Professionals are welcome to participate in courses from the master’s programs of the Engineering Technology faculty, such as Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Sustainable Energy Technology. The study load is approximately 140 hours, with most (work)lectures taking place at the University of Twente. We offer professionals the flexibility to enroll in full courses or, depending on the course, selected components, supported by flexible learning options and professional guidance. In addition, we provide customized advice on supplementary or related courses and programs to best meet individual needs.
Each academic year is divided into four quarters, each consisting of ten weeks. A course is offered once per year, during one of these quarters. The typical study workload for a master’s-level course is 5 European Credits (ECTS/EC). Under Dutch law, one EC represents 28 hours of study; therefore, a 5 EC course corresponds to 140 hours of full-time study. Course fees are determined in advance and are based on the number of ECs. The cost per EC is €325. For example, a 5 EC course would cost €325 × 5 = €1,625.
