    MSc programme ME MSc Track High-Tech Engineering (HTE)
    The purpose of the ME MSc Track in High-Tech Engineering (HTE) is to educate engineers in the
    technological knowledge and skills they need to design a new generation of both the products and the
    required equipment that will enable even greater achievements. Starting from the fundamentals of
    physics and mechanics, students gain the insights and understanding they will need to push beyond the
    current limits. The programme includes analysis, design and implementation of solutions, using analytical
    models, computational methods and experimental work to reach new performance and understanding.
    With this focus on the ‘ultimate in mechanical engineering’ the program confronts students with the
    daunting conceptual and design challenges of developing (and utilising) tools for precision mechanical
    engineering. Although the emphasis is on high-tech equipment and instrumentation, the same knowledge
    and methodology applies to energy systems, medical equipment, automotive and aerospace design and
    many other fields of mechanical engineering, enabling these future engineers to address the needs of our
    modern society.

    Focus Areas
    Next to the HTE obligatory courses students choose a research focus in which they want to deepen their
    knowledge. Focus Areas within the High-Tech Engineering track are:

    Mechatronic System Design (MSD) aims at designing integrated systems of mechanisms, sensors,
    actuators and control to perform complex tasks while interacting in a multi-physical environment,
    typically at high speed and high accuracy, at various length scales. Recent trends include distributed
    motion, as in compliant mechanisms, as well as distributed actuation and sensing, and control techniques
    based on fractional order calculus and reset strategies.

    Computational Design and Mechanics (CDM) deals with mechanical and dynamic behaviour of structures
    and systems, and their analysis and design through computer algorithms. Topics range from theoretical
    foundations of mechanics, modelling approaches (e.g. finite element analysis), to structural design and
    optimization.

    Engineering Dynamics (ED) studies the time-dependent linear and non-linear motion of mechanical
    structures to engineer dynamical systems. Material properties, thermodynamic interactions and physical
    actuation forces are studied for enhanced performance of high-speed devices, using mathematical and
    experimental methods to elucidate and control their complex motions. Explore the ultimate limits of high-
    frequency nanoelectromechanical systems of atomic-scale dimensions.

    Micro and Nano Engineering (MNE) bridges the gap between the ultimate small and the macro world.
    Students learn to develop and optimise production and assembly processes and technologies which make
    use of phenomena at the nanometre level. The primary focus within the Micro and Nano Engineering
    group is on the production and assembly of precise and small parts and products of micrometer and
    nanometre scale.

    Optics for Technology (OPT) covers the fundamentals of optics in theory and practice which is necessary
    for engineers in industry and academia. This includes the design of high-end optical systems, micro optical
    systems and light transport in complex media like tissue. This expertise can be combined with other fields
    of engineering (e.g. mechanical, materials, civil) to be able to design and build devices which can serve
    the new generation of societal needs in industry, environmental challenges and healthcare. This gives
    students more flexibility in choosing electives and building a portfolio for a successful career.
