Student review [#11956] for Chemical and Process Engineering
at Eindhoven University of Technology - TU/e

I’d first heard of TU/e from a friend who was also applying for his masters in the field of Chemical Engineering. As a bachelors student from India, Eindhoven isn’t as famous as some of its other contemporaries, especially TU Delft. But after arriving here and having visited both universities, it is pretty evident that both universities are on par and are among the best Europe has to offer, especially for the field of Chemical engineering. The faculty are very approachable and give very concise feedback to the students various issues. The coursework is also generally challenging for any Master’s student in general, but it strives to prepare the students for the various technical fields. The facilities at TU/e, namely the research labs, classrooms, library and of course the several study rooms are state of the art and are accessible for most of the day for all students. TU/e’s sports centre has facilities for several sports and a well-equipped gym, the registration for all of which is fairly cheap.
Eindhoven is a very clean and nice city to live in. The local Dutch residents are very friendly, most of whom speak English. The one main drawback would be the difficulty in finding suitable accommodation, which is a prominent issue throughout the Netherlands. Student culture is very refreshing owing to a large number of international students.
On a technical note, TU/e is renowned in several ranking systems for its collaboration with industry, leading to good career prospects for its students. So, I would definitely recommend TU/e for your overall development, both the academic and non-academic fields.
