Grant information

Erasmus+ Study Scholarships are available to TU Delft students who will study at a partner university within the EU for 2 to 12 months. TU Delft can provide financial support for a maximum of 360 days of a stay abroad per study cycle (BSc/MSc). Exchange students AY 2023-2024 The information on this webpage has been updated for students planning to go abroad for their study programme in 2024-2025. Students who have been, or are currently, on an exchange programme should refer to their Grant Agreement for more specific information about their grant. The information below is only for exchange students going abroad in the next academic year for a study programme. Exchange Students AY 2024-2025 Depending on where your exchange programme takes place, the countries listed in Table A indicates the monthly amount of scholarship you will receive. In addition to this monthly amount, all students will receive an additional travel grant (called No Green Travel) based on the distance from TU Delft to the Host University. Distances are calculated using a distance band between TU Delft Aula as the place of origin, and the venue of the activity for your Erasmus+ mobility (main address of the host institute). Exchange students AY 2025-2026 Students planning to go on an exchange in the academic year of 2025-2026 can find general information about the Erasmus+ Scholarship here. Please be aware changes will occur to the application procedure and financing. TU Delft expects to receive updates from the EU and our national Agency – Nuffic in May 2025. Grant Amount Students will receive a standard monthly grant which will include a Travel Distance Allowance. Check the two tables below to see which grant amounts you may receive. For example: Student going to DTU in Denmark will receive €390 per month + a one-time payment of €309 for their travel allowance. Group Countries Scholarship 1 Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Ireland, Luxembourg, Sweden, Liechtenstein, Norway €390 per month 2 Austria, Belgium, Germany, France, Italy, Greece, Spain, Cyprus, Malta, Portugal, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, North Macedonia, Turkey €330 per month Please note that a calculation will be made on the basis that one month is equivalent to 30 days. This table provides an overview of the travel distance, travel grant (No Green Travel) and green travel grant (Green travel). The ‘No Green travel’ amount (one-time payment) will be paid to all students going on exchange, with the first 70% payment. If you travel sustainably to and from your destination, you will receive a one-time payment of the ‘Green Travel’ amount with the last payment of 30%. Example of calculation: Travel distance to host 150 km, student receives €211,- from the No Green Travel grant with their first payment. Student travels green and will receive the remaining amount of €74,- with their second payment. Table B: Switzerland You cannot apply for an Erasmus+ grant for studies in Switzerland. Instead, the Swiss university may be able to apply for a grant for you via the Swiss European Mobility Programme . Contact your Swiss host university for details. Additional financial support for students For students planning to go abroad, the Erasmus+ Scholarship provides additional ‘Top Ups’ for students who plan to travel ‘Green’ to their host university and to those students needing extra funding for health or financial barriers, who without this funding would not be able to experience an exchange abroad. Green Travel Top up Students who choose sustainable travel methods—such as train, bus, bike, or carpooling with fellow TU Delft students (excluding family)—to and from their host university at the beginning and end of their exchange program can apply for extra funding. If approved, this funding will be added to the Erasmus+ grant and is based on the travel distance in kilometers between TU Delft and the host institution. The additional funding will be paid out once your exchange program is complete. Please remember to save your travel tickets as proof. You can request this top up in Osiris Student. Required documents can be found online . How to apply: Before Mobility 1.

Finding a position

To enroll for the PhD program, there are three possible routes. (1) Apply for a paid position When a larger research project has been granted national or international funding, paid positions often become available for a postdoc or PhD candidate to carry out the research. Whenever we have such a position, you can find it at http://www.vacaturesindelft.nl Vacancies PhD Position - Dynamics of Design Interventions in everyday Heritage (2) Open application If you opt for an open application, then your proposal must fit within the portfolio of one of the research groups. You can come to Delft and work on your project full-time as a contract PhD candidate. The alternative is to keep your current job and/or stay where you live and work on your project part-time as an external PhD candidate. For both options you need to bring your own money. Read more about the application procedure (3) Open application / hot topics Several research programs like to attract candidates for specific topics. These are topics carefully chosen to help develop the research program in a desired direction and for which supervision capacity is available. The current list of topics can be found here . Requirements The Graduate School of Architecture and the Built Environment expects you to meet the following requirements: Degree According to Dutch law and the TU Delft Doctorate Regulations a PhD candidate should be in possession of a Master’s degree. We welcome Masters of Science (M.Sc.) in Architecture, Urbanism, Building Technology, Real Estate, Built Environment, Geomatics or another field that supports the research objectives of our domain. Finances Graduate School A+BE does not offer PhD scholarships. However, it is possible to pursue a PhD with other sources of funding, such as your company or a scholarship. Your own government may offers scholarships or you can try to find one at Grantfinder . To avoid confusion, make the following selection in their database: Purpose: research I have a: master's degree If you plan to attain your PhD at the faculty of A+BE as a "contract PhD candidate" with a scholarship, we expect your scholarship to cover living costs in the Netherlands as well as our tuition fee (€11.000) and bench fee (€10.000). Living costs are estimated at a minimum of € 1.800 per month (or: 48 * € 1.800 = € 86.400 for the entire course of your PhD-trajectory). This means that you will need a scholarship of at least € 107.400. We will ask you for proof you can cover these living expenses and will let you sign an agreement. We will not accept you as a PhD candidate if we think you will struggle financially. Doctoral Grant for Teachers in The Netherlands Teachers in primary, secondary, further professional, higher professional and special education in The Netherlands can receive a grant for a PhD study. The aim is to directly apply the knowledge and research experience acquired for the benefit of educational practice. You can apply for a PhD grant for any research subject. Calls are twice a year with deadlines in the beginning of both March and September. Check NWO for more information in Dutch and English .

