Student review [#14729] for Environmental Engineering
at IHE Delft Institute for Water Education

There are only 2 universities in the city of Delft. One is TU Delft and the other is IHE Delft. When it comes to size, IHE can’t be compared with TU, but when it comes to teaching or publications, IHE is not far behind TU. IHE is different from other institutes, because of its module system instead of the semester system. A student doesn’t have to wait the whole semester for exams, instead, after having two modules (3 weeks per module), students have to go through examinations. The benefit of such a system is that your knowledge about the course still remains fresh so you are able to do good in exams.
The second thing about IHE, that really fascinates me about its international culture and extracurricular activities. There are students from various countries covering all the continents. It is a really good opportunity to learn and experience the culture of different people here at this university. Not being a very big institute, everyone knows you here and you develop a family-like bond here.
Amidst of busy and hectic schedule, IHE also arranges events such as cultural nights, sports day, DJ nights to promote extracurricular activities in the campus and allow students to have some FUN.

Overall IHE is a nice place to study, learn the culture and everlasting friends. 🙂
