Health & Safety, University Emergency
Services
Like the staff of TU Delft, students are entitled to a safe and healthy workplace/
study space. This also entails the obligation to act in the interests of your own
safety and that of others. The Netherlands has working conditions legislation
(‘ARBO legislation’) in place governing safety standards and rules of conduct.
TU Delft also has specific environmental, health & safety rules.
Basic rules
Students may not enter technical areas. Performance of actions and experiments
involving an element of risk are only permitted on the instruction of and with
permission of the supervisor. Anyone who suspects that he or she may be
exposed to risk in the performance of an assignment may refuse that assignment and contact the Health & Safety Adviser concerning the matter.

University Profile
Undesirable behaviour
Aggression, sexual intimidation, threats, pestering and discrimination are considered undesirable behaviour and are not tolerated. Undesirable behaviour can be
reported to the Executive Board. You can also contact your faculty’s confidential
adviser, who can handle complaints discretely.
Smoking prohibited
TU Delft is a non-smoking institution. Smoking is not permitted anywhere except
in the smoking areas and locations where smoking is temporarily permitted. Violation of the non-smoking rule is considered undesirable behaviour. Anyone who
is being disturbed by smoking can report it to the Health & Safety Adviser or the
confidential adviser.
Computer work
Intensive computer work can lead to neck and upper body problems. These conditions are commonly referred to as ‘RSI.’ The chance of RSI is increased when
working under pressure, in situations such as completing a thesis. Advanced RSI
is very difficult to cure and should be avoided at all costs. Make sure your working posture is always correct and take short work breaks at regular intervals.
One useful tool to help you do this is the ‘Workpace’ programme.
The Health & Safety Adviser can help you and evaluate your workspace.
Emergencies and University Emergency Services
TU Delft has a University Emergency Services organisation. The members of the
University Emergency Services organisation are known to the staff. They perform first aid and act in the event of an emergency Any time you are injured,
always seek treatment. Always report any accidents or near-accidents to University Emergency Services.
In the event of fire, a work-related accident or a dangerous situation, follow
these rules:
• A ‘slow whoop’ siren over the public address system indicates that an alarm
has been sounded.
• Follow the instructions immediately.
• Get yourself to safety and warn others.
• In the event of fire, activate a fire alarm.
• In the event of an emergency, dial the emergency number (112) on a land
line and answer the questions.
• Follow the instructions of University Emergency Services personnel.

Academic Counsellors
The Student Service Desk staff and the academic counsellors are there to help
you find answers to many questions. This may vary from providing standard
information about the degree programme to arranging help with private matters
that may affect your studies.
Studying obviously does not always come easily. For example:
• You may want to study, but can’t get started; you can’t concentrate.
• After your initial enthusiasm, you may start to lose interest in your
programme.
• You are overly concerned with the enormous (in your perception) conse
quences of failing to do well in your programme.
• You suffer from dyslexia, RSI or some other condition.
• You are homesick.
• You need some kind of help concerning a quite simple question.
The Academic Counsellor is the first person to consult about such study-related
questions. In some cases, students have personal problems that they would like
to discuss, particularly if the problems are affecting their studies. If your problems seem very serious, the Academic Counsellor can refer you to other professionals, including the student psychologist. Finally, the Academic Counsellor can
31

help you find solutions that can minimise any delays in your studies.
The Academic Counsellors at the Faculty of EEMCS are:

Mrs. G. Rijnbeek, MSc;

Teaching Formats and Attendance
Study units can have the following formats:
• Lecture
A lecture held by a professor or other staff member for a (large) group of
students
• Instruction
Working in small groups, students complete exercises and solve problems by

applying the course material. It is essential for students to participate actively
and prepare by studying the course material.
Tutorials
A staff member discusses a number of typical exercises. Each student works
individually and tries to complete the exercises in advance.
Guided self-study
Students work independently on a subject, without lectures, instruction or
tutorials. A staff member is available for guidance.
Project
Students work either in groups or individually on a scientific or technical
problem. The objective is to apply their knowledge to solving a complex
problem within a restricted time.
Problem-oriented education
Students work in a group on a complex problem without the necessary prior
knowledge. It may be necessary to collect information from several
disciplines. The students acquire new knowledge during the learning process.
Laboratory work
Students perform experimental work in a laboratory guided by an assistant.
Research
Students perform experimental or theoretical work on a new subject within
one of the research groups.
Attendance
During teaching periods, students are expected to attend the lectures and
tutorials. Attendance at the laboratory practicals is mandatory. Given the
intensity of the MSc programme, we strongly advise against taking a leave of
absence during these teaching periods, as such absences can result in
missing essential lectures. The faculty is not responsible for delays in study
progress resulting from such actions, and they will not take remedial action.

