Curriculum

TU/e is currently implementing Bachelor College 2.0, meaning that our bachelor’s programs are undergoing a redesign. Since the pre-master’s programs consist of bachelor’s courses, the curriculum of the pre-master’s programs are subject to change. Therefore, please take into account that the information mentioned on this website might not be representative for the curriculum that will be offered from academic year 2024-2025 onwards. Information about the curriculum from September 2024 onwards will be published as soon as possible.

The pre-master program ABP offers five variants that prepare for the corresponding tracks of the ABP master program:

• Architectural Urban Design and Engineering:
  • AUDE Architecture
  • AUDE Urbanism
• Building Physics and Services
• Structural Engineering and Design
• Urban Systems & Real Estate (also prepares for the track Sustainable Urban Mobility Transitions).

Depending on the track you choose for the follow-up master, your pre-master consists of 5 to 7 courses. An overview of the different variants can be found in the download section.

Please note: As a first-year pre-master's student, you’ll automatically be registered for the courses of the first quarter. For the remaining quartiles you have to register for all courses yourself at osiris.tue.nl

For every course there is a retake possibility. You have to complete the pre-master program within one academic year. In case you do not achieve all 30 ECTS within one year, you will not be admitted to the pre-master for the next 3 years.

Your development at our university starts with the pre-master program, but did you know there’s a lot more you can do to build your own future?

• The Built Environment department has the largest number of study associations at the TU/e. CHEOPS and its sub associations for the different master specializations organize workshops, lectures, excursions and leisure activities.
