Delft Excellence Scholarships are in line with our research-based initiatives
such as Health, Energy, Globalization and Infrastructures & Mobility which
are among the most important themes in today’s society. TU Delft aims to make
an important scientific contribution to solving issues facing society that
relate to these four themes, working from a thematic, multidisciplinary
cooperation. Moreover, TU Delft is in the process of raising its international
profile in several areas, some of them relatively new. This is to be achieved
by clustering research capacity – either physically or virtually – in a number
of university-wide institutes. This clustering of high-quality research
capacity puts us in a better position to join national and international
consortia and networks, and also makes us more attractive to top scientific
talent.

Within
the scope of the Excellence Scholarships, TU Delft also offers the Justus &
Louise Van Effen Scholarships, financed by the legacy of Justus and Louise van

believed technological developments contribute to solving society’s issues.
The Foundation Justus & Louise van Effen was established with the aim of
stimulating excellent international MSc students and financially supporting
them in their wish to study at TU Delft.
