Bachelor Creative Technology

As a Creative Technology graduate, you can work on all kinds of projects that are important for our future society. For example, you could be the person who designs and carries out solutions for urban flooding, so that people in areas sensitive to flooding can keep their feet dry when the sea level rises. Or maybe you will be the creative mastermind behind a new robot with emotional awareness, or a 3D printer that can produce an artificial hip. Whether you choose to continue studying after your bachelor’s or want to explore the many career options, your work will matter!

Within Creative Technology, there's a lot of room for personal attention and development; we encourage you to engage in extracurricular activities that will stimulate your personal growth. You may even get study credits for such initiatives, if you can show that a certain activity is important to you, contributes to what you want to achieve and is related to your field of study. Think, for example, of attending a conference, assisting a researcher, taking a study trip abroad, or taking a course on video production. Who knows, one of your designs may attract the spotlight at the Dutch Design Week, the Almelo Light Challenge, or the Gogbot festival! Your ideas and input matter - we want to support whatever helps you flourish on a professional and personal level. 

As a student Creative Technology, you will become acquainted with many different aspects of technology and the entire creative design process: from mapping out the research question to brainstorming about solutions, and from researching your target group to building the first working prototype and testing it in real life. Putting your knowledge into practice during multidisciplinary projects with other students from all over the world will prepare you to work across cultural and disciplinary borders - much like the work field you will enter after graduation. Our richly varied study programme and project-oriented education will open up many exciting directions and help you become the well-rounded, internationally oriented professional the future needs!
