel will consist of:
Rob Mudde, President of Education at TU Delft
Ali Haseltalab, PhD Student at 3ME
Jorino van Rhijn, President of VSSD Student Union
Oh man, I've just wanted to applied in that campus this year.
So you omitted interviews at the Aerospace Faculty, perfect!
Why is it perfect? (I am seeking to apply to the Aerospace program, and I am gathering information about it, thanks~)
always thought that aerospace is like the stepkid among the faculties, it's located really really far to the south
@@wandering_prince i think he was being sarcastic
oh! my bad :-(
@@wandering_prince Did you end up applying? Because the reason Ashwin made his comment is probably that AE is known as the heaviest TU Delft undergrad.
(Disclaimer: Obviously this is different per person, some will find other majors harder, but I doubt the stereotype would be as prevalent as it is if there was no basis for it.)
All hail delft
I think there is always a lot of pressure in all prestige institutes.
Well... In India it's common for engineers to not study at all, until the final week of exam and somehow pass. It's called the engineering strategy. So how this works is:
1. The student should not do any homework, until the last weeks of the tests.
2. Build pressure on your classmates, by not letting them study.
3. Build pressure on yourself.
4. You now have 1 week to prepare for the test, so if you don't pay 100% attention, then you are over.
@@dustbharat3593 Well, I believe this to be a kind of a joke base on evidence. But we always have got people who love to work hard(or just choose to because of whatever they want out of it) and also those who only study until the last week of term.
Stress was my breakfast, lunch, and dinner when I studied there
Was it worth it? I just want to know.
Who’s that guy (on the right) in the beginning? Asking for a friend.
I just got an admit for masters in TU Delft
Congratulations !!!
