How to choose your profile cluster
Because the profile clusters cover a very broad range of topics, many students do not possess the background knowledge for all profiles in a cluster. The table below shows which background fits best with the clusters:
Autonomous Systems | Wind & Economics | Solar Systems | Solar & Economics | Waste-CHP & Solar Systems | Data-Driven Energy Systems | Electric Mobility Systems | Electric Mobility & Economics | |
Mechanical/Mechatronics/ Materials Engineering | √ | |||||||
Electrical Engineering/Electronics | √ | √ | √ | √ | √ | |||
Chemical Engineering/Chemistry | √ | |||||||
Aerospace Engineering | √ | |||||||
(Applied) Physics/Astronomy | √ | |||||||
Applied Earth Sciences/ Mining/Petroleum Engineering | √ |
Prepare for other profile clusters
If you would like to choose a profile cluster for which you might NOT have all required knowledge based on your bachelor programme, it is strongly recommended to prepare yourself before the start of the academic year in Delft.
The table below provides an overview of the topics which you are recommended to prepare for each cluster (per different bachelor’s degree background):
Autonomous Systems | Wind & Economics | Solar Systems | Solar & Economics | Waste-CHP & Solar Systems | Data-Driven Energy Systems | Electric Mobility Systems | Electric Mobility & Economics | |
Mechanical/Mechatronics/ Materials Engineering | √ | Electrical Engineering | Electrical Engineering | Electrical Engineering | Chemistry | Chemistry | Electrical Engineering | Electrical Engineering |
Electrical Engineering/Electronics | Mechanics & Dynamics | Mechanics & Dynamics | √ | √ | Chemistry | √ | √ | √ |