Assessment and ECTS (European Credit Transfer System)
Assessment
Marks for written examinations will be posted as soon as possible, but always
within twenty working days after the examination. The results are posted on
your personal Blackboard page. If you are a registered member, you can obtain
an overview of all your marks to date on Blackboard. In case of doubt, please
consult the Service Desk. Marks for individual study units are valid for ten years.
Please note, however, that the completion of some course components (e.g.
quizzes, tests, interim examinations, homework, exercises) may remain valid for
only a very limited time!
34
2
ECTS
The European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System is a student-centred
system based on the student workload required to achieve the objectives of a
programme. These objectives are preferably specified in terms of learning outcomes and competences to be acquired. The key features of EC are as follows:
The workload for a full-time student is 60 credits for one academic year. The
student workload for a full-time degree programme in the Netherlands amounts
to 1680 hours per year; one credit therefore represents 28 working hours.
The student workload in EC includes time spent in lectures, seminars, on selfstudy, examination preparation, examinations and other related activities.
Credits in EC are allocated to all study units within a study programme (e.g.
courses, internships, thesis work); they reflect the quantity of work each component requires in relation to the total quantity of work necessary to complete a
full year of study within a given programme.
Credits in EC can be obtained only after the required work has been completed
and the achieved learning outcomes have been assessed.
Marking scale and marks
Student performance is expressed in terms of ECTS marks. The ECTS marking
scale ranks students on a statistical basis (see also Table). The Dutch marking
system ranges from 1 (nil) to 10 (excellent). Marks of 6 or higher are considered
‘passing’, while marks of 5,5 or lower are considered ‘failing’. In the case of practical work, marks are sometimes replaced by verbal descriptions.

Right of review and appeal
After the examination results have been posted, you will have at least 20 working days in which to review your work. You are permitted to make a copy of it.
During this period, you may also make an appointment with the lecturer to discuss the work. In many cases, the lecturer will distribute answer sheets or post
them on Blackboard. In some cases, classes are organised to discuss the examination. If you wish to appeal a given mark after discussing it with your lecturer,
35

you must do so within ten working days following receipt of the result.
Written appeals should be submitted to the following address:

2.1.11
Programme Evaluation
The Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science aims
to improve the courses it offers. We therefore ask your opinion on the programme in two ways. First, the student associations and the faculty organise
‘lecture response meetings’ with groups of students to discuss courses of the
current semester. In some cases, these meetings also include the instructors
who are involved, as well as the appropriate Director of Studys. The results are
used to improve the quality of the courses. Second, the faculty asks students to
complete questionnaires. These questionnaires contain standard questions, and
the results are published as statistics. We urge you to participate in these evaluation activities, as the results play an important role in the improvement of our
programmes.
2.1.12
EEMCS Graduation Policy [MSc]
The MSc graduation policy has been made under the authority of the Board of
Examiners in order to harmonize the different graduation practices at the 5
EEMCS MSc programmes. This policy documents the definitions, objectives, procedures, starting requirements and the assessment criteria of a Master thesis. It
is meant for different users:
• for the student and supervisor: to get an answer on the what, when and how
questions
• for the members of the graduation committee: to know what criteria are to
be used to grade the thesis
• for the members of Board of Examiners: to monitor thesis grades and
procedures, in order to guarantee that final qualifications are met in a reliable
and valid way.

