Each year a considerable number of scholarships are awarded by TU/e partnered by top international technology companies.
Currently ASML, NXP, Océ, Philips and Bosch are all involved in the Amandus H. Lundqvist Scholarship Program (ALSP), named in honor of the former TU/e President.
The scholarships are awarded to students with the best grades in their previous education at renowned universities outside the Netherlands.
Attractive careers in the technological heart of the Netherlands
The TU/e prides itself on its reputation as being the worlds number 1 university for scientific output in cooperation with industry. Furthermore, the region Brainport Eindhoven is one of the most innovative centers for advanced technology in Europe. It has, for example, been the base for the technology giant Phillips Electronics for more than a century. Many more multinational companies have research, development and production facilities close to Eindhoven, including ASML and Océ, two of the ALSP scholarship partners. And in 2011 the Eindhoven region was named the most Intelligent Community in a worldwide survey by the Intelligent Community Forum.
