Admission non-TU/e Bachelors

From TUD or Utwente

If you have completed a Bachelor program at Delft University of Technology or University of Twente, you may also take a Master program at TU/e.

On the Flow Matrix (doorstroommatrix in Dutch) you will see whether you can be admitted directly to a Master program, or whether you first need to follow a number of courses from the BSc Industrial Engineering program. Note that the Flow matrix is not run by our university and can only be used to get an indication.

From another Dutch university

If you have completed a BSc program from another university in the Netherlands than Eindhoven, Delft, or Twente, your potential for admission to the Innovation Management program is assessed on an individual basis.

From BSc university outside the Netherlands

The general requirements for admission to our MSc program for students with a Bachelor degree from a university outside the Netherlands are:

  • A relevant Bachelor's degree (or equivalent), based on a program of sufficient academic level and quality to be able to complete the Innovation Management Master program. Specific requirements per country can be found here.       
  • A Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of at least 75% of the scale maximum.      
  • Sufficient mastery of the English language.

Students with a degree certificate from a BSc WO program who request registration for a pre-Master program the Departmental Admissions Committee shall assess what the level of deficiency is of the student.

All applicants must provide TU/e with a full application package before any decision can be taken on admission to the master program. It is not possible for TU/e to give an indication of eligibility without first receiving a full application package.

For a deficiency that exceeds 30 credits, the students shall not be admitted to a pre-Master program and shall be advised to enrol in the preparatory Bachelor program. For a deficiency with a maximum of 30 credits, the students must register for a regular pre-Master program. For students with previous university training who have a deficiency of 15 credits or fewer, the departmental Admissions Committee determines whether they are directly admissible to the Master program and must remedy the deficiencies within the Master program. (See art. 2 of Appendix 4 of MSc PER 2021-2022 according to the Graduate School).
