Dean's Days

For vwo deans interested in visiting Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), we offer special full-day Deans’ Days with a custom program.  

Each edition has a theme, such as healthcare, energy and sustainability, or mobility and logistics. Within the theme, we will highlight fascinating, multidisciplinary projects from a variety of departments and will explain how we teach these topics. 

Custom program

The program of a Deans’ Day is customizable, and we are always happy to take your wishes into account. Usually we offer two programs, each with the option to hold a meeting with your ‘decanenkring’, differing only in how much time we spend on career guidance skills or the theme of the day.  

The date of your Deans’ Day will be determined in consultation with you. This way, it will always fit in your schedule.
