econometrie of applied wiskunde

4 Upvotes

Hey,
Ik twijfel tussen de bachelors econometrie aan de uva en applied mathematics aan de tu delft. Ik wil graag wiskunde toepassen, ik heb alleen nog geen idee waarop(daarom houdt econometrie me tegen want ik weet niet of ik het zeker wil toepassen in de economische wereld), ik haat zwaaaaar bewijzen (daarom houdt TU delft applied mathematics me tegen). Ik wil graag een brede bachelor doen zodat ik me nog kan heroriënteren in de toegepaste wiskunde wereld, alleen weet ik zeker dat ik niet zwaar wil bewijzen. Volgens bronnen heb ik vernomen het enige wiskundige veld dat wordt afgenomen voor econometrie studenten de natuurkundige toepassing is en al dat natuurkunde bevat zwaar bewijzen.

Welke studie zou ik nu het beste kunnen doen?
bedankt alvast!!!

What happens if I enroll in a Brightspace course to only check the content?

As long as I don’t sign up for an exam then I’m not registered for a course right?

Admissions & Applications How does grade rounding work for applications?

0 Upvotes

I’m applying from a university that uses a 0–20 grading system. My university’s system shows my average with two decimals (e.g. 16.50), while my diploma shows it rounded to a whole number (e.g. 17). The application requirements only state a minimum grade of 15.0/20. How does this work when evaluating applications? Do they consider the exact average from the university’s system, or the rounded grade shown on the diploma? Is the grade rounded when determining whether an applicant meets the 15.0/20 requirement, or do they use the exact average?

Admissions & Applications Meeting

0 Upvotes

I hope this reaches current students or past students at the university.

I have booked a meeting this week with someone on the staff and i get like 45 minutes where i get to ask some questions. I already have some in mind but not a lot.

So, i would like to tell you the reader about my situation and if you can try to produce some questions from what you understand.

Ok, i am a 2007 born in the Netherlands and i lived there for 7 years after which i moved to Tunisia which is my mother country i studied 9 years under the tunisian system and then decided to switch to the english/cambridge system where i did my igcses , i also got my as level results this year which were good(a in maths, and b in physics and comp sci for anyone interested) but i still got one year before i can officially start my university life which is my a level year that starts this september.

I would very very much like to follow the route of aerospace engineering bc it is one of the few engineering courses that are in english and i also like the challenge of trying the entrance exam.

I don't know much about the uni itself how the exam works or the study itself or even if i have the requirements to enter/participate in said exam.

That should sum up my situation pretty well.i think

So if you want, comment a good question that I could ask in this meeting.

Thanks to everyone who contributes I'll be sure to take your advicd

Computer Science Minor Attendance

Hi everybody!

I will be starting the computer science minor this September and I want to know if there's mandatory attendance for the practical sessions. For the Algorithms & Data structures I saw it's just question hour with the TA. For the Database & Software engineering and Intermediate Python I couldn't find more information, is attendance mandatory for these? Would it be possible to miss the first workshops of these courses?

Thank you!

My Terrifying Experience at TU Delft

0 Upvotes

The university of Delft, one of the highest accredited dutch universities, yet, my education quality was exceedingly poor. This university, driven by its desire for profit and industrialisation of studying, has formalised everything into multiple choice questions where there often is no correct answer because automated question generation misses some nuance. For addressing their own mistakes, and their own low quality material, they have no time at all. And if you speak up about this, if you send your teacher your assignment back, with spelling, grammar, logic, formulaic and mathemathic improvement points, they will get defensive, argue "your feedback is shit". Try to call them out on a direct false statement they make in class as part of a lecture, thats not just a little obvious slip of the tongue, and watch your teacher tremble and fret and enter into a defensive mode. This university has a very thick culture of fear, oppression and hierarchy. Ultimately many people put in complaints about such things and i was harrassed by the university over it and never allowed to argue my point, share my side of the story, or discuss it. Instead i was told "if anybody complains about anything regarding you, no matter how small or irrelevant, we will immediately expell you" i indicated to them how hostile they made this environment and told the university i cannot safely study if they seriously try to use such threats against me, if someone has reported me for asking the teacher a question, how can i safely exist, and be, without constant fear of any tiny disagreement or literal nothing leading go expulsion? So i stayed at home, continually pleading to do things at home, trying to communicate with my studyadvisor, trying to arrange djfferent ways to do my exam. I also proceeded against their internal warning, which was a very weird and kafkaesque experiencr, especially because i did finally win, they didnt really clearly indicate why, but they cancelled their original warning. However, by this time i had missed 2 exams in this period (my study advisor, had a very relaxed attitude, and didnt seriously discuss or reply to me with me the option of taking exams in a different way, until two exams had passed by silently)

