Our organisation: faculties/schools, research institutes and service departments

Faculties

The education (Bachelor’s and Master’s programmes) and research are organised within our five faculties/schools:

Next to the programmes administered by the faculties mentioned above, University College Twente offers the broad honours BSc programme ATLAS and Twente Graduate School offers post graduate education (PhD and EngD). 

Service departments

The service departments below support education and research at the campus. All their products and services will be bundled in the UT Service Portal (utwente.nl/serviceportal). At this point CES and SP still need to be moved there.

Research institutes

Our strength lies in the collaboration between the various disciplines. In the research institutes the University of Twente connects technology (high tech) to human behaviour and social relevance (human touch).
