Transferring from university of applied sciences (HBO) to Biomedical Engineering
Students with a Bachelor’s Degree in a relevant field of study (for example Applied Physics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering or Chemical Engineering) may be considered for admission after first completing a pre-master's. Admission to the pre-master’s is dependent on your prior education, your chosen specialisation and the coherence between the two. The programme will be composed of courses in mathematics and content-specific courses related to the chosen specialisation.
EXAMPLE OF PRE-MASTER’S FOR THE FOLLOWING HBO STUDIES:
- Technische Natuurkunde: Pre-Master's in 'Imaging and in vitro Diagnostics'
- Werktuigbouwkunde: Pre-Master's in 'Biorobotics'
- Elektrotechniek: Pre-Master's in 'Physiological Signals and Systems’
- Chemische Technologie: Pre-Master's in 'BioEngineering Technologies'
Application
Please follow the specific application instructions when applying with a Dutch HBO Degree. The deadline for a pre-master application is the 1st of June.
