Program
The transfer minor TMES offers students of all engineering studies a technical deepening and extension of engineering knowledge. That leads eventually to a good connection to the master course MES.
The program in a nutshell
In the TMES program knowledge of mathematics and applied physics is deepened.
This knowledge will be used for modeling and simulation of technical systems in multiple engineering domains. (i.e. mechanical, electrical, hydraulical, thermal). Beside modeling and simulation, you learn how to control a technical system. Theory will be applied in assignments and in a challenging project, which also includes some technical scientific research. The transfer minor TMES consists of 50% theory and 50% application.
Learning outcomes
What have you learned by the end of the program? You can:
- Use advanced mathematics in technical context
- Analyse physical systems in several domains (mechanical, electrical, thermal, hydraulical)
- Apply physical laws and relationships in modelling technical systems
- Apply basics of control on technical systems
- Model and simulate technical systems in a structured way using Matlab, Simulink.
Project work:
- Predicting the behaviour of an engineering system with use of modelling
- Validating the behaviour with literature and/or practical implementation
- Conducting research and show scientific reporting and presentation skills.
Competences
You strengthen these competences during the program:
- C1. Analysis
- C2. Design
- C3. Realisation
- C4. Control
- C5. Management
- C6. Advice
- C7. Research
- C8. Professionalisation
Dutch way of learning
The atmosphere in a Dutch classroom is quite informal and your lecturers are easy to talk to. In fact, at HAN you’re seen as a partner in the learning process. Class sizes are small and your lecturers encourage you to actively participate in class. To ask questions and give your own opinion. They also stimulate you to be creative and to discover things for yourself.
HAN International Intro
Get a good start to your studies during this week of orientation:
- learn about living in the Netherlands
- become familiar with the campus
- get on board with your exchange program
- make new friends!
What about credits and grading?
At HAN we use the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System, or ECTS. It’s the standard credit system used in higher education across Europe. How does it work? One credit = 28 hours of study. Think of contact hours. Time spent working on assignments. Preparing for exams.
One semester = 30 credits = 840 hours of study. To earn credits, you need to pass your exams. What counts as a pass? A grade of at least 5.5.