Formal Procedures
The master thesis project is the final part of the EEMCS master’s degree programmes and aims to show that the student has acquired the academic competences for the degree of Master of Science.
The master thesis project comprises 40 - 45 ECTS and should take a maximum
of nine months of work. In the programme Microelectronics explicit prototyping
and field testing the period may be longer and is the project extended to 60
ECTS, i.e. a year.
The student can only start with his master thesis project when he/she has an
approved ISP and has finished all of the compulsory courses of the master programme. Only 12 EC of elective courses may still be open. To show this, the student should hand in a TEP to the MSc Coordinator before starting the master
39
2
thesis assignment.
The master thesis project consists of a research / design assignment which is
assessed on basis of a written report, an oral presentation and defense, by a
graduation committee.
The proposal for the graduation committee should be submitted by the thesis
advisor for approval to the Board of Examiners, three months before the thesis
defense.
The graduation committee is installed by the Board of Examiners, and is nominated by the responsible full professor in whose area the graduation will take
place, at least three months before the graduation date.
The graduation committee comprises of at least three members:
1) a chair (full professor or associate professor of the faculty),
2) a full professor or associate / assistant professor of the faculty,
3) a full professor or associate / assistant professor.
One of these core members is from another domain than the chosen specialisation and is allied to a university as a full professor or associate / assistant professor. Furthermore the graduation committee may comprise researchers, PhD’s
and internal or external experts. Only the core members of the graduation committee, installed by the Board of Examiners, determine the grade of the thesis.
(See also R&G art. 27)
Students can present and defend their thesis work only after they have finished
all courses as stated in their approved ISP.
The defense consists of a public session including a presentation by the student
and a session including an examination of the student by the graduation committee, after which the graduation committee decides on the grade.
Twenty working days before the defense (See R&G art. 12.1), the student
applies for the final examination by the Board of Examiners by submitting the
Application Form Final Presentation, Final Examination at the service desk, and
uploading a pdf of the thesis report for the electronic TU Delft repository.
The Board of Examiners assesses whether the student has completed all parts of
his master programme and may enter the final graduation ceremony.
At the graduation ceremony the student receives the thesis diplom and has to
sign it.
Getting Started
Ultimately three months before starting the actual thesis work, the student
should have decided upon the chosen specialisation. The student shows his ISP
and TEP to the Master coordinator. After consultation with the MSc coordinator,
a thesis advisor may be chosen and after consultation with the thesis advisor, a
40
2
thesis topic will be selected. In addition, a daily supervisor (tutor) or an advisor
from the company may be assigned. The thesis topic should comply with the
research area of the thesis advisor.
The master thesis project may be done within a research programme of the university, or within another suitable context, e.g. a research institute or enterprise.
Companies should be aware that the thesis project may require some freedom
for academic work which may not directly contribute to the company’s own business process.
The thesis should have sufficient academic depth. The project, being either a
research or design project should be performed following a systematic approach,
and the assignment should cover all phases of a research/design project including an explicit modelling/implementation/building phase, and a validation/evaluation of the results.
Within the first four weeks after the start of the project, the student should
write a short proposal with objectives and a planning of deliverables and milestones (appendix 2). The thesis advisor assesses the proposal on feasibility and
academic depth, and may suggest modifications.
The student should indicate in advance whether he is available fulltime. If not,
he has to make provisions with the research group or company to do the assignment in parttime.
Guidance
The student should carry out the project autonomously under guidance of a thesis advisor. Even in case of a complex project carried out by a team of students,
each student carries out his own thesis project.
The student and the thesis advisor (and the daily supervisor) meet on a twoweekly or three-weekly basis to discuss the progress. The student should provide an agenda and a written progress report for the meetings describing the
progress and the main discussion items. In between the meetings the student
can ask the daily supervisor for technical assistance.
For the specified milestones, the student submits a progress report (a preliminary chapter of the thesis report) and describes (or demonstrates) the intermediate results and findings. The supervisors will give feedback on the results and
will indicate whether the project is still on track. In all cases, the student is
assumed to take initiative and to guard the progress of the project.
The student should participate in the colloquia of the specialisation. Halfway the
project, the student should give a midterm presentation on the project e.g. at
such a colloquium, in presence of his advisors.
During the project, and in particular near the end, the student should start writing the thesis report and should hand in chapters for reviewing to the thesis
advisor and daily supervisor. The thesis advisor should give feedback in a reasonable time (within two weeks).
41
2
Six weeks before the planned defense, the student should hand in a final version
of the thesis report for approval (“green light”) by the thesis advisor.
Four weeks before the planned defense, the thesis advisor gives approval
(“green light”) to the student.
Thesis Report
The thesis report documents the results of the thesis project. It contains an
account of the work, the followed procedure, intermediate milestones and the
decisions taken.
The thesis report is written in English.
The thesis report has a title page which contains the title of the thesis, the date
of the thesis defense, the name and student number, the chosen specialisation,
the master programme, the faculty EEMCS, and TU Delft.
The thesis report contains a preface that explains the topic of the thesis, the
context (institute or company), the main results in a few lines and the names of
the members of the graduation committee. The preface may end with a few
acknowledgements, and completed with name and date.
The thesis report contains an introduction chapter that introduces the main
research themes and gives an overview of the report.
The thesis report contains a chapter with prior art that describes previous work
and scientific publications relevant for the topic. This chapter reformulates the
research questions in a form that complies with the state of the art in the field.
The thesis report contains several chapters that describe the performed work.
The thesis report concludes with a concluding chapter with a discussion of the
results, and suggestions for future research.
The thesis report may contain a scientific paper about the work, often written
together with the thesis advisor, added as an appendix.
The thesis report will be made public after the assessment by the graduation
committee, unless the organization in which the thesis project has taken place
considers that its publication would harm its interests (e.g. patents, knowledge,
market figures). The organization or the thesis advisor can submit a request
concerning confidentiality for some parts to the Board of Examiners. The members of the graduation committee, however, should have access to the full
report.
Based on comments and suggestions by the graduation committee, the student
may be requested to make additional changes to the thesis report after the
defense. The grade will only be submitted to the administration after approval of
the final thesis report by the thesis advisor.
Defense
After approval of the thesis report (“green light”), a date is set. The student will
make a reservation for a room/lecture hall.
42
2
Two weeks before the defense the student sends an announcement for the thesis defense to the committee members, to the staff of the specialisation, and if
desired to his family and friends, with the title of the thesis, the place of the
defense, the date and time, the committee, and the abstract of his project (250
words).
The student will supply a digital or printed copy of the final thesis report to the
members of the Graduation Committee, at least two weeks before the date of
the thesis defense. Exceptions can be made upon agreement with the thesis
advisor.
The defense should be clearly announced. Prior to the session, the student
checks the room and the equipment (portable, beamer). After the session the
student takes care that the room is brought back in order.
The public session starts with a short introduction by the chair of the graduation
committee, introducing the candidate, the topic of the project, the members of
the graduation committee and the examination procedure.
The student gives a 30-40 minutes presentation on the project. This should
cover all aspects and phases of the project, starting with a clear problem formulation and ending with conclusions. The presentation should be on a level that
addresses the colleague students, i.e. it is not intended as a layman’s presentation. After the presentation there 10 minutes for some questions from the audience.
After the presentation and discussion, the thesis committee examines the candidate about the thesis. This will take a maximum of one hour and will give each
committee member the opportunity to discuss the work in detail with the candidate.
After the examination, the committee withdraws to make up the grade.
Assessment
The graduation committee assesses the thesis and the defense on the following
criteria:
• Quality of work (novelty, magnitude, grasp, methodology, publishable)
• Personal performance (autonomy, planning, creativity, attitude)
• Quality of thesis report (clarity, organization, argumentation)
• Oral presentation and defense (clarity, focus and relevance, discussion)
These criteria are published in the study guide and should be known to the student beforehand. See appendix 6 ‘Thesis evaluation form’.
The voting members of the graduation committee determine the final grade.
The grade should reflect a weighted average of the four scores above, but need
not to be an exact arithmetical mean. The final mark starts from 5 up to and 10.
Marks ending in .5 may also be used.
If the student shows excellence (i.e., is candidate for a grade 10) the thesis
43
2
advisor should consult the chairman of the Board of Examiners, a few weeks in
advance of the defense, who may advice to add an extra member to the graduation committee.
The motivation for the grade at each of the four criteria as listed above is summarized on a form (see appendix 6) and signed by the chairman of the graduation committee. The candidate is given a short account of the assessment,
either in private or in front of the audience.
Disputes
In case of disputes between the student and the daily supervisor or/and the
thesis advisor, the student may consult the MSc coordinator. If this does not lead
to a solution, disputes can be brought before the Board of Examiners.
The student can appeal against decisions of, and the treatment by the Graduation Committee, at the TUD’s Examinations Appeals Board, on the basis of article
7.60 of the WHW. However, there can be no discussion on the grade.
On the Blackboard site EEMCS Teachers checklists are published for thesis advisor, graduation committee and Board of Examiners, as well as questionnaires for
thesis advisors to evaluate the supervision.

