Meet the board!

Every beginning of September, Scintilla gets a new board. This year she has got three full timers, and one part timer. Together, the members of the 95th board were charged on the 4th of September.

Electrifying your student life at Solar Team Twente

“A student team after a board year? Why not!” And that is how I started another year of evading my studies. In the past year I did however learn a lot. Not only did I got to know the inner workings of a solar powered car, but also what goes on before and after the design of a project. The hassle of designing a working ánd efficient product and how to make sure the manufacturing is foolproof. And to top it all off, end with an amazing race in South Africa.
