Education at W.S.G. Isaac Newton
Welcome to the education section of W.S.G. Isaac Newton. The goal of our association is to promote the interests of our students in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Twente, in both informal and educational areas.
We therefore offer a variety of services to our members. Before the start of the quarter, it is possible to purchase the books you need with a discount. This is for both the bachelor- and master courses.
We also provide numerous study-related activities such as project nights, informative lectures and evaluation meetings.
One board member is specifically responsible for improving the quality of education, this is the Commissioner of Educational Affairs, Tom Bijwaard. He is always open to questions or complaints.
You can find Tom in the Newtonroom, by sending a WhatsApp message to the Newtonphone (0623463530) or by sending an email to: education@isaacnewton.nl.
