Find the Course that suits you perfectly

Biobased materials and recycling play an increasingly important role in the plastics industry. NHL Stenden University of Applied Sciences and Drenthe College are responding to this with the Sustainable Plastics Technology course. This is a unique collaboration between vocational (MBO) and higher professional education (HBO). Upon completion, you will have extensive knowledge of producing biobased and recycled plastics and will be able to monitor quality. You will also earn a certificate that the industry demands.

As a graduate of the Maritime Innovations master's program, you'll be able to execute complex innovation processes based on your operational expertise. You'll learn how to design, implement, and execute innovations. You'll also develop a clear strategy and be a skilled discussion partner at all organizational levels. The program is suitable for professionals in the maritime, maritime services, shipbuilding, maritime suppliers, and hydraulic engineering sectors.

After completing the Master's in Polymer Engineering, you'll be the specialist companies are looking for. As a consultant, process designer, or researcher, you'll have in-depth knowledge of (sustainable) plastics and circularity. You'll know exactly how to design smart and efficient production processes. High-performance plastics play a crucial role in the high-tech industry: they're becoming stronger, lighter, more sustainable and more recyclable. 

During the two-year part-time master's programme in Design Driven Innovation, you'll learn the design-driven and human-centered approach needed to contribute to a sustainable future. Social issues are becoming increasingly complex, including resource scarcity, the food transition, the distribution of wealth, and (positive) health. 

The smartwatch, electric car, and speed pedelec—just a few examples of electrical engineering in practice. And we haven't even mentioned virtual reality or robotics yet. Do you have similarly bright ideas for new forms of communication technology, healthcare equipment, robots, and sustainable applications? Do you want to become the engineer who designs these electronics or software? Then the Electrical Engineering program is perfect for you!

Without even thinking about it, you use infrastructure every day to get to your destination. Cycling to the supermarket, taking the bus to school, or walking to the train station. Have you ever considered what it takes to make this all work? As a spatial development professional, you shape the Netherlands. 

During the Green Chemistry program, you'll learn to apply green chemistry principles to address practical industrial challenges. In addition to technical lessons, you'll also develop professional skills, such as project-based work and the use of practical analytical instruments and laboratory equipment, while enhancing your social and communication skills. 

Discover everything you need to know about microplastics as a professional in one day: from sources and risks to the latest analysis methods, recycling, and legislation.

The Industrial Engineering and Management program trains you to become a well-rounded business expert who improves organizations from the perspective of technology, people, and processes. As a generalist, you'll be widely deployable: from projects to research and from planning to purchasing and logistics. Graduates typically hold management positions at various companies in a wide range of sectors, locally, nationally, and internationally.
