Starting this year military engineering students from the Royal Military Academy (KMA) in Breda will join the bachelor's students civil engineering. Previously they went to Breda for three years, worked for two and then spent two years at the UT.
'But this has changed', Godfried van Lieshout, director educational programmes for civil engineering, explains. 'From now on they will more or less take our regular bachelor's programme. To that end we have made two versions of the bachelorÆs. Three-quarters is the same, but the KMA-students also take courses like military engineering, bridge-building and explosives. The regular students can take these as optional courses.'
