Thesis - Operations and Supply Chain Management focussed on project organizations and the difference between Maintenance and Design and Construct projects.

In my traineeship by Trebbe, I have done research on new concepts for energy zero houses. I have tried to design an energy zero concept for the middle price segment. I have tried to give insight in the housing costs of a green house over about 30 years in different scenarios. The result of my research was a energy zero concept with lower housing costs than a regular house.

In my second traineeship for the Bachelor of Engineering I had the role as supervisor on the construction site of Nestle in Nunspeet. For me, this was a great learning experience, because I got the responsibility for this project.

In my first traineeship I had the role as assistant-supervisor on a renovation project of 223 houses in Dronten. Through a lot of communication with the resident in this project I improved my social skills.
