CEM and CME explained

There are two different Master programmes at the University of Twente:

Civil Engineering and Management (CEM)

has 4 core specialisations (within UT)

- Construction Management and Engineering (CME)

- Traffic Engineering and Management (TEM)

- Water Engineering and Management (WEM)

- Integrated Civil Engineering Systems (ICES)

With CME, you have choice in all courses of CME at the three different universities, but not other CEM-courses.

4TU Construction Engineering and Management (CME)

has 3 core tracks (in 4TU)

- CME University of Twente

- CME TU Delft

- CME TU Eindhoven

With CEM, you have choice in courses of all four specialisations.

Civil Engineering and Management

With CEM, there are 3 specialisations on a specific discipline (Construction, Transport and Water) and 1 specialisation on a specific theme (ICES). In total, CEM has 10 profiles to choose from. Here you can find the general overview. You can click on the picture to zoom in.
