Electrical Engineering

The Bachelor’s in Electrical Engineering teaches you to come up with high-tech solutions to practical problems: What do you need to be able to move a robot arm very quickly and to the nanometre? How do you measure a nano G in order to be able to measure gravitational waves, or building movements? How could you build a chip that works ten times as fast as current chips, with ten times less power?

WHY ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING?

As an electrical engineer, you will be equipped to devise and develop ground-breaking solutions that are faster, more accurate and more sustainable than any known alternatives. Rather than replicating things, you will create applications that did not exist before: your job will be to help shape the world of the future. In this programme, you get to spend around 25% of each module on practical skills in a team project and/ or practical assignment. The problems you will tackle are relevant and your research will contribute to the next steps in your research area.

BENEFIT FROM OUR PERSONAL APPROACH

Electrical Engineering is a small-scale programme with plenty of room for personal attention and development. You will learn to work together with students and professors from other disciplines and cultures, while being surrounded by ambitious students and lecturers who enjoy thinking out of the box.

AFTER YOUR BACHELOR’S

With your bachelor’s degree, you can further specialise by completing a master’s at the University of Twente. Some students immediately join the job market, or start their own business. No less than 99% of our master’s graduates fi nd a job within a month of completing the Electrical Engineering programme. In 20 years’ time, you may have developed the successor to the drone, or you might be working on faster and better pattern recognition for medical or safety applications. More computing power in every telephone chip than there is in today’s supercomputers? You could make it happen!
