Online education

Studying online offers you the possibility of studying wherever and whenever you want. Within the Delft Extension School there are various forms in which you can follow online education here at the TU Delft:

Massive Open Online Courses MOOCs

TU Delft offers ‘Massive Open Online Courses’ (MOOCs) on the edX-platform. A MOOC is an online course aiming at large-scale interactive participation and open access via the web. In addition to traditional course materials such as videos, readings, and problem sets, MOOCs provide interactive user forums that help build a community for the students, professors, and teaching assistants. 
Here at the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences we offer:
