TU Delft Honours Programme
The Delft Honours Programme is aimed at talented and motivated students at TU Delft who would like to take on an extra challenge in addition to their regular study programme. Taking part in the Honours Programme involves following an upgraded study programme. There is a common component of the programme, which is the same for all Honours students, but the main component provides plenty of room for your own initiative. Once you have completed the programme you will receive a certificate.
Study abroad
Students can take Specialisation Modules from universities outside the Netherlands and/or do research abroad. Pre-approval of the Board of Examiners is always needed. Possibilities to go abroad can be discussed with the study advisor.
