Mathematics requirement for students from a Dutch high school
To be able to enter the bachelor program Industrial Engineering at TU/e, you must have a sound understanding of mathematics B. The minimum required level of mathematics of each applicant must be comparable to the Dutch pre-university diploma (VWO) Mathematics B with a more than sufficient grade. If the level of your mathematics course within your high school curriculum is not considered equivalent to Mathematics B on VWO level, but you do perform well in your national mathematics high school curriculum, you are to demonstrate your mathematics proficiency via an entrance exam.
You can do this by:
- Having a pre-university (VWO) degree that includes mathematics B, or
- Providing a certificate for Mathematics B from one of these external institutes:
- Boswell-Bèta in Utrecht (mathematics B).
- De Centrale Commissies Voortentamen (VWO mathematics B)
- Korteweg-de Vries Institute for Mathematics (VWO mathematics B)
- Staatsexamen (VWO mathematics B)
The purpose of the entrance exam is to measure whether your high school education in mathematics is sufficient for entering our bachelor program. The entrance exam is not applicable to students who scored low in mathematics during their high school curriculum but would like to take the exam as a chance to prove themselves. The mathematics entrance exam is also not applicable to students who have not studied mathematics in their final year.
