Bridging programme while earning a Bachelor’s at an HBO
If TU Delft has an existing agreement with your HBO, you may enrol in the bridging programme in the third and fourth years of your undergraduate studies. The programme,is called a ‘doorstroomminor’ [transfer minor]. It is important to note that the transfer minor programme is an integral part of an HBO programme and not supplemental to the courses taken to satisfy the HBO degree requirements; a total of 30 EC earned in the courses in the transfer minor are credited to the total required to earn the HBO degree. Click here for further information on the doorstroomminor.
Bridging programme following completion of your HBO programme
If you do not take the additional courses while completing your Bachelor’s during your HBO programme, then you must complete the bridging programme after you receive your Bachelor’s degree.
And if the field of study is not the same?
Theoretically, it is possible to enrol in a programme that is unrelated to your HBO programme. For further information, contact the academic counsellor for the programme which you wish to follow.