2.1.27
Plagiarism and Cheating
From time to time, the media contain reports about scientists or scholars who
are suspected of plagiarism (i.e. the outright copying of someone else’s work).
Although some of these cases are false alarms, others involve a true cause for
suspicion. In most cases, a discussion ensues about the difference between
fraud and the creative assimilation of someone else’s ideas. How familiar are
YOU with what is acceptable in the academic world?
50
2
Cheating
We assume that you are well beyond the stage of stealing a furtive glance at
your neighbour’s work during an examination or succumbing to the temptation
to cheat using a mobile telephone or palmtop. After all, you are in a university
environment and you are being trained to be an independent thinker – an individual with considerable analytical powers, a good debater and one who is capable of developing creative ideas. None of these attributes can be acquired by
reproducing someone else’s work – but you know that already.
Citation, paraphrase – or fraud?
Far more difficult is the task of drawing the line between a ‘simple’ citation and
plagiarism. For example, is it permissible to quote parts of a published article in
a paper you are writing? Yes, it is, provided the texts that are cited are not too
long, the citation appears between quotation marks and the source is acknowledged. It makes no difference whether you have found the article in a library or
on the Internet: a citation is a citation. This should be clear enough. Unfortunately, it is impossible to be so clear about another activity that is quite common
in universities: paraphrasing. Paraphrasing involves describing the substance of
a text written by a third party in your own words. As in the case of citations,
paraphrasing is usually used to back up your own argument or ideas, and not to
present someone else’s views as your own. This is a grey area, which can lead
many people into problems. Part of your university education consists of acquiring the academic norms and values that apply in this type of situation: learning
to think about the theories and propositions adopted from others, seeing to it
that your own reasoning is apparent in your work and, in case of doubt, talking
the matter over with your lecturer or fellow students.
Free riding
Another unacceptable practice is riding along on the efforts of others. If you are
part of a group that is carrying out an assignment, you are expected to pull your
own weight. That is understood. Nonetheless, group work, which we consider
extremely important, occasionally makes it possible to slip into the role of a ’free
rider’. If you have a free rider on your project, speak to him or her about it. If
necessary, ask your lecturer for advice.
You have crossed the line: what next?
The faculty produces very well-trained engineers who will be in charge of complex projects that demand all of their academic skills. The faculty is therefore
watchful of the quality of the studies that it offers and takes action against every
form of fraud. In all cases, lecturers report fraud to the Board of Examiners. Students who are suspected of copying, cheating or free riding run the risk of being
barred by the Board of Examiners from all tests and examinations held by Delft
51
2
University of Technology for up to one year. This can also have wide-ranging
consequences for both the duration and the financial aspects of your course of
study.
It is therefore important for you to ensure that you are above all suspicion.
Switch off and put away your mobile telephone and/or palmtop during tests and
examinations. Any study materials you may have with you must also be stored
out of sight. Do not tempt others into copying your work, either during tests or
any other form of examination. If you are experiencing difficulties or a critical
shortage of time in preparing for an examination or any other assignment, talk
to your lecturer or academic counsellor about it. Always remember that receiving an unsatisfactory mark or postponing completion of your programme is far
less serious than committing fraud.
2.1.28
Cultural Aspects
ACADEMIC ATTITUDE
In the Netherlands, the objective of higher education is to produce graduates
who are critical, independent thinkers. This is reflected in both the curriculum
and the way in which knowledge and skills are transferred to students. To promote an autonomous attitude, the academic curriculum focuses largely on analysing and problem solving in groups, and on the preparation of papers. Relatively little attention is paid to simply reproducing information. Students are
expected to know where to find the information they need and to make critical
use of it. The university is no longer the ivory tower it once was. There are now
many links between university research and society. Scientific research is
becoming increasingly focused on the needs of society. This is also reflected in
the academic programmes; students carry out practical work assignments as
part of their studies, and they receive practical, on-the-job training at companies. Many university programmes aim to develop creative thinking and problem-solving skills in students from the start, and this is especially true of engineering programmes.
In general, a Master’s degree programme requires students to be independent
learners and use their own initiative. You will do much of your learning alone.
Lectures are alternated with group work; the average group meets for two hours
each week. Lecturers assemble material into readers, which form the backbone
of most courses. In addition, however, you will need to find material in libraries.
You are expected to use your own initiative if any problems arise, whether they
involve the organisation of the programme, the subject matter or a specific lecturer. You should talk with someone about the problem; you can always turn to
your coordinator or the academic counsellors, who will listen and do their best
to help.