Students Amos Yusuf, Mick Dam & Bas Brouwer winners of Mekel Prize 2024

Master students Amos Yusuf, from the ME faculty (Mick Dam, from the EEMCS faculty and graduate Bas Brouwer have won the Mekel Prize 2024 for the best extra scientific activity at TU Delft: the development of an initiative that brings master students into the classroom teaching sciences to the younger generations. The prize was ceremonially awarded by prof Tim van den Hagen on 13 November after the Van Hasselt Lecture at the Prinsenhof, Delft. They received a statue of Professor Jan Mekel and 1.500,- to spend on their project. Insights into climate change are being openly doubted. Funding for important educational efforts and research are being withdrawn. Short clips – so called “reels” – on Youtube and TikTok threaten to simplify complex political and social problems. AI fakes befuddle what is true and what is not. The voices of science that contribute to those discussion with modesty, careful argument and scepticism, are drowned in noise. This poses a threat for universities like TU Delft, who strive to increase student numbers, who benefit from diverse student populations and aim to pass on their knowledge and scientific virtues to the next generation. It is, therefore, alarming that student enrolments to Bachelor and Master Programs at TU Delft have declined in the past year. Students in front of the class The project is aimed to make the sciences more appealing to the next generation. They have identified the problem that students tend miss out on the opportunity of entering a higher education trajectory in the Beta sciences – because they have a wrong picture of such education. In their mind, they depict it as boring and dry. In his pilot lecture at the Stanislas VMBO in Delft, Amos Yusuf has successfully challenged this image. He shared his enthusiasm for the field of robotics and presented himself as a positive role model to the pupils. And in return the excitement of the high school students is palpable in the videos and pictures from the day. The spark of science fills their eyes. Bas Brouwer Mick Dam are the founders of NUVO – the platform that facilitates the engagement of Master Students in high school education in Delft Their efforts offer TU Delft Master Students a valuable learning moment: By sharing insights from their fields with pupils at high school in an educational setting, our students can find identify their own misunderstandings of their subject, learn to speak in front of non-scientific audiences and peak into education as a work field they themselves might not have considered. An extraordinary commitment According to the Mekel jury, the project scored well on all the criteria (risk mitigation, inclusiveness, transparency and societal relevance). However, it was the extraordinary commitment of Amos who was fully immersed during his Master Project and the efforts of Brouwer and Dam that brought together teaching and research which is integral to academic culture that made the project stand out. About the Mekel Prize The Mekel Prize will be awarded to the most socially responsible research project or extra-scientific activity (e.g. founding of an NGO or organization, an initiative or realization of an event or other impactful project) by an employee or group of employees of TU Delft – projects that showcase in an outstanding fashion that they have been committed from the beginning to relevant moral and societal values and have been aware of and tried to mitigate as much as possible in innovative ways the risks involved in their research. The award recognizes such efforts and wants to encourage the responsible development of science and technology at TU Delft in the future.

New catheter technology promises safer and more efficient treatment of blood vessels

Each year, more than 200 million catheters are used worldwide to treat vascular diseases, including heart disease and artery stenosis. When navigating into blood vessels, friction between the catheter and the vessel wall can cause major complications. With a new innovative catheter technology, Mostafa Atalla and colleagues can change the friction from having grip to completely slippery with the flick of a switch. Their design improves the safety and efficiency of endovascular procedures. The findings have been published in IEEE. Catheter with variable friction The prototype of the new catheter features advanced friction control modules to precisely control the friction between the catheter and the vessel wall. The friction is modulated via ultrasonic vibrations, which overpressure the thin fluid layer. This innovative variable friction technology makes it possible to switch between low friction for smooth navigation through the vessel and high friction for optimal stability during the procedure. In a proof-of-concept, Atalla and his team show that the prototype significantly reduces friction, averaging 60% on rigid surfaces and 11% on soft surfaces. Experiments on animal aortic tissue confirm the promising results of this technology and its potential for medical applications. Fully assembled catheters The researchers tested the prototype during friction experiments on different tissue types. They are also investigating how the technology can be applied to other procedures, such as bowel interventions.

A key solution to grid congestion

On behalf of the TU Delft PowerWeb Institute, researchers Kenneth Brunninx and Simon Tindemans are handing over a Position Paper to the Dutch Parliament on 14 November 2024, with a possible solution to the major grid capacity problems that are increasingly cropping up in the Netherlands. The Netherlands is unlikely to meet the 2030 climate targets, and one of the reasons for this is that large industry cannot switch to electricity fast enough, partly because of increasingly frequent problems around grid capacity and grid congestion. In all likelihood, those problems will actually increase this decade before they can decrease, the researchers argue. The solution offered by the TU Delft PowerWeb Institute researchers is the ‘flexible backstop’. With a flexible backstop, the current capacity of the power grid can be used more efficiently without sacrificing safety or reliability. A flexible backstop is a safety mechanism that automatically and quickly reduces the amount of electricity that an electric unit can draw from the grid (an electric charging station or a heat pump) or deliver (a PV installation). It is a small device connected or built into an electrical unit, such as a charging station or heat pump, that ‘communicates’ with the distribution network operator. In case of extreme stress on the network, the network operator sends a signal to the device to limit the amount of power. Germany recently introduced a similar system with electric charging stations. The backstop would be activated only in periods of acute congestion problems and could help prevent the last resort measure, which is cutting off electricity to users. ‘Upgrading the electricity network remains essential, but in practice it will take years. So there is a need for short-term solutions that can be integrated into long-term planning. We, the members of the TU Delft PowerWeb Institute, call on the government, network operators and regulator to explore the flexible backstop as an additional grid security measure,’ they said. The entire Paper can be read here .
