General information

All courses are taught in English, except for:

1| Course units marked with * are projects with individual coaching in English. The topic of the project is determined in advance based on your interests and background, and the research areas of the respective master programme. The size of the project can also vary (9, 20, 30 ECTS). In this way, you have a wide range of possibilities to compose your personal study programme. These courses can only be taken once in your programme.

2| Courses marked with ** are projects with a few classes in Dutch, study material and project guidance in English.

IMPORTANT:

1| All courses are elective.

2| Combining course units from the different exchange programmes of the Master of Engineering Technology is possible but not recommended because timetable clashes may occur. This implies that a choice must be made. Students cannot be admitted to courses whose classes they cannot attend.
