Description

Startups worldwide are racing to revolutionize fusion technologies, governments are competing to build the first operational fusion reactors, and breakthrough demonstrations of fusion energy production have sparked new hope for a sustainable energy future. Controlling matter at temperatures exceeding 100 million degrees, designing and operating superconducting magnets, withstanding intense power fluxes and radiation, and mastering the operation of the most complex machines ever built. These are not just technical feats—they are opportunities to be part of a transformation that could redefine energy for humanity. At Eindhoven University of Technology, our Master of Science and Technology of Nuclear Fusion equips you to meet these challenges head-on. The program integrates applied physics, mechanical engineering, and electrical engineering into a cohesive curriculum tailored to the practical goals of fusion research and technology development. Beyond technical expertise, you will gain experience in international, interdisciplinary teams, with a strong focus on the societal and ethical aspects of fusion energy.
