Students in general, but especially first year students, do not have the healthiest reputation. “Studeren is combineren”, and therefore, “4 hours of sleep a night is plenty”. Since you never learned how to cook for yourself, you often end up with a pizza from the fridge, and the 200m walk from your house to the supermarket (with a crate of beer in each hand) perfectly counts as sport.

Bij een aantal studenten heeft de incasso van het collegegeld door een technisch probleem niet plaats gevonden. Dit heeft geen gevolgen voor de inschrijving. De betreffende studenten hebben een e-mail ontvangen met meer informatie. Vragen? Stuur een e-mail naar csa@tudelft.nl of een Whatsapp bericht naar 06 10339730.

ENGLISH:

Due to technical difficulties, the automatic withdrawal of tuition fees has not occurred for this month for some students. Don’t worry, this does not influence your enrollment. All students concerned have received an email with more information. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to send an e-mail to csa@tudelft.nl or a Whatsapp message to 06 10339730.

As you might have noticed as you cycled to the faculty and arrived with a sweaty shirt, we are currently experiencing the hottest September since they started measuring temperature. The consequences of climate change are becoming more visible. Time to act, don’t you think? Continue reading →

During summer you might have noticed it, as the university has upgraded 60 lecture rooms on campus with the newest and awesome high tech audiovisual facilities. Several ‘four quadrant’ screens and projectors have been installed, enabling teachers to use the smart boards to show several subjects at once. You can find these screens in the EEMCS faculty for now, but in the next years all 150 lecture rooms will be provided with this new technology.

During this summer two new education rooms have been realised on campus in Building 26 (de bouwcampus). In your timetable this location is named 26, with rooms hall 1 or hall 2. We can imagine you might need some help in finding your way to this new education building. So, we made some brief instructions:

Building 26 is located south of Civil Engineering, Van der Burghweg 1. See also the campus map.

Hall 1 is located in the separate building to your right, seen from the main entrance. This building has its own entrance. Hall 2 is located on the ground floor of the main building. From the entrance you need to cross the hall straight on. After passing the elevators you will find hall 2. This hall is named ‘Auditorium’ on the signage.

We hope you enjoy the new education spaces!

The Proof of Enrolment (or ‘Bewijs van Inschrijving’ in Dutch) is your official  document stating your enrolment type and -period at TU Delft. Every student who has a completed enrolment receives a Proof of Enrolment. This Proof of Enrolment will be sent to your Studielink correspondence address when you live in The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany or Luxembourg. It contains a handy press-out part with all your details. Press it out and keep it safely in your wallet!

We send them out in weekly batches, depending on the status of your enrolment you can expect to receive your Proof of Enrolment after 5 September 2016.

We hope you enjoyed your holidays. Traveled the world maybe, enjoyed the sun (and the rain if  you stayed in The Netherlands). Most importantly of all: did you not think about your studies for some weeks? No? Well we did! But now the academic year is once again about to start and we have some interesting things that we would like to share with you:

1. My TUDelft app

Right when the holidays started, the TU Delft finished it’s app for mobile devices! We wrote a small post about it then, but want to point it out to you once again, because it is so darn handy. In one quick overview you can see your upcoming activities, your schedule and your latest results. So don’t hesitate and quickly download it from the app store or google play!

2. New food at our campus

The university is working on new food and beverages offerings on campus. This summer the food market in the Fellowship and the Coffee-star in the library (re)opened! The Coffee-star has grown and offers you more spaces to take a seat and enjoy your drink, panini or healthy snacks! The Foodmarket in the fellowhip, in the southern part of our campus, houses three new places to serve you your breakfast, lunch and diner! La Casa Kitchen, serves honest and delicious mediterranean food, a Satebar serves you the best Indonesian dishes and at Soep&Ballen you can enjoy organic dishes made following old-fashioned recipes.

3. New Applied Sciences building in use

The new building for the Applied Sciences faculty at the south side of the campus is finished and already in use. Lots of departments have taken their place in the bright and shiny new environment designed by Ector Hoogstad Architects. If you haven’t been there yet it is definitely worth a visit.
