General information

Location of the Student Laboratoria Twente

The Laboratories of the TNW study programmes for students are located on floor 4 of the Carré building, on the northwest side.

Access to Laboratory work

Most laboratory work is a part of a module or a course and is organized in close collaboration with the responsible teachers. Most of the practical time-slots are available to choose your most convenient schedule. This can be done via enrolment in the online SLT-enrolment system.

In case students are free to choose between various experiments, you can indicate your preferences in this system. Also, the formation of groups can be facilitated via the SLT-enrolment system. Groups will then be indicated and by selecting the free position in the list, you make yourself a member of that group.

Important: Subscriptions to an experiment, group or experiment can be overruled by the SLT-staff in accordance with the teachers.

Laboratory access times (Note: times in the afternoon differ from College times!)

Access time for complete dayparts are:

• Morning:           8:45-12:30h
• Afternoon:        13:15-17:00h

Times may differ from the standard ones in case the special requirements apply. Always check the schedules beforehand.

Not present at assigned times:

In case you cannot be present at times in the laboratories that are assigned to you (either by yourself via subscription or by teachers or the SLT-staff) first try to switch with one of the students that are scheduled for another time. In case this is not possible – short time notice – then contact us as soon as possible (see list below). This gives us the possibility to inform the assistants and anticipate the situation.

Lab-session missed:

Absence at one of the sessions can possibly be rescheduled on short notice: You have to contact the teacher or assistants as soon as possible to find a way to fulfil the requirements of the experimental work.
