Conference: “Engineers and the Environment: When Nature Inspires Science”

Tuesday, April 18, 2017, from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m.
Polytech Montpellier, Serge Peytavin lecture hall, building 31, Triolet campus
What is the role of engineers in addressing the major scientific and environmental challenges of today and tomorrow? This is the question that will be explored by Gilles Pipien, Senior Engineer at the French Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport.
The conference will provide an opportunity to rethink how we articulate economics and biodiversity, and to assess how, with biomimicry, nature can be a source of inspiration. This is yet another strong sign of Polytech Montpellier's commitment to sustainable development and social responsibility (SD&SR).
The lecture will be followed by a bioethics cocktail reception.
