Hi there! Welcome to the second (of three) newsletters for all new Master students in MOT
|
You have registered for the master's program Management of Technology (MOT)! You may still have doubts about whether you are going to follow this program or what studying at TU Delft actually entails. To help you make this choice, three international students have gathered all the information you may need!
Meet the team!
We are a team of three current international MOT students, Aditi, Yovanka and Ignacio, that had some doubts before deciding to study here, so we decided to join and write this issue from our own experiences to orient newcomers. This issue covers information regarding the entrepreneurship cell at TU Delft, about counsellors at the faculty and interviews with the teaching faculty and alumni. It also has a list of places where you can "chill" in Delft. We have also enclosed some information about the health insurance and GP registration. |

We – Agaby Masih and Charles Fayt – are looking forward to meeting you all at the start of the Academic year. We will be your Academic Counsellors for the whole duration of your time with us in Delft.
But what does an Academic Counsellor do?
You can reach out to us by - mail – appointment - during consultation hours - to discuss things impacting your study.
But what kind of things?
Think of studying with a disability, need of making a new study planning, study skills, when you have unfortunately to deal with personal circumstances reducing your ability to study. It can also be about the choices to be made within your programme as electives or thesis. We are here for you offering a listening ear in a safe environment free of judgements. We can also help you get access or redirect you to some of the many facilities at the Delft like the student psychologists, student doctors. Do you know of writing coaches or the opportunity to work on your personal development by taking a workshop on essential study skills? We are very much looking forward to meeting you at the faculty!
