Kees Overbeeke

Author: Kees Overbeeke

Prof. Dr. Kees Overbeeke (1952-2011) was full professor at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) for Intelligent Products and System Design in the Department of Industrial Design in May, 2006. Kees Overbeeke studied psychology at the Katholieke Universititeit Leuven (1974). After working there he moved to the Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering at Delft University of Technology where he earned his Ph.D (1988) in spatial perception on flat screens. He headed the Form Theory group as an Associate Professor until his move to the Department of Industrial Design of TU/e in 2002. During the academic year 2005-2006 he was invited as the Nierenberg Chair of Design at Carnegie Mellon's School of Design in Pittsburgh. At TU/e he headed the Designing Quality in Interaction group until September 2011.

It is with great sadness that we announce the loss of Kees Overbeeke, on October 8th, 2011 at the age of 59.