Additional information for all master students
Honours Track
It is possible to follow an ‘honours track’ in all MSc degree programmes of Delft
University of Technology (TUD). Motivated students who have finished their
Bachelor’s degree programme with a weighted averaged mark of 7.5 or higher,
and students who have excelled during the first semester (no fails and marks of
7.5 or higher) are eligible to follow an honours track in their Master programme.
An honours track is a special individual programme in addition to the regular
MSc degree programme of 840 hours (30 EC) and is related to the discipline of
the Master and/or to the role of technology in society. The extra programme has
to be completed during the course of the student’s MSc degree programme. The
content of the honours track programme should be thematically consistent and
must be approved by the Director of Studies. Students who have successfully
completed their honours track receive a special certificate from the university.
An honours track programme may offer more depth, such as a preparation for a
PhD programme, or a wider orientation, for example in the field of sustainability
or another science subject. All honours track students of TUD follow a specially
developed course of 6 EC. This course is interdisciplinary and focuses on academic competences such as communication skills, philosophy of science, metho
dology and ethics. Students who fulfil (or will fulfil) the above-mentioned
requirements and are interested in an honours track may apply by means of a
short essay in English. This essay should contain the student’s motivation and a
proposal for the honours track programme.
For further information contact the MSc programme coordinators.
3.2
The individual study plan
Before the start of the fourth quarter of the first year, students should choose a
thesis supervisor and, in consultation with this supervisor, prepare a study plan,
which must be approved by the Board of Examiners.
The procedure is as follows:
• At the start of the Master’s programme, each student has an intake interview
with the MSc coordinator and should choose a thesis supervisor as soon as
possible. Students may also contact one of the academic counsellors for
assistance and advice in this matter.
• Students design their study plans in consultation with their thesis supervisors.
56
3
• The MSc coordinator determines whether the study plan conforms to the
rules of the Master’s programme.
• The individual study plan is submitted to the Board of Examiners for
approval.
One of the main tasks of the MSc coordinator is to supervise the procedures and
quality of the Master’s programme. The MSc coordinator can address general
questions on the overall procedures of the programme and actively monitors the
MSc students through intake and progress interviews. The MSc coordinator also
informs students who hold a BSc degree about the possibilities of participating
in the Master’s .
3.3
Graduation Requirements
The individual study programme needs the approval of the Board of Examiners.
The Master’s degree will be awarded if you have earned for all units of the individual study programme a mark that is greater than or equal to 6.
3.4
Teaching degree (TULO)
A special programme is offered to students who wish to obtain a degree in
teaching mathematics or computer science.
This programme consists of two parts: a basic component (30 credits) and an
advanced component (30 credits).
The courses required for the basic part of this programme can be completed
either as a minor within the BSc programme or for the non-mathematic electives
or non-CS electives within the MSc programme in Applied Mathematics or Computer Science,
or as a postgraduate programme. The advanced component is open only to students who have completed the basic part. Students who have completed the
basic component within the BSc programme can use the advanced component
for the non-mathematics electives within the MSc programme in Applied Mathematics/ Computer Science or as a postgraduate programme.
Because the programme focuses on teaching at Dutch educational institutions, it
requires an excellent command of the Dutch language (both spoken and written). The working language for the teaching programme is Dutch.

