Twente Graduate School (TGS) coordinates all doctoral programmes
You can either pursue a career in scientific research, leading to a PhD degree or opt for a more practical, design-oriented Engineering Doctorate (EngD).
Each programme centres on topics closely related to the work going on at our research institutes and is taught and supervised by expert researchers and designers. Find out more about the research-driven PhD opportunities or our design-oriented EngD programmes. The EngD page also explains the differences between PhD and EngD programmes.
