This excellence is evident by the many good results and prizes previous iGEM TU Delft teams have acquired through the years!
Department of Science Education and Communication

The department of Science Education & Communication at the Delft University of Technology seeks to develop competencies and expertise by continuously linking theory and practice in both our research and education. Both our master programs provide BSc and (double degree) MSc students with deep knowledge on how people learn, collaborate and communicate. Students apply this knowledge to real-world education and communication problems in the context of technological innovations. Our mission is to support and professionalize teachers, communication practitioners, engineers and scientists to get ready for 21st century technology development in which science, technology and society are more intertwined than ever before.
Faculty of Applied Sciences

The Faculty of Applied Sciences’ main ambition is to contribute to resolving the major social challenges of our time through its teaching and research. These challenges include a secure, safe, clean and efficient energy supply, health (e.g. effective medicines), security of food supply, green economy/bio-economy, safety and security (also in terms of information transfer) and innovation. The faculty aims to be among the best in the world in a number of research areas.