Technology in sustainable development
(TiDO)
Graduates with a MSc degree from the Delft University of Technology should be
prepared to work as designers, researchers or managers. In the next decade,
they will be confronted with technological challenges related to sustainable
development. These engineers should therefore be acquainted with the interplay
between sustainable development and the applications of science and technology. For this purpose, a special programme has been initiated at the Delft University of Technology: Technology in Sustainable Development (Technologie in
Duurzame Ontwikkeling or TiDO). This programme prepares interested students
more thoroughly in the area of sustainable development, environment and tech
nology.
The programme consists of the colloquium including a one week boat trip (4 EC)
and (at least 5 EC) electives from the Cluster A (Design, Analysis and Tools) and
(at least 5 EC) electives from Cluster B (Organization and Society). The total
number of credit points of TiDO should be at least 15 EC.
A full list of TiDO-related courses and additional information is available on the
following website: http://www.tbm.tudelft.nl/tdo.
Students may select courses from this list to fulfill the non-mathematics elective
requirements of the MSc programme in Applied Mathematics. In addition to the
above-mentioned coursework, students following the TiDO programme are
expected to complete a Master’s thesis project related to sustainable development. Students that have successfully completed this programme will receive a
special endorsement on their MSc certificate.

Master Annotation Entrepreneurship
Introduction
Are you a master’s student with ambitions to start up your own business? Are
you on the threshold of doing so, do you want to keep your options open or do
you just want to learn more about entrepreneurship? The annotation entrepreneurship on master’s level is developed to help you gain more knowledge in and
prepare yourself for entrepreneurship. The annotation is an entrepreneurial
accent of your regular Master program.
Program
MSc students who are interested in entrepreneurship can opt for the new master
annotation ‘entrepreneurship’, which trains students to be entrepreneurs,
through a combination of modules and a graduation project that partly focuses
on marketing a service or product. Entrepreneurship can mean starting up your
own business, but can also stand for entrepreneurship in a more general
context, such as innovation at existing companies, take-overs, spin-outs, etc.
Students, who complete the annotation successfully, receive an annotation with
their degree.
The annotation ‘entrepreneurship’ consists of three components:
1 A combination of entrepreneurship modules (12 ECTS). The coordinator of
DCE, the coordinator of your Faculty, and the student put together an individual
combination of modules in which aspects as e.g. business administration and
leadership are dealt with.
2 Attending the course Entrepreneurship Annotation Week (WM4001TU, 2 ECTS)
3 A graduation project focusing on marketing a technical service or product
(WM4003TU, 8 ECTS). The project can be carried out with the intention of starting up your own business, but also if you do not plan to do so immediately, you
can add an entrepreneurial touch to your graduation. In both cases, a member
who supervises the student specifically with regard to entrepreneurship is added
to the thesis committee.
At most 12 EC of the course work of this programme may be included in the
individual study programme in the non-mathematics electives part As a consequence, at least 10 EC have to be taken on top of the regular 120 EC of the
master programme.
For more information on the annotation ‘entrepreneurship’ check out our website www.dce.tudelft.nl or the MSc-coordinator: Dr.ir. Martine A. van Veelen
M.A.vanveelen@tudelft.nl

NB The annotation ‘entrepreneurship’ is developed by the Delft Centre for Entrepreneurship. The TU Delft Centre for Entrepreneurship (DCE) stimulates students and researchers from the TU Delft to become entrepreneurs or engage in
entrepreneurial activity.

TUD Design Challenge
What is the TUD Design Challenge?
The TUD Design Challenge offers second year Master’s students a unique opportunity to demonstrate how innovative and creative they are. Inspired by Stanford University’s ‘design school’ formula, student teams combine their entrepreneurial, engineering and design skills to develop practical solutions for the real
world innovation problems of our business partners. This is your chance to solve
challenging innovation problems in a multidisciplinary team of the most motivated and talented students from various faculties. You will receive on the job
training from a senior coach, plus weekly feedback and support from our ‘client’
partners.
For Whom?
The TUD Design Challenge is a project course developed for second year Master’s students just before their thesis work (WM1203TU, 12 ECTS). It is open to
students from all faculties across Delft University of Technology. We are looking
for students with a background in science, engineering, design or management.
Project teams of four to five students start every September and February. The
projects last five months, requiring roughly a halftime commitment.
There is a strong drive towards innovation. Project assignments encompass:
opportunity identification and analysis, design iterations, testing and delivering
the final solution (perhaps as a prototype) with a business plan. The solution
can take many forms, such as a tangible product, software tool or service concept.
Assignments
The assignments vary every half year. We have drawn interest from large businesses (like Océ Technologies, Siemens, Rabobank, Ahold, Philips, KLM, Microsoft, Sun Microsystems, TNO ICT, Randstad, Dura Vermeer, Imtech and Ecofys)
and from smaller companies pursuing interesting innovations. For more information please check out www.DesignChallenge.TUDelft.nl for current projects and/
or the digital study guide.
This project, WM1203TU (12 EC), may be included in the individual study programme in the non-mathematics electives part.

