The Innovative Vehicle Technologies Competence Center, which is part of the Bosch innovation ecosystem, was handed over to the Faculty of Transportation Engineering and Vehicle Engineering of the Budapest University of Technology and Economics. The tools and simulation systems of the new center are unique in Hungarian technical higher education. With the help of this new equiments, students can acquire up-to-date practical knowledge in addition to theory, in line with domestic and international industry trends and needs. The development carried out on the campus of the University – in connection with the BME KJK courses – in addition to the 60-80 university students per year, it also provides a modern space for the faculty’s instructors to support their professional work.

The European Institute of Innovation and Technology organizes a workshop focusing on the raw materials sector (EIT RawMaterials), food industry and agriculture (EIT Food), and climate change (EIT Climate-KIC). The Hackathon is realized in cooperation with the Climate Innovation Community and the Moholy-Nagy University of Arts. With the help of Design Thinking trainers, students have the opportunity to get to know the user-centered approach to innovation, learn to use their design toolkit in such a way as to combine user needs, new technological possibilities and the conditions for business success in a single solution. During the workshop, they can improve their problem-solving and teamwork skills, while meeting and working with young people with similar interests, not only supporting the fight against climate change with their ideas, but also preparing for EIT’s business development programs, strengthening the entrepreneurial spirit.

Language of the program: Hungarian

Participation is free, but registration is required

The event is also available on social media.

In the case of commercial vehicles, there are still many technologies competing to reduce the environmental impact of mobility. Ádám Nyerges, a researcher and instructor at the Innovative Vehicle Technologies Competence Center, presented his results related to the internal combustion engine in a successful workplace debate. Congratulations, Ádám, and good luck with the public defense!

Is there life beyond electricity? The intensive electrification of transport is a solution for some areas of mobility, but the current technology will not be able to fully replace petroleum-based energy sources – The collegues of the Innovative Vehicle Technologies research group discussed about the developement of new generation fuels on Totalcar.

The Technology of Mobility Conference & Exhibition incorporating the FISITA World Congress 2023, is the hub for the international mobility systems engineering community. FISITA members and other stakeholders from across the global industry will come together over four days to explore the technology, methodology and strategy of mobility, from design, through to manufacture and use by bringing together the many different disciplines of engineering innovation required for the technology of tomorrow’s mobility. Please have a look at the summary and the full broschure of the event!
