Are you a Scheduler, Communicator, Organiser or Welcomer?

All new international students to TU Delft are welcomed by the Central International Office (CIO) with a Introduction Programme. Every year over 2,000 international students take part in the two Introduction Programmes, organised in February and August. The Introduction Programme is a warm welcome to the new students. The academic, social and acculturation programme gives them the best possible start  to their studies in Delft.