Foreign Exchange
You may consider doing a part of your individual study programme abroad as a
foreign exchange student. The contact person within your research group has
many international contacts. If going abroad requires a change in your individual
study programme, you have to consult your MSc programme coordinator. The
faculty’s Internationalisation and Practical Training department helps students
who are interested in studying abroad.

Composition of the Master’s degree programme 2009
The Master’s Degree Programme has only one track: Applied Mathematics.
Within this track there are two specialisation options:
1 Computational Science and Engineering
2 2. Probability, Risk and Statistics
The programme has a duration of two years (120 EC) and starts each year in
September. It is also possible to start the Master’s degree programme in the
second semester. In that case, however, students might experience some problems due to dependencies between some of the course taught in the first
semester and some of the courses in the second semester. Nevertheless, the
courses in the master programme will be scheduled in such a way that it is possible to compose an individual study programme consisting of a limited choice of
courses in which the successor relationships are almost not violated. Students
should realise, however, that starting in the second semester could take some
extra effort.
Each year the dean issues the list of the orientation courses and of the courses
for each specialisation option.
The lists with these courses are published in the digital study guide.
Students must submit their individual study programme for approval by the
Board of Examiners before the start of the fourth quarter of the first year. The
study plan should be drawn up in consultation with the thesis supervisor.
An individual study programme consists of the following parts:
1 A common core worth 21 EC
2 Orientation courses worth 12 EC
3 A compulsory internship worth 12 EC or 18 EC
4 Courses chosen from one of the lists of the specialisation options worth at
least 18 EC
5 An elective part that the student must spend on units of study that are not
part of the Applied Mathematics curriculum, such as a work experience,
international exchange programme, courses offered by other disciplines, a
minor, courses to fulfil the requirements for the TULO, language courses
64
4
(maximal 6 EC), the Christiaan Huygens study trip (3EC), etc. The elective
part and the internship must together be worth at least 18 EC.
6 A thesis project worth 42 EC (WI5005). The thesis project is the last study
unit of the programme and serves to prove that the student acquired the
academic competencies of a Master of Science. The project involves a
research or design task with sufficient academic level. The project may be
executed within a research programme at TU Delft, or in a suitable research
institute or company. The project must be executed with a systematic
approach and should include all phases of a research or design project:
analysis, modelling, implementation/construction and validation/evaluation.
The student executes the thesis project independently, with guidance of one
or more thesis supervisors, one of them from the scientific staff of TU Delft.

an approved Individual Study Programme (ISP).
Only students that are admitted to the Master Programme Applied Mathematics
can submit their ISP to the Board of Examiners with a request for approval.
Exceptions: the internship is not compulsory for students that follow a bridging
programme to compensate deficiencies, follow the Teacher degree programme,
or follow the TIDO programme or perform their thesis project at an institute that
is not Delft University of Technology. In the last case mentioned an internship
evaluation form must be submitted to the internship co-ordinator before the
65

defence and the internship co-ordinator must be a member of the thesis defence
committee.
Students with legitimate reasons can submit a request at the Board of Examiners to be released from the compulsory internship.

that the student acquired the academic competencies of a Master of Science.
The project involves a research or design task with sufficient academic level.
The project may be executed within a research programme at TU Delft, or in a
suitable research institute or company. The project must be executed with a
systematic approach and should include all phases of a research or design project: analysis, modelling, implementation/construction and validation/evaluation.
The student executes the thesis project independently, with guidance of one or
more thesis supervisors, one of them from the scientific staff of TU Delft.
The TU Delft Applied Mathematics Master’s degree will be awarded if a student
has all earned for all study units of his or her individual study programme of the
COSSE Master’s programme at TU Delft in the first year a mark that is greater
than or equal to 6, has passed all study units of the second year of the COSSE
Master’s programme at one of the other COSSE universities;
or if a student has passed all study units of the first year of the COSSE Master’s
programme at one of the other COSSE universities and has all earned for all
study units of his or her individual study programme at TU Delft in the second
year of his or her COSSE Master’s programme a mark that is greater than or

Composition of the Master’s degree programme in Computer
Engineering
September.
It is also possible to start the Master’s degree programme in the second semester. In that case, however, students might experience some problems due to
dependencies between some of the courses taught in the first semester and
some of the courses in the second semester. Nevertheless, the courses in the
Master’s programme will be scheduled in such a way that it is possible to compose an individual study programme consisting of a limited choice of courses in
which the successor relations are almost not violated. Students should realise,
however, that starting in the second semester could take some extra effort.
Each year the dean issues lists of study units that belong to the specialisation
courses, a list of study units that belong to the interfaculty profiles and a list of
units that belong to the homologation courses. These lists are published in the
digital study guide and in the Master’s Study Guide.
Board of Examiners before the start of the fourth quarter of the first year.
An individual study programme consists of the following parts:
1 Compulsory courses worth 33 EC.
2 Specialisation courses worth at least 27 EC. At least 17 EC need to be taken
from the list of specialisation courses. The remaining 10 EC for specialisation
courses can be chosen from other master programmes offered by EEMCS.
3 A free elective space worth 15 EC that the student must spend on study units
that are preferably from another curriculum, such as work experience, an
international exchange programme, courses offered by other departments.
Alternatively, this space may be used for homologation courses.
4 A thesis project worth 45 EC.

