Engineering Content

We want first and foremost that you gain solid basic knowledge of science and technology so that you can delve deeper into certain technological disciplines. This is increasingly necessary as the most promising technological evolutions are of a multi- or interdisciplinary character. But because an engineer also has to be able to communicate clearly and manage efficiently, these skills are also included.

Technology and science

In the first two program stages of the bachelor's program, you are offered a broad scientific/technological knowledge base in all fields: matter and chemistry, energy and physics, information and mathematics, life and biology.

In the third program stage, you delve more deeply into one of these four disciplines, paying attention to each of the technological aspects with which engineers can come into contact within the discipline.

The course units are designed in such a way that you acquire the necessary theoretical and practical knowledge and skills to be able, within the Engineering Experiences, to make the necessary analyses and apply the new ideas in both education and work life.

Management

We introduce the structure of a company in the first program stage. In the second and third, you learn a variety of management techniques that you can then apply within the Engineering Experiences: finance, marketing, operations and project management.

Communication

We emphasize giving presentations, drafting reports, leading meetings, and being persuasive. We also pay attention to international communication. In the final program stage, you sit an internationally recognized English language test.
