High-demand profession
Embedded systems is an up and coming field. So engineers with
this specialization are in high demand.

One of a kind
This is the only engineering bachelor degree in the Netherlands
that focuses solely on embedded systems.

MASTERS DEGREE?
After 4 years of study you’ve earned your Bachelor of Science in
Embedded Systems Engineering. Congratulations! Ready to join
an international company? Or further your studies with a master?
With your bachelor degree from HAN, it’s a smooth transition into
HAN’s Master in Engineering Systems. Or expand your
international experience even further and get a master degree
abroad. There are plenty of opportunities.
