You might, of course, be more academically inclined and choose to continue your education at master’s level - in The Netherlands or abroad. It’s important to note that bachelor students on PFT must complete a one-year pre-master’s programme before being admitted to a master’s level programme. The most prestigious master’s for chemical engineering and food technology in the Netherlands are offered by the Delft University of Technology and Wageningen University. Examples of Dutch master’s programmes our alumni have taken include Food Safety, Development and Rural Innovation and Aquaculture and Marine Resource Management. Outside of the Netherlands, they have joined Denmark University of Technology (advanced Chemical Engineering) and The University of Edinburgh (Management of Bioeconomy, Innovation and Governance). PFT graduates have also taken master’s in Finland, Denmark, England, Belgium and many other countries.
