The Delft-based MSc Programmes start in October and take 18 months.

The first year consists of taught modules and after successful completion
of these modules, you will do individual research for a six-month period.

MSc Programmes
You can apply to the programmes throughout the year, but make sure you
apply well before the deadline of 1 August, so you will have time to make
the financial arrangements and prepare for your studies at IHE Delft.
Our Joint Programmes and the MSc Programme in Sanitation have varying
start and end dates and a different duration. See website for more information.
