BAM signs covenant with Delft University of Technology (TU Delft)

BAM is among 25 parties from government, the business community and knowledge institutions, which signed a covenant for a TU Delft Civil Engineering and Geosciences (CEG) renewal campaign year-end 2009. The objective is to reinforce the links between research and education, on the one hand, and societal problems concerning Delta technology, Construction & Infrastructure and Transport, on the other. Together they have made €13 million available to the renewal campaign for a period of five years. According to the parties it is very necessary to continue working on solutions to urgent problems concerning the liveability and safety of our low-lying deltas, sustainable infrastructure and mobility. During the first few months of 2010, the covenant will be converted into a university agenda per research theme: Delta technology, Transport and Civil Infrastructure.
