All TU/e programs are concluded with an examination, for which you must register using http://owinfo.tue.nl. Students who pass these exams will receive a bilingual certificate (Dutch/English) citing the Bachelor’s or Master’s program concerned. This certificate is accompanied by an official Diploma Supplement (example supplement) including a description of the educational system and a list of grades. The Diploma Supplement follows the guidelines of the European Commission and is issued free of charge
Passing a propaedeutic exam (first year of the Bachelor’s program) does not carry with it the right to bear a title, but allows you to participate in classes of subjects from the post-propaedeutic phase of the program (second and third year).
If you pass the final exam of a TU/e Bachelor’s program, the “Bachelor of Science” degree is granted. The subject area, on which the degree is based, may be added to that degree. The degree may be expressed by placing “BSc.” behind your name.
Students who have passed the final exam of a TU/e Master’s program will be granted the “Master of Science” degree. The subject area, on which the is the degree is based, may be added to that degree.

Students who have passed the final exam of a Master’s program are also authorized to bear the (Dutch) title of “ingenieur” (abbreviated to “ir.” when placed before the name).
