After Your Bachelor

After finishing your bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, there are several options on how to proceed. On this page, you will find the main master degree possibilities the UT offers you. Also, you can find information on international double degree programmes. 

what master programmes can you enroll in

With a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, there are multiple master degree options open for you. You have automatic entry to the Master of Science programmes in Mechanical Engineering (ME), Robotics (ROB) and Sustainable Energy Technology (SET) . For more information on the other possibilities, you could utilise the bachelor to master transfer matrix.

Master programmes: me - ROB - set

Graduates of the Bachelor’s programme in Mechanical Engineering have automatic entry to the Master of Science programmes in Mechanical Engineering (ME), Robotics (ROB) and Sustainable Energy Technology (SET). Please consult the respective master programme websites for more information and information on general admission requirements.

In case automatic entry is applicable:

·         If you want to start in September or February, you have to register in Study Link. You don’t have to follow any of the other steps in the UT admission procedure

·         In case of master Mechanical Engineering, Robotics and Sustainable Energy Technology you can start in any other month than September or February except July and August. When you have finished your BSc-programme you will be approached by the Education Office about your plan. If you indicate you want to continue in the master Mechanical Engineering, the Education Office will have you transferred. You don’t have to apply in Study Link or follow any of the other steps in the UT admission procedure

Please note

·         You need to be graduated before you can start in the master programme. The bachelor-before-master regulation is in place (see Regulations | Overview regulations | Home SACC (utwente.nl))

·         In case you choose another programme than ME, ROB or SET, you need to contact the programme of your choice about admission and enrolment

In order to plan the master programmes in an optimal way, please submit this master preference form to give us an indication of student preferences. If you choose the MSc ME, you have to choose a specialisation. For more information on each specialisation see the MSc Mechanical Engineering programme structure.

Note that you are free to change your choice or ask for help in finding your preferenced programme. 

double degree

If you are interested in completing a double master programme, there are two options for you. It is possible to follow both the Mechanical Engingeering and Aeronautics masters programme at ITA, or a double Mechanical Engineering programme at KAIST. These are both two year international programmes where the University of Twente works in association with Instituto Tecnológico de Aeronáutica and KAIST.
