General time consumption: A few medium sized activities each year; 1-2x monthly meetings and frequent mailing and calling with companies.
Usual composition: mix from bachelor and master students
General description
The acquisitioncommittee is a committee dedicated to creating collaboration between (chemical) companies and the ACD. We provide possibilities for advertisements (banners, posters, posts) and special events. These kinds of collaborations are very important to the ACD, as without them we would miss out on a large part of our income. And less income, means less events for our members.
Is this committee something I want?
As a member of the acquisitioncommittee you will be having a lot of contact with companies. This means calling, e-mailing and just about any form of making contact you can imagine. You will make a ton of connections in the world you will enter after your education. If this sounds even remotely like something you would like, then the acquisitioncommittee is definitely something for you.
Example of this committee’s work
On February 15th, 2023 the acquisition committee organized a Company day. The goal was to show ACD-members different chemical companies. After a lot of calling and e-mails there were speakers from Tata Steel, Shell and Teijin Aramid. Afterwards the participants and speakers dined (with a discount) at Maslow.
Members: Tim de Groot, Sverre Overdijk en Janne van Asselt
