Pre-master programs
Have you graduated from a Dutch HBO or did you obtain a bachelor’s degree from a Dutch university? And would you like to enroll in a master’s program at TU/e? Your prior education has to be appropriate in order to be admitted, but what if your prior education isn’t suitable? You can make up for this by completing a pre-master’s program.
Why continue studying?
After completing your bachelor’s degree, you’ll be facing the choice of whether to continue studying or to apply for a job. There are several reasons why you might choose a (pre-)master’s program:
- You would like to combine the best of both worlds: the practical knowledge of an HBO program with the academic skills gained at university.
- You would like to deepen your knowledge by taking a master’s that corresponds to your bachelor’s or to broaden your knowledge by taking a master’s with a slightly different approach.
- You are interested in the scientific world and might want to apply for a PhD or EngD program. In these programs, you’ll be educated to become a researcher or a technological designer.
Every master’s has its own program
Every master’s program has its own pre-master’s program, which consists of 30 ECTS from courses and will take you six months to a year. Completing a pre-master’s program doesn’t give you a bachelor’s degree. Instead, you will receive admission to the corresponding master’s degree program.
