Welcome to Visiting Professor Dr. Thaleia Konstantinou
Dr. Thaleia Konstantinou will stay with us until July 15th and she will be engaging in a diverse array of activities encompassing research, education, and knowledge exchange.
Research: Her primary focus will be on technology integration, circularity, and industrialization for building renovations. Together with our team and our colleagues at ITA, Thaleia will explore innovative approaches to façade design, manufacturing, and circularity.
Teaching: She will be actively involved in advising PhD students and research projects. Additionally, she will participate as a tutor and external critic in our “Design for Climate” studio.
Networking and Collaboration: One of her goals during the visit is to establish strong networks and research collaborations between TU Delft, her base university, and ETH Zurich. By facilitating knowledge exchange for students and researchers, she will contribute to the enrichment of both institutions' academic endeavors.
Sharing Insights: As part of her visiting professorship, Thaleia will be organizing a public lecture to share insights from her TUD's activities and research on building envelope renovation.