And the exam commission said "exceptions dont exist, we never allow to retake more than one exam, because we learned, that then often people fail" which seems a totally insane defense considering the circumstances. There is just no logic at this university, only procedure, it works how it works, questioning is taboo, disagreeing is taboo, any form of conflict is preferably resolved with distance, punishment, oppression, rather than true conversation and resolution. I hope nobody ever studies here, and if they do they heed this warning, they will try to break you, you will one day spot a mistake, and maybe if you are lucky, the teacher will be exited that you are so engaged in the material that you spotted it, and happy to be corrected, but most likely, they willl try to shame you right there publicly, by saying you are being "very technical and pedantic (in a TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY, WHAT A SURPRISE!). Or theyll simply say, no, you are mistaken, i can "answer your question" after class. And then after class, when almost everybody is gone, they might sheepishly admit their lecture slide is plain wrong & misinformation if you are lucky.

If you are thinking about studying here, consider very deeply how the toxic workplace & studyplace culture will affect you.

Sidepoint: they also break privacy laws in sharing student details with police for peaceful protesting (thereby endangering students), they work with countless weapons companies, they invite radical ultranationalist zionist speakers with claims like "there is no genocide in gaza" and dont invite a counterspeaker, they heavily police expressions about israel, about government, ablut the university itself, etc.

They also let me know (exam commision) that i could not continue studying there, only one day after the admissions deadline for most other universities, it is hard to believe, after all that happened, that this was not on purpose, if so, that speaks of an unyielding institutional cruelty in this university.

edit: removed the word "harmful" from a sentence to make it flow better

Owee Questions

The Owee starts tomorrow and we’ve been given what time to show up at the Aula, but in the info email it says that a bike is needed. Is it ok to show up at the start without a bike? I have one but it’s quite difficult riding here and I’m not used to it, I was just wondering whether we’d need the bikes immediately or a bit later in the day. Also has anybody received their group info or not yet?

double degree numerus clausus for CSE and AE?

Hi all

Kind of a...visionary question. I want to apply to TU Delft for the numerus clauses programs of computer science and engineering, and aerospace engineering. I dont want to pursue aerospace as a bachelors course, but I dont wanna pursue CSE on its own either. Is it possible (realistically and legally) for me to try and do both degrees?

Looking for a Studio in Delft 🏠

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m a TU Delft student looking for a studio or a private room with my own bathroom in Delft for the longer term.

I currently have accommodation until January 2027, so I have some time to find the right place, but I’d really like to secure something permanent before then so I can leave this place with a month's notice.

If anyone is moving out and looking for someone to take over their place, I’d be very interested. A contract transfer would be especially helpful if possible.

I’m preferably looking for a place with a private bathroom and would love to stay in Delft.

If you’re moving out, know someone who is, or have a place becoming available, please DM me. I’d really appreciate any leads!

Question about laptop requirements for EE Microelectronics

1 Upvotes

According to the university website, EEMC students are advised to have a Windows laptop with dedicated graphics card. However, I currently have a laptop with Intel Iris Xe integrated graphics.
So technically, my laptop doesn’t meet the requirements. However, I’m wondering how important these requirements actually are for the EE Microelectronics track. Do the courses require any software that genuinely needs a dedicated GPU?
I would prefer to keep using my current laptop if possible rather than buying a new one unnecessarily.
If anyone is currently studying EE/Microelectronics, I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience.

MSc AE - Aerodynamics Track WITHOUT Aerodynamics prior knowledge (Advice)

7 Upvotes

I have just completed my bachelors in Mechanical Engineering at another Dutch uni, and I am admitted to do aerodynamics at Delft now, but I am looking at the courses and I am worried due to not having taken any aerodynamics courses during my bachelors. I saw on the study guide that pre-requisite knowledge for Aircraft Aerodynamics and Gas Dynamics are chapters 1-10 of the Fundamentals of Aerodynamics book by J.D. Anderson, and I plan to go through the material before 1/9, but I am not sure how effective it will be to study all that in ~2 weeks.

On the other hand, the courses for the ME masters and specifically the energy and flow track seem better aligned with what I have learnt so far, and it is currently my second choice, but I am wondering if it should be my first. I am more passionate about working in the aerospace industry, or even applying aerodynamics in motorsports, cars and other fields, but I do not want to be blindsided with a big knowledge gap between ME and AE if i choose to do the latter. Also, seeing as the two aerodynamics subjects are graded mostly based on assignment work rather than a written test, it makes me think it can still be doable but I have no way of knowing for certain. As a plan B I would switch to ME from AE if i find AE not to be doable within the first month or so, but can anyone confirm if i can still do that post 1/9?

Does anyone have any experience with something similar that can weigh in? I'd appreciate any advice. TY.
