Before joining
If you are currently reading this the likelihood of you participating in the open days or orienting for your bachelor choice is presumably high. At this page you can find more information about ways to get to know the study Advanced Technology better, admission requirements and explanation how to apply.
In addition, on the bottom of your screen you can see a timeline of a typical Advanced Technology student, which if you decide to enrol for this programme, you will more or less follow as well. If you have any questions during this trip through the curriculum of Advanced Technology, check out the info page!
Twice a year (March and November), the University of Twente organizes Bachelor’s Open Days. A visit to the Open Days will allow you to obtain information about the programmes offered by the University of Twente. You will receive information about the study programmes and can talk directly to the programme staff and students. In November 2020 the Open Days will take place online. More information can be found here: https://www.utwente.nl/en/opendays/bachelor/.
Student for a day
A Student for a Day is an individual orientation day, during which you will accompany a current student from the bachelor’s programme you have selected for a whole day. You will experience what it is like to study at the University of Twente and in the chosen bachelor’s programme.
In the college year 2020-2021, there will be possibilities to have a Skype conversation with a current student to ask anything you want to know. More information about the Student for a Day experience or Skype conversations can be found here: https://www.utwente.nl/en/student-for-a-day/bachelor/
Matching with AT
At the University of Twente, we believe it is important for you to choose a programme that suits you, so that you will be able and motivated to complete your studies successfully. For this reason, we organize orientation and matching activities before you start. These allow you to really familiarize yourself with the programme of your choice, so that you will know for certain that it is a good fit for you. Would you like to know more about the matching process?
Read more about the activities here.
Once you have signed up for Advanced Technology you will receive an invitation for a matching day. This is a great day to see what the study is about and meet potential fellow students. During this half day you will attend three short lectures which will give you an indication of the education methods and study fields within AT. In addition, it is also possible to have an interview with the study advisor during or after this day.
The matching day will take place 4 times a year on campus, or online for international students. It is obligated to join a matching day to be admitted to the programme.
Admission Requirements
The admission requirements for the Advanced Technology programme depend on the prior education you have succeeded in.
You will be directly admitted to the Bachelor’s programme in Advanced Technology if you possess a Dutch VWO diploma with a profile in Natuur & Techniek. You may also be eligible to start the programme with a profile in Natuur & Gezondheid, but only with the subjects Wiskunde B and Natuurkunde. Furthermore, you may be eligible to start the programme with another profile, but only with the subjects Wiskunde B, Scheikunde and Natuurkunde.
Students from outside the Netherlands should have a pre-university secondary education comparable to the Dutch VWO diploma, with equivalent Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry subjects. The Dutch VWO diploma includes English and therefore from prospective students an English equivalent is expected. As the programme is taught entirely in English, a high level of English proficiency (CEFR, B2/C1 level; minimum IELTS score of 6.0, or equivalent) is also required. For more information, please contact our Admissions Office.
Are you an international student and is your secondary education not comparable to the Dutch VWO diploma? However, you would like to take Advanced Technology? The University of Twente offers you the possibility to take a foundation year after which you will be admissible. If the deficiency in Physics or Chemistry is small an admission on individual basis can be considered.
If you possess a German Abitur, you can gain admission to the programme if you have studied English, Mathematics and Physics to Abitur level. Please note it is not necessary to have taken these subjects as Leistungskurs. If the deficiency in Physics or Chemistry is small an admission on individual basis can be considered.