If a bridging programme has a study load greater than 30 EC, the courses
exceeding 30 EC may be included in the master’s programme as homologation,
with a maximum of 10 EC.
Students will gain access to the Master’s degree programme in Computer science when they have earned a mark greater or equal or higher than 6 for the
courses of the bridging programme.
Students who have started a bridging programme for the master’s programme
Computer Science or Media and Knowledge Engineering prior to 2011 will, upon
completion, gain access to the tracks Information Architecture and Software
Technology or Bioinformatics and Media and Knowledge Engineering, respectively.
isAll bridging programmes are valid for two years. If it hasa bridging programme
has not been completed within two years, students have to transfer to the a
new bridging programme, with the understanding that credits earned for units
of study that are identical in the old and the new bridging programme remain
valid.

If a new study programme is implemented for a certain year of study, then
interim examinations for the study units of the old programme that are discontinued will be offered twice in the academic year following the year in which the
units were taught for the last time.
6.4.2
Transition rules
• Students with an approved ISP may complete this programme, in so far as
courses are available. In the case where courses are no longer available, they
may be substituted by existing courses according to the table in article 9.
However, the total number of EC of the ISP must be at least 120 EC.
• If it is no longer possible to complete a study programme, students must
submit a new individual study programme according to the study programme
described in the current implementation procedures.

7.1.1
Composition of the Master’s degree programme in Electrical
Engineering
The Master’s degree programme has three tracks and one additional specialisation. The tracks are:
• Telecommunications
• Microelectronics
• Electrical Power Engineering
The additional specialisation is in Signals and Systems.
The programme has a duration of two years (at least 120 EC) and starts each
year in September.
It is also possible to start the Master’s degree programme in the second semester. In that case, however, students might experience some problems due to
dependencies between some of the courses taught in the first semester and
Master’s programme will be scheduled in such a way that it is possible to compose an individual study programme consisting of a limited choice of courses in
which the successor relations are almost not violated. Students should realise,
however, that starting in the second semester could take some extra effort.
Each year the Dean issues lists of study units that belong to the specialisation
courses for a master programme and their respective tracks or specialisations, a
list of study units that belong to the interfaculty profiles and a list of units that
belong to the homologation courses. These lists are published in the digital
study guide. and in the Master’s Study Guide.
Students must submit their individual study programme for approval by the professor responsible for their thesis project and Board of Examiners before the
start of the fourth quarter of the first year.

7.1.2
Composition of the Master’s degree programme in Telecommunications
An individual study programme of the track Telecommunications consists of the
following parts:
2 Courses chosen from the list of specialisation courses for the track worth at
least 37 EC,
3 A free elective space worth at least 18 EC that the student must spend on
study units like a research task, an international exchange programme, an
internship, an interfaculty specialisation profile (art. 4) or courses offered by
other universities or by the Delft University of Technology; in the latter case,
preferably courses from another department, or social studies courses.
Alternatively, this space may be used for homologation courses. These are
courses that students can take to acquire knowledge missing from their
previous bachelor programme.
4 A thesis project worth 45 EC. Approval of the ISP by the thesis professor and
the Board of Examiners is required before the thesis work starts.

What is the 3TU.Federation?
The three leading universities of technology in the Netherlands - Delft University
of Technology, Eindhoven University of Technology and the University of Twente
- have joined forces in the 3TU.Federation (www.3tu.nl).
This federation maximises innovation by combining and concentrating the
strengths of all three universities in research, education and knowledge transfer.
Within the framework of this cooperation, five joint MSc programmes have been
developed that address key issues in engineering and society. These five MSc
programmes are:
• Construction Management and Engineering
• Embedded Systems
• Science Education and Communication
• Sustainable Energy Technology
• Systems and Control
The main advantages for students
The new 3TU MSc programmes have been developed as exclusive programmes
of outstanding academic quality that enable you to study at three of the top universities in the Netherlands.
These programmes focus on areas of innovation developed with state-of-the-art
engineering expertise.
You will have the opportunity to acquire qualifications and competences that are
in high demand. When you graduate you will have obtained an outstanding
qualification profile.
The 3TU masters combine excellent subject-based competences, research skills,
the capacity for independent analysis and synthesis and an advanced capability
to apply knowledge in practice.
The core programmes of the 3TU masters are largely identical and you can take
classes at any of the three locations.
The admission procedures, teaching and examination regulations and academic
calendars at all three universities have been carefully matched.
You benefit from the special strengths of the three universities by choosing a
specialisation at any of the three locations. You are registered at the location of
your choice, but you are automatically co-registered at the other two locations
to ensure access to the facilities of all three.
