With SCEER now becoming a well-established committee of Scintilla, we thought that it would be a great idea to bring back the Datasheet. For those that don’t know, SCEER is Scintilla’s cooking committee, aiming to provide a cheaper and healthier alternative to the long stream of pizzas and burgers that normally get served at activities. We went from cooking at home and bringing it to a drink, to having an arsenal of equipment to serve up to 40 people at a study night or Thursday drink, averaging about 28 people per activity. So, let’s cook something for a large group together!

Hello Vonk Reader. It still feels like I’ve just now gotten comfortable in my position as a board member, and yet we are already looking for a candidate board! But that does not mean my board year is over just yet! There is still a whole other quartile to go. When you are working on the sane things the whole time, it is easy to not lose focus on what it is you enjoy.

Scintilla’s Post-Introduction Camp of 1989 (formerly known as NIKE) can be considered a historic moment not only for Scintilla, but the whole University of Twente. That is because this event was the birthplace of a tradition that is highly regarded within Scintilla: the cantus. The very first Cantus Scintillae was held during this Introduction Camp, and since then the Cantus has become an iconic student tradition that is well practiced by most associations of the UT. Of course, the history of the Cantus Scintillae is well-documented in the Codex Scintillae, but how did events really go down? The editorial team of De Vonk set up a reunion and conversation with the Senate of the 1st Cantus Scintillae to gather memories of their times at Scintilla and the events that led to the first Cantus of Enschede.

TenneT is renovating the 110kV network in the Overijssel province as part of the Harculo-Hengelo program. Witteveen+Bos and Bilfinger Tebodin are designing the branch Almelo-Noord under the E-Merge banner.

To work with extreme specifications to build a machine that meets the requirements that are still years ahead from now. For ASML’s engineers, it’s everyday’s business. They follow the in 1965 invented Moore’s Law, that serves as the heartbeat for technological evolution that manufacturers of microchips, ASML’s customers, strive for. So, ASML basically has a glass sphere that predicts what its lithography machines should be able to do. However, the development of these machines requires ASML to venture on technological adventures – expeditions that often seem impossible, but are ever surprising. ...

During your bachelor’s, you encounter a lot of different aspects within the field of electronics. Since EE is so broad, you slowly specialize over the years. In module 7, the first choice is offered: either Device Physics or Network Systems. Right before the bachelor’s degree is earned, students start their graduation assignment. In your thesis, you focus even more on a specific part of electronics. The bachelor’s can be followed with a master’s in the same or another specialization. ...
