Talk:Delft University of Technology

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following text which Fred 1 added:

it is an establishment of both national importance and significant international standing. Renowned for its high standard of education and research, the University collaborates with other educational establishments and research institutes, both in the Netherlands and overseas. It also enjoys partnerships with governments, branch organisations, numerous consultancies, the industry, and companies from the small and medium business sectors.

TU Delft tries to discover problems and challenges in society which, with all its expertise, it can work towards solving. In short, it is society itself that defines our most important assignments. Today, social issues are becoming progressively complex - more and more often, they require a multidisciplinary approach. TU Delft wants to continue focussing on combining its own strengths, building more partnerships, and participating in both nationally and internationally-recognised research programmes. In doing so, it will further reinforce its reputation as both a centre of excellence in the fields of education and research, and an 'interactive partner' in society, committed to answering its increasingly multifaceted demands, and intiating new changes to benefit people in the future.

[edit] Going to TU Delft for a master's

I'm a US college student thinking about going to TU Delft for grad school in engineering. Can anyone tell me what it's like? Will I die?

Depends on which engineering study you are planning to do and whether or not you will join certain student associations.... :-) SietskeEN 08:23, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DOES THIS UNIVERSITY HAVE A HISTORY?

Does this university have a history of any sort? What was it? Stevenmitchell 11:47, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Yes it has, as you can see at the Dutch wikipedia. I'll suggest you try and find someone who is willing to translate that information into English. SietskeEN 14:34, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

I translated most of it. Gemertp 22:32, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
