Location of Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e)
Mechanical engineering is a very broad discipline. It focuses on conceiving, designing, analyzing, making and improving mechanical products, processes and systems.
In the Master's degree program Mechanical Engineering you learn to apply concepts and models to complex engineering issues arising in science and industry. Teaching and research are closely integrated within this program. You are kept aware of the latest developments in the discipline. You become familiar with all the latest tools and technologies. As soon as you register for the program you choose one of the five graduation tracks: Computational and Experimental Mechanics, Dynamical Systems Design, Thermo Fluids Engineering, Automotive Engineering Science and Micro and Nanotechnology. The first year is dedicated to elective courses and an internship. Most of the second year is dedicated to an in-depth graduation project, based on the knowledge you have gained during your track. Mechanical Engineering at the TU/e is regularly at the top of the list in mechanical engineering research assessments, while the education program has been the number one in the Netherlands for many years. Almost all graduates quickly find the job they are looking for in business, knowledge institutes or universities. Some of them start up their own company or decide to carry out a doctoral research.
