Programme Structure

At the start of the traineeship, every Engineering Doctorate (EngD) trainee drafts an individual programme and supervision plan, which depends on skills and interests. The programme consists of compulsory and elective components. Advanced MSc-level subjects are offered for trainees who need to fill any MSc-level gaps. The programme coordinator and the team of supervisors must approve this plan. The individual design project topic and the Assessment Committee will be determined during the second half of the first year.

The trainee’s progress and performance will be assessed after nine months. For admission to the second year, all first-year subjects must be completed. The programme coordinator and the team of supervisors perform this assessment.
