information on mechanical engineering
In addition to the well-known Bachelor and Master programs Mechanical Engineering (ME) of the University of Twente (UT), we offer in collaboration with the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU) the Bachelor UTVU Mechanical Engineering programme since 2019.
bachelor
The Bachelor’s programme takes three full years and will provide a solid basis in the chosen discipline. Time scheduled for projects and labs is about one-third of the total number of hours per year (1700 hours). Students not only develop their theoretical knowledge but also learn to apply their knowledge in practical situations. At the end of the Bachelor period, the Bachelor project will give the student the opportunity to start a specialisation.
master
The Master’s programme consists of two academic years. The first year is dedicated to compulsory and elective courses. The second year consists of the internship and the Master’s thesis research.
Often the internship assignment is related to the specialisation field of the student. Sometimes students prefer to make their education as broad as possible and choose to work on a project outside their main specialisation.
