Introduction (📖)
On this page, you will be introduced to the structure of our programs. You will learn more about ECTS, which you need to gain in order to get your bachelor's diploma. In addition, some relevant regulations will be introduced to you.

What does the Bachelor course structure look like? (📖)
A Bachelor program is a three-year program consisting of four quarters in each year. In every quarter, three courses are planned. The only exception is the end of the bachelor's, when you will work on your Bachelor Final Project (BFP).

In general, for all Bachelor's degree programs at TU/e, there is a main difference in the type of courses:

Core courses
Your core program matches your field of study. It offers you a solid foundation and a range of specific trajectories to further specialize in. Within each bachelor’s degree program, you will also follow courses regarding the Impact of Technology (ITEC).
Free electives
In your program, you will have space to make some choices in the form of elective courses. These could be subjects from your own department or other departments. With your free electives, you can truly personalize your development as a professional and academic. Do you want to specialize in a single field or theme? Or would you rather combine several fields of study to develop as broadly as possible? The choice is yours. Of course, you don’t have to make all decisions by yourself. Our teachers and academic advisors will support you whenever necessary.

You can discover all types of learning activities you will encounter in your program on the cards on the right.

💡 Tip! You can also find your personal timetable on TimeEdit (TE) Timetable. This will be explained in the module about digital systems (module 4).
