Materials & Energy Transition
The Master of Materials & Energy Transition focuses on engineering solutions for the energy transition and circular economy. Combine study with work-based learning and make a direct impact in practice.
This practice-oriented master's programme centres on applied research in collaboration with the professional field. From the very beginning, you will be bringing your work into practice. You will learn to develop technical solutions for challenges related to the use of energy and materials. You will delve into the technology behind these solutions and the state-of-the-art knowledge available. This provides you with a solid technical foundation for your future career.
Most of all, you learn how to implement technical solutions to real-world problems. This involves more than just technology. Financial aspects, policy, and acceptance by individuals, groups, and society all play a role. You will be able to identify these stakeholders in transition processes, and engage them to create real impact.
This master's programme therefore offers not only in-depth theoretical and technical knowledge, but also practical insight. You will collaborate with people from diverse backgrounds. This master is taught in English.
You will graduate with a Master of Science (MSc) degree.
Na studia magisterskie mogą kandydować wszyscy, którzy ukończyli studia licencjackie lub inżynierskie (studia I stopnia), studia magisterskie lub studiują na ostatnim roku studiów I-stopnia. Studia, które planujesz powinny mieć zbliżony profil do tych obecnych lub ukończonych, ponieważ w procesie rekrutacji kluczowa jest ich zgodność programowa.
- Wykaz punktów ECTS – osoby, które są jeszcze w trakcie studiów, muszą załączyć wypis punktów ECTS, w którym będzie wykazane, jakie przedmioty były realizowane na studiach oraz ile punktów za nie otrzymano.
- Dyplom ukończenia studiów licencjackich lub inżynierskich – jeśli jesteś absolwentem wyższej uczelni, nie potrzebujesz wypisu, wystarczy załączyć dyplom ukończenia studiów wraz z suplementem (w języku angielskim lub oryginał z tłumaczeniem)
Spełnienie wymagań w zakresie języka angielskiego można udokumentować w następujący sposób (Wynik, który musisz uzyskać z testu językowego aplikując na wybrany kierunek studiów znajdziesz w wymaganiach rekrutacyjnych danego programu):
- IELTS
- TOEFL
You must hold a certificate or diploma demonstrating that you have successfully completed a Bachelor's degree in the life sciences or engineering sector before 1 September 2026. Examples include built environment, chemical engineering, chemistry, electrical engineering, environmental sciences, industrial engineering and management, or mechanical engineering.
A work-based learning placement is required for this master's programme. Avans can support you in finding one.
Admissions assignments
These assignments are part of the preparation. You must submit the following documents via our assignment site:
- Curriculum Vitae (max. 1 A4 page)
- Motivational letter (min. 1 A4)
You will receive the login codes for the intake dashboard after you have enrolled in Studielink.
Work-based learning placement
A work-based learning placement is mandatory for this master's programme. If you have trouble finding a work-based learning placement on your own, we can support you in the process. Admission to the programme is only confirmed upon receipt of a signed agreement by the company.
Assessment interview
Each student is invited to an assessment after their submitted assignments have been approved. This interview with one of the lecturers takes place in person or online via Teams. During the admission process, we assess your study motivation, English proficiency, and theoretical knowledge and skills relevant to this master's programme. You must successfully complete this assessment to be admitted to the programme.
Your job
Your MSc degree in Materials & Energy Transition will offer you plenty of job opportunities. It equips you to make the societal transition to a circular economy, based on sustainable sources of materials and energy, a reality. It requires people who dare to take ownership of real-world challenges.
The transition is happening everywhere: at small companies and multinationals, but also at start-ups. In local or (inter)national governments, and in all sorts of organizations. By the end of the program you will have learned much more about this, and discovered where you want to make your impact. And, you will know what roles suits you best: project leader, product or process engineer, consultant, researcher. All are available to you.
Whatever job you will find, it will always involve real-world engineering solutions that can make a real difference. You will become a true transition maker, and such people are always needed.
