EngD: invest in yourself by working and learning

Maas van Apeldoorn, a Computer Science & Engineering graduate from the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), chose the EngD program to build on his theoretical foundation.

Now in his second year, Van Apeldoorn is working on a major project at research institute DIFFER, focusing on the development of new materials to improve hydrogen production. ‘Ultimately, we are contributing to the setup of a lab that can autonomously synthesize new materials, conduct experiments on them and use the results to decide which material it will synthesize next. My project entails working on a simulation environment for that future lab.’
