As a broad range of demanding topics have to be mastered, EFPT is considered to be one of the more challenging master tracks at the faculty of Mechanical Engineering. After the broad basis, students are free to choose a curriculum fitting with their interest. A selection of courses for which EFPT students are currently enrolled is listed below:
- FLOW: Advanced Fluid Dynamics, Turbulence, Multiphase Flow, Fluid Structure Interation, Viscous Flow
Numerical Modelling: Numerical Analysis, Modeling of Thermo- & Hydrodynamic Systems, CFD - ENERGY: Advanced Heat Transfer, Equipment for Heat Transfer, Refrigeration & Heat Pumps, Indoor Climate Systems
Energy & Engineering Thermodynamics: Advanced Applied Thermodynamics & Exergy, Fuel Cell Systems, Molecular Thermodynamics, Turbomachinery, Biomass Conversion, Wind Turbines - PROCESS: Mass Transfer, Process Dynamics & Control, Process Intensification, Process Plant Design
The first academic year at EFPT consists only of courses (60 ECTS). In the second year, all students are expected to carry out a full-time industry internship (>10 weeks, 15 ECTS). During the internship, a student is expected to work on high-end engineering- or research tasks in a related field of their interest. The remainder of the second academic year consists of an academic research problem (45 ECTS). The research is to be supervised by department professors, and can be carried out either internally (At the TU Delft facility) or externally.
