This year’s Studium Generale is devoted to the multifaceted theme of ‘Energy’. With their lecture ‘Bioenergy: The Farmer as an Energy Producer’, the speakers Dr Franz-Josef Stork, Director of the Haus Riswick Research and Education Centre in Kleve, Dr Ulrich Werneke, Managing Director of the Kleve District Nature Conservation Centre (Naturschutzzentrum im Kreis Kleve e.V.), and Prof. Dr Matthias Kleinke, Professor of Environmental Engineering at Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences, will continue the series of events on 7 November 2017 at 7.00 pm with their lecture ‘Bioenergy: The Farmer as an Energy Producer’.
The provision of renewable energy has played an increasingly important role in recent years – including for the agricultural sector. This brings with it new opportunities as well as a number of challenges. The speakers will examine this development from various perspectives and invite participants to engage in stimulating and, at times, controversial discussion.
The event will take place at the Kleve campus of Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences, Marie-Curie-Straße 1, Lecture Theatre Centre, ground floor, Room 01 EG 005 (Lecture Theatre 1).
The lecture forms part of the Studium Generale programme and has been designed to make academic research accessible through lectures that are easy for the general public to understand. The lecture programme is aimed at the general public, students, school pupils and those interested in science in the region, as well as professors and staff at Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences, with a focus on general, universal education. The lecture series also provides a platform for lively exchange and discussion on current issues.
Attendance at the Studium Generale lectures at Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences is free of charge and no prior registration is required. Further information on the Studium Generale is available online at www.hochschule-rhein-waal.de/de/veranstaltungen/studium-generale.
