Student Reviews
Representative reviews"A great decision"
I was sceptical before starting — now I'd recommend it to anyone. The best part: the cohort are bright and motivated, which makes the learning environment great. If I'm honest, first-year classes can be quite large. On the city — everything works — public transport, cycling, healthcare, admin. Overall, if you're considering Mechanical Engineering at Universiteit Twente, I'd say go for it.
"Exceeded expectations"
This is the perfect place to study this subject. The best part: the opportunity to do independent research in the final year is a highlight. If I'm honest, accommodation allocation was stressful in the first year. On the city — English is universal; you don't need Dutch for the first year. Overall, if you're considering Mechanical Engineering at Universiteit Twente, I'd say go for it.

"Solid, with caveats"
Overall a solid programme but worth going in with open eyes. The best part: the course strikes a good balance between theory and practical application.
