Materiomics: Innovative materials from healthcare across quantum to sustainable technologies
International summer school
Hasselt University is pleased to invite you to participate in our three-day international summer school, aimed at 2nd and 3rd bachelor students with a background in physics or chemistry. The summer school will take place at Hasselt University (Diepenbeek, Belgium) from July 7 to July 9.
This summer school will introduce you to state-of-the-art research in materials science, with a focus on:
• Innovative materials for energy generation, storage, and efficiency
• Sustainable materials for circular processes
• High-tech materials for quantum technologies
• Advanced materials for innovative healthcare.
The scientific program is alternated with social activities and networking opportunities.
In the summer school, several topics on innovative materials design are addressed by professors and researchers of Hasselt University as well as guest speakers from the working field (BIO INX, VITO, ePotentia) and the Silesian University of Technology (Poland). After the welcome on the first day, lectures on materials for energy generation, storage, and efficiency will be given, and a visit to the labs of EnergyVille is scheduled in the afternoon. The second day is devoted to materials for quantum technologies and sustainable materials. The final day includes lectures and a hands-on session to generate insights into materials for innovative healthcare. There will also be a poster session so you can learn about materials research at Hasselt University and its Institute for Materials Research.
More information and the after-movie of last year can be found here
The fee to attend the summer school is only 50 euros and includes coffee breaks, lunches, bus transportation to Energyville, and social activities. Funding for your stay is possible. If interested, please send your resume and cover letter to materiomics@uhasselt.be by May 7. From all submissions, 25 candidates will be chosen to participate in the summer school.

Departmental colloquium on weather and climate modeling by Prof. Steven Caluwaerts (UGent/KMI)
2026-05-13 16:00 - 18:00 UTC | UAntwerpen, Campus Groenenborger, room G.US.024, Groenenborgerlaan 171, Antwerpen, Antwerpen, 2020, Belgium
Professor Steven Caluwaerts will give a talk on weather and climate modeling.
The miracle of atmospheric modelling: past, present and future

Since the mid‑20th century, numerical weather forecasts have been produced, and today we take their remarkable accuracy for granted. More recently, climate projections have entered the public sphere, playing a crucial role in guiding adaptation and mitigation policies. But what science underpins these atmospheric models, and why do they work so well?

In this talk, Prof. Steven Caluwaerts (Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium – Ghent University) will explore the past, present, and future of weather and climate modelling. He will also highlight several ongoing research projects at Belgian research institutions that are advancing our understanding of the atmosphere and its role in a changing climate.
Hybrid meeting can be arranged if enough external interest (let us know on our mail below).
