Faculty

A faculty is a main department of the university. There are a number of related programmes and research groups linked together within a faculty. The UT has six faculties.

The Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS) comprises three disciplines, each of which again has connections with other disciplines.

Besides teaching, research is carried out in the faculties by our research groups/chairs.

This research is entirely clustered in the university research institutes Institute for Nanotechnology (MESA+) and the Centre for Telematics and Information Technology (CTIT), IMPACT and MIRA.

Dean of the faculty of EEMCS is prof.dr.ir. Ton Mouthaan. With him rests ultimate responsibility for all of the faculty’s educational programmes.

The faculty offers the following educational programmes:

Bachelor’s programmes:

Electrical Engineering (EL)

Computer Science (INF)

Applied Mathematics (TW)

Creative Technology (CreaTe)

Master’s programmes:

Applied Mathematics (AM)

Computer Science (CSC)

Electrical Engineering (EE)

Embedded Systems (ESYS)

Human Media Interaction (HMI)

Mechatronics (MECH)

Systems and Control (SC)

Telematics (TEL)

At the head of every educational programme is a programme director. He marks the outlines of the educational programme and is responsible for the content of the educational programme and its courses.

For EE (BSc and MSc) and MECH this is dr.ir. W. Olthuis (Wouter)

For AM (BSc and MSc) and SC this is dr. J.W. Polderman (Jan Willem)

For CSC (BSc and MSc) and TEL this is dr.ir. R. Langerak (Rom)

For CreaTe en HMI this is dr. G.F. van der Hoeven (Gerrit)

For ESYS this is prof.dr.ir. G.J.M. Smit (Gerard)
