Registration: the different steps

Participation in MSC elective courses of the Faculty IDE is only possible after registration in OSIRIS via MyTUDelft. For more information about the periods in which registration is possible, please click here.

How to select your activities in your elective semester?

Understanding the selection and registration system:
Step 1 There are a lot of possibilities for filling in the elective space, both inside and outside the Faculty. Read about all opportunities on this page.

Step 2 Open the overview of IDE elective courses at the right side of this website. Read first the information about the structure of the elective semester, then dive into the electives offer. Information about the content of the courses can be found in the overview.

Step 3 Important guidelines to take into account:

  • A course of 5 EC means 14 study load hours per week
  • A nominal study load of a quarter is 15 EC. This is equal to a study load of 42 hrs a week. If you select from the IDE offer of elective courses, this means you select three courses per quarter.
  • You may register for courses with a total maximum study load of 40 credits per semester. A student who wishes to take more courses must submit a written request for this, giving their reasons, to the Director of Education of the faculty (via educationregulations-ide@tudelft.nl) before the registration period.
  • Choose only one course per slot. The IDE elective courses are scheduled in five slots (A, B, C, D and E, (click here to find out more about these slots). Courses in the same slot will have conflicting schedules (taking both contact hours and self-study time into account). If you choose more than one course in the same slot, we assume that you leave the choice to the faculty and we will register you in only one of the chosen electives in this slot. Any choice made by the faculty will be irrevocable.
  • Make your choice and select only the courses that you really want to follow. Do not register for more courses/EC than what you want to/can follow. Principally what you choose is what you’ll get. And also important: what you get, you are expected to follow.

How to register for IDE MSc Elective courses.
Registration takes place in MyTUDelft. The process is the same as the usual registration for BSc or MSc courses.

Step 1 Go to MyTUDelft via Brightspace

Step 2 Under enrol (course), search for the courses of your choice using the course code, or the course name.

Step 3 Register for the courses you want to attend in both quarters of your 3rd semester.

Step 4 Make sure you check in MyTUDelft if your registration was succesful.

Step 5 If your registration was not correctly processed! Try again or contact the coordinator of education.

What will happen after registration?

Step 1 After the registration period the Faculty will process the registrations in MyTUDelft.

Step 2 For most courses applies: What you choose, is what you get.
A few courses have a limited amount of spots. If, for those courses, the maximum number of participants is exceeded, participants are drawn randomly.

Students, who are not included in the course of their choice (only in case of electives with a maximum capacity), will be contacted by the Faculty. These students will get the opportunity to select other electives up to the amount of EC of the electives in which they could not be included. Your response to this email is needed within a few days.

Step 3 The participation lists in MyTUDelft will be updated, and you will be automatically added to the Brightspace pages of your courses.
