29 Masters Degree Programs in Enschede Netherlands

Tackle big (societal) issues at the smallest level: become an expert in the field of Nanotechnology and invent, design, and develop innovative solutions on the extremely small nanoscale. How can you diagnose diseases, such as cancer, at an early stage? Are there more sustainable ways to store energy to make the energy transition possible? And how can you make a sensor that checks water pollution levels on a large scale?

The Master in Innovative Textile Development trains you to become an expert in textile innovation and after graduation, you hold a Master of Science degree. The unique feature is a focus on innovation in textiles in the broadest sense: both technical textiles and textiles for clothing. With this, it provides a unique master's program in the Netherlands and Western Europe. It will give an excellent springboard to the international textile market.

The Master of Science in Applied Nanotechnology is unique in the Netherlands. The most distinguishing feature is its focus on the development of innovative micro- and nanotechnology-based products and applications. The fusion of elements from biology, chemistry, electrical engineering and physics results in nanotechnological materials and devices with unprecedented properties. The programme only starts in September and is taught entirely in English.

This one-year, English-taught Master’s teaches you all about the design and implementation of European public policy, specifically in the context of digital transformation and technological developments. You will learn to deal with the multifaceted challenges and opportunities within Europe and the global geopolitical landscape, exploring the intra-European context as well as Europe’s global standing in comparison to other major players like the USA, Russia, or China. In doing so, you will combine political, sociological, economic, legal, and technological perspectives.

Businesses and organizations today need creative, multidisciplinary managers who combine technological know-how with engineering and management skills. Do you see yourself taking on such a role in, for example, production and logistics, healthcare, and/or financial engineering? Are you excited about using simulations, and mathematical and/or statistical models to solve problems and improve the performance of (international) organizations?

Delve into the field of human-computer interaction and design and develop interactive technologies that are meaningful to people and society. In today’s 21st century, modern technology is integrated into our daily lives more than ever before. But none of the advanced technologies we use today would have been successful if humans failed to interact with them. Human-computer interaction is one of the most important considerations in any kind of technological development. So how can you include the user in the development of new, interactive technologies?

Become an expert mechanical engineer who focuses on the futureproof design, analysis, and maintenance of machinery, structures, products, and production processes. Energy systems, production machinery, airplanes, automobiles, ships, medical devices: many systems and products that are essential to our modern life are in some way a product of mechanical engineering.

Become a sustainable technology pioneer who develops and implements novel, sustainable energy technologies and transitions that are needed in tomorrow’s world. With an ever-growing global population and the energy demands of industries and consumers rising higher than ever before in history, we are rapidly depleting earth’s non-renewable energy resources (oil, gas and coal), and moving to a problematic change of climate.

In today’s business world, social and technological changes follow each other at a rapid pace, shaking up entire markets, including customer expectations, supply chains and business models. In such an evolving field, there’s no sense in just doing business as usual. The Master’s in Business Administration (BA) at the University of Twente will turn you into the innovative, entrepreneurial and highly sought-after business leader that can prepare businesses for the multifaceted challenges of tomorrow.

In this two-year, English-taught Master’s, you’ll gain expertise in project management, procurement, and asset management, while also learning to design, simulate, and optimise construction processes using advanced digital tools. By the end of this programme, you can deliver economic and social value through building and maintaining collaborative networks, and you’ll be equipped to tackle today’s and tomorrow’s societal challenges in the built environment.

Deepen your understanding of the laws of physics to find technical solutions in a wide range of areas such as sustainability, healthcare, energy, digitalization, finance, space, high-tech manufacturing, and more. Can you imagine building electronic systems that are almost as energy efficient as the neurons in our brains? Or encryption technology that makes credit card payments impossible to crack? What about making solar panels significantly more efficient, or medical imaging techniques faster, and more accurate? What opportunities could a quantum computer offer?

Contribute to better healthcare by designing and developing medical innovations for improved diagnostics, treatment, rehabilitation, prevention, and a better quality of life. Can you think of friendlier, less painful, or less harmful methods to detect breast cancer, or to perform an endoscopy? Can you pave the way for animal-free drug testing by developing mini organ-on-a-chip models, that can mimic an actual human organ, like a heart or liver? And what about detecting complex diseases like Parkinson’s or Alzheimer’s at an early stage, or developing an exoskeleton to train paralyzed patients to walk?

Shape the future of electronics by developing novel electronic devices and systems, from circuits to sustainable energy technologies. Electrical engineering is the foundation of technological progress in many fields, such as healthcare, manufacturing, transportation, aerospace, and the automotive industry. Do you want to push the boundaries of what is possible in electrical engineering? Think of innovating chip architecture, researching alternative components to replace transistors in current electronic devices, and making 3D-printed sensors. What about improving medical imaging technologies like MRI and X-rays and developing implantable and wearable medical devices? Electrical engineering also plays a pivotal role in the ongoing energy transition, offering you immense opportunities to contribute to our future. You can enhance solar cell efficiency, facilitate sustainable chip manufacturing processes, and optimize power grids for compatibility with renewable sources like solar and wind energy. If you want to engage in impactful research and innovative technologies that will shape the future of electronics, the Master’s in Electrical Engineering at the University of Twente is the right choice for you!

Contribute to advanced solutions in industrial processes by designing the software and hardware of complex embedded systems in vehicles, pacemakers, chipsets, and other devices. The design of embedded systems is at the core of technological and industrial progress. Embedded systems are building blocks of medical devices, automobiles, industrial machinery, and GPS systems. Even your car’s antilock braking system (ABS) is an embedded system. The design of such systems is crucial for their functionality. If an embedded system can't perform the required task in time with the required quality, this has an immediate effect on the safety of the person. Furthermore, cost- and energy efficiency are crucial.

Become a ‘designeer’ and enrich people’s lives with new and/or better products while continuously improving the development processes involved. In your daily life, without realising, you are continuously surrounded by products. But who designed these products? Why are they shaped the way they are? What user demands do they meet, what processes lie behind the development and what technologies are involved in that process?
