Mechanical Engineering (UT

Do you want to become an expert in inventing, designing, improving and maintaining all kinds of devices, machines, constructions and processes? From a roller coaster, an aeroplane, or a future energy installation to an innovative hearing aid, or a robotic hand? Are you looking for a university that combines mechanical engineering theory with realistic team projects? If you are, our English-taught Bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering is the right choice for you.

WHY MECHANICAL ENGINEERING?

In this programme you will acquire all the scientific theory and skills you would expect from a bachelor’s, while we are also committed to practical application and to developing your versatility and resourcefulness. For example, in every module, you and your project team will tackle a real-life challenge. Our TIME programme (Twente Introduction to Mechanical Engineering) will help you transition quickly from secondary school to university. In the very first week you will gear up from mathematics and physics to mechanical engineering, familiarising yourself with systematic problemsolving. We offer intensive personal coaching and guidance. This will also help you learn to work with experts in other disciplines; your skills in interdisciplinary collaboration will give you an edge on the job market. Another asset is our international profile: you will be studying with students and staff from many countries and engaging in an internationally oriented curriculum.

AFTER YOUR BACHELOR’S

Demand for highly educated mechanical engineers is increasing both in the Netherlands and abroad. Especially if you complete a master’s, you will be a respected professional with excellent career opportunities. Many graduates quickly find jobs in leadership positions, for example, as a technical specialist or team leader. You may work in production and development in the machine or equipment building industry, in the automotive, aircraft, chemical or electro-technical industry, at a research institute or university, with an engineering firm, or as a healthcare engineer.
