Orientation

Study Abroad Week

The TU Delft Study Abroad Week will be organised by the International Office of IDE. During this week we will give you more information about the Minor Study Abroad and Master Electives Study Abroad. We will organise a fair and different presentations with the most important topics and you will be able to ask further questions you may have about studying abroad.

Partner universities

IDE has over 60 Partner Universities worldwide! We exchange students with our partner universities, so you will be a student at TU Delft and only pay tuition fee here. Partner universities may have different approaches and courses than IDE. Industrial Design Engineering is a wide field of study. Some partner universities will focus more on design/technical aspects/automotive/sustainability/etc. We advise you to read the websites of the universities you are interested in and read the student reports; this will give you a good understanding of what a university has to offer.
