Master’s programme
The total size of the master’s programme is 120 EC (European Credits, where 1 Credit represents 28 hours of work), spread over 2 years. The first year is filled with regular courses, some of which are obligatory (25 EC), some can be chosen within certain constraints (30 EC), and some of which can be chosen freely (albeit subject to approval by the programme mentor). The second year may contain some more regular courses, and may contain a 20 EC traineeship (i.e., working for a few months at a company). It also contains the 30 EC final project, and the 10 EC 'research topics', which is usually a literature study as a preparation to the final project.
In contrast to some of the other programs of the department, the Telematics programme does not have pre-defined specializations to choose from. Instead, tuning your programme to the specific area within Telematics that you are most interested in, is done on an individual basis, in discussion with the programme-mentor.

Graduate school specialization
The Twente Graduate School (TGS), www.utwente.nl/tgs, at the University of Twente offers an increasing variety of integrated master's and PhD programmes for outstanding graduate students who aim at a career in scientific research. The programmes are set up in cooperation between faculties and research institutes. Through a broad selection of compulsory and elective courses, students are able to specialize in a research area of their interest and at the same to broaden their perspective on the societal context of technology and research. All these aspects are integrated into the Twente Graduate School which aims to become a breeding ground for research talent. TGS sets high standards and has a strict selection procedure for both research and education programmes as well as prospective students. For the master’s programme of Telematics, TGS offers one specialization: Wireless and Sensor Systems.
