Overview of the programme (incl courses)
The PDEng programme in Energy and Process Technology is a two year programme that consists of three blocks: a compulsory block, a project specific specialization block and the Designer project. These blocks run parallel to each other. The compulsory block provides the basics in designing and professional skills by means of the course in Systems Engineering and a selection of Professional Development courses. These professional development courses can be merged by the trainee himself. The specialization block is a completely elective block, and allows both the organization and the students to narrow their focus to the key areas of the expertise at the organization. See below for the complete range of elective courses.
The main part of the PDEng programme is the practical part, by working on the assignment at the organization. This project is problem-oriented and takes the form of a design.
