What students and alumni say

"I had an opportunity to immerse myself in different subjects like mathematics, robotics, and materials science. In my research project, I focused on control engineering at ASML, which trained me to put my knowledge into practice."

Niels Veldboom

Master’s alumnus Mechanical Engineering at the University of Groningen

"I really enjoy studying Mechanical Engineering in the Netherlands, especially because many professors link our coursework to real-world semiconductor applications — like how advanced control loops are used in ASML machines, where nanometer-scale precision is crucial for chip manufacturing."
