Eindhoven University of Technology

Eindhoven University of Technology or Technische Universiteit Eindhoven (TU/e) - public higher education institution in Netherlands.

Eindhoven University of Technology - Description

The TU/e intends to be a research-driven, design-oriented university of technology, with the primary objective of providing young people with an academic education within the engineering science & technology domain. The primary task is the training of engineers (at Master of Science level) possessing a sound scientific basis and depth of knowledge, as well as the necessary competences that will enable them to develop successful careers in a wide range of fields and functions within the community. The bachelor?s programs (BSc) are intended to serve as a basis for further education at Master?s level. The TU/e also trains teachers (at Master of Science level), designers (at the Professional Doctorate in Engineering level) and researchers (at Doctor of Philosophy level). In addition, it provides postacademic programs and courses. In the research field the TU/e prefers to focus, within the engineering science & technology domain, on the specific areas in which it takes or can take a significant role in the international scientific world, and in which it can make meaningful contributions to the knowledge-intensive industries and other sectors of the community with a high, or rapidly developing, technology intensity.

Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) is a research-driven and design-oriented technology university of international allure. Its focus is coherent education, research and knowledge valorization in the field of engineering science & technology. In the education area TU/e educates engineers (Master of Science) that have a solid scientific basis and depth as well as the competences required to succeed in a wide range of societal sectors and jobs. In addition, TU/e educates designers (Professional Doctorate in Engineering) and researchers (Doctor of Philosophy) as well as academically trained science teachers (Master of Science).In the research area TU/e prefers to focus on those fields of engineering science & technology in which it can play a significant role in the international scientific world (science for science) and where it can provide meaningful impulses to solving the major societal issues (science for society) and strengthen knowledge-intensive industry (science for industry).Fundamental research spurred on by fascination provides the requisite basis for more applied research. In the field of knowledge valorization TU/e is committed to ensuring that its research results are translated into successful innovations and new companies. TU/e encourages students and staff to be entrepreneurial. The quality of the education and research complies with high international standards. TU/e offers both students and staff an international and academic, intellectually stimulating, climate of study and work. This inspires broad personal development, societal and cultural engagement as well as an entrepreneurial outlook. On its campus TU/e encourages the location and cooperation of higher education institutions, research institutes and (new) high-tech enterprises. The campus is developing into a TU/e Science Park of national significance and international allure. TU/e profiles itself as a leading international university specializing in engineering science & technology whose top-level education and research contribute to: • progress in the engineering sciences, • the development of technological innovations and, thereby, • the solution of major societal issues and the growth of welfare and prosperity. It is, therefore, the engine of the regional knowledge economy. In brief, TU/e is the university where innovation starts
