The University of Twente is a young entrepreneurial research university with proven excellence in the field of new technologies and their impact on society and humanity.

The University of Twente is unique in its capacity to break down and cross over the boundaries between disciplines.

As a modern, entrepreneurial university, Twente is renowned for its engineering approach when supporting industry and commerce, and its creation of new innovative businesses. This approach provides unexpected solutions in areas such as health, sustainable energy, water, learning and safety.

Within the framework of the Twente Graduate School, integrated MSc and PhD programmes will be offered in cooperation with the university’s research institutes and their most excellent researchers. The Twente Graduate School is a breeding ground for research talent. It sets high standards. There is a rigorous selection for the research and educational programmes.
