Deputy Minister Annette Storsberg is visiting HSRW on 02.07.2019 to view a presentation of ENSPIRE on ENSPIRE. Professors and students have been preparing the day meticulously to leave the best possible impression. Presentations from multiple teams aim to display the progress and prowess of ENSPIRE. The tension of the teams is rising, as this event could have a enormous impact on the future of ENSPIRE.
For the past couple months, the communication team of ENSPIRE has been working in close collaboration with the Managing Director Prof. Dr. William M Megill and the other student teams in order to update the entire webpage. Goal of this was to clean up the design, while still keeping a strong focus on the representation of the student teams and their members. Most pre-existing sites of the webpage were redesigned or restructured to better fulfill their function.
The update is expected to go live this month, as long as no complications arise.
Last race for Rivershark/ Seabomb after 12 years. Successful race in the Mediterranean climate of Southern France
Last semester (WT 2018/2019), the communications team was established.
After getting to know the ENSPIRE project and the teams, we were eager
to start with our first project. Previously, the teams and their
supervising professors had done the communication work stuffed in
between their main team projects. Now that we're taking over, we
dedicate our time to properly managing the communication work. Firstly,
we discussed the goals and expected outcomes of our outreach efforts and
included our results in the communication plan which we created. Then,
we identified actions to achieve these results.
