Preface
Welcome to the HAN Master’s Degree Program Engineering Systems!
Students and alumni describe the master’s programs as high-quality, contemporary and tailor-
made programs which kick-start their careers. The accreditation score in 2014 (Automotive
Systems) and 2015 (Control Systems Engineering), in which these master programs were
evaluated in terms of aims, contents, organization, staff, facilities, quality assurance and
results, underscore this description.
‘Translation of research into products’ is the focus of the program, meeting the demands of
industry as well as other research institutions which are active in applied research and product
development in the engineering area. There is a need for professionals who are goal oriented -
who are able to translate research into products relevant to market and society. During the
study, students gain the skills and knowledge to plan and carry out research/development
projects that contribute to the development of products. Apart from scientific knowledge and
skills, project management and communication skills are trained during the program.
On the one hand, the program is designed to enable (experienced) technicians to combine
their present work with study. By working on realistic assignments and case studies in the
program, students and employers have direct and tangible advantages in the professional
practice. On the other hand, the program enables future technicians to work on the
qualifications. The acquired qualification enables graduates to start or to continue their career
as a linking pin between technicians and (scientific) management, and between different
departments.
In this document you can find the Degree Statute (DS) and the Education and Examination
Regulations (EER). You will find direct operational information such as curriculum, method of
testing and assessment, practical rules and timetables. For your convenience it is also available
separately on HAN Onderwijs Online. The Degree Statute and Education and Examination
Regulations offer much formal and additional information about procedures and (background
of) the organization of the Master’s Degree Program. It also serves as a guideline for situations
in which a (official and legal) dispute has arisen and you have the opinion that your personal
interests are at stake or even damaged.
The staff is curious to know how this method of providing information is experienced and if it
is satisfactory. Suggestions for improvement are certainly welcome! Therefore do not hesitate
to report suggestions and comments.
We wish you much enjoyment and success!
On behalf of the staff of the Master’s Degree Program Engineering Systems

1 About the Degree Statute (DS)
The Higher Education and Research Act (hereafter referred to as “the Act”) stipulates in article
7.59 that an institute such as HAN University of Applied Sciences is obliged to adopt and
publish a Student Charter.
At HAN, the part of the charter that applies to all students, i.e. the institution-specific part, is
called the Student Charter. You can find the Student Charter and all its accompanying
regulations on the HAN website: http://studentenstatuut.han.nl.
At HAN, the degree-specific part is called the Degree Statute (DS).
The Degree Statute consists of five parts including a List of Definitions:
Part 1: General part (Degree Statute)
Part 2: The Education and Examination Regulations (EER), which contains the rules
about the education, final assessments and examinations of your degree program.
Part 3: The Education and Examination Regulations (EER), which defines the
education, final assessments and examinations of your degree program
Part 4: Regulations of the Board of Examiners
Part 5: Regulations of the Degree Committees
Note that Part 1 is purely informative. No rights can be derived from it. Rights and obligations
are derived from the other parts; these are legally applicable regulations.
1.1 Who is this Degree Statute for?
This is the Degree Statute for the following degree programs at HAN University of Applied
Sciences (BRIN1-nummer 25KB 1):
Degree program Institute CROHO
number
Degree and title after
graduation
Master Automotive Systems
Centre of Expertise
Faculty of Engineering

This Degree Statute contains information on the structure, organization and execution of the
degree program, the student facilities, counselling and personal tutoring, the EER and the
program-specific regulations that describe student rights and responsibilities.
1 The Basisregistratie Instellingen (BRIN) is a database for educational institutions that is published by the Dutch
Ministry of Education, Culture and Science. It contains all schools and related institutions.
Each educational institution is identified in the database with a number, the so-called BRIN number.

1.2 How do you read this Degree Statute
1. We use regular US spelling rules.
2. When we refer to ‘you’, we mainly mean you as an internal or external student enrolled
in these degree programs at HAN University of Applied Sciences. We also refer to others,
such as prospective students.
1.3 How long is the Degree Statute valid for?
Each academic year the departments at HAN University of Applied Sciences make a new
Degree Statute (DS) and new Education and Examination Regulations (EER). The DS-EER for a
certain academic year applies to everyone who is enrolled in that degree program for that
academic year. It does not matter which phase of your degree program you are in, whether
you are an internal or external student, nor when you started. You can find your DS-EER here:
https://www.han.nl/opleidingen/master/en/engineering-systems/course-overview/
This DS applies to the 2019-2020 academic year: from 1 September 2019 to 31 August 2020.
For students starting their degree program on 1 February 2020, two different DS-EERs apply
consecutively during their first “year”: the current one and that of the next academic year (but
the differences are mostly small).
Did you enrol in a previous academic year for the degree program? And is the degree program
working with a renewed curriculum or modified EER regulations? You can read how this is
organized in chapter 8 (Transition Regulations) of the EER.
1.4 How are the DS and EER compiled?
The Degree Statute for the program is drafted each year based on the Model DS/EER: a model
that applies for the entire HAN. It is adopted by the Faculty Board. The model is always based
on the Model DS and the Model EER of the current academic year.
The faculty council exercises the participation rights on the EER and DS, but only in so far as
the HAN Participation Council has not already exercised these rights through the Model EER
and in so far as these rights have not been conferred to the degree committee. How this
exactly works is set out in the Regulations of the HAN Participation Council and the Regulations
of the Degree Committee.
The advice of the degree programs board of examiners is requested in advance.
The relevant HAN organizational bodies strive to publish the new DS and the new EER before 1
June.

2 Education at HAN
Your degree program is part of the educational offerings of HAN University of Applied
Sciences. HAN has an overarching vision on higher education. Your degree program embodies
this vision in its own way. This chapter describes HAN’s mission, vision and culture.
2.1 Mission
At HAN we educate you in such a way that you are optimally prepared for your future or
current profession. But that is not the only goal of our education. Other goals are for you to
continue developing your social awareness and for you to be able to contribute to innovation
in a complex, dynamic and international society, now and in the future. We have subdivided
this mission as follows:
We want to give you a good Qualification for your future profession.
As a professional, you never work alone, but always in collaboration with others. We call
that educating you as a Network Professional. As a result, you learn to work well with
others and across borders. You also learn how you as a professional relate to the
historical context of your field. This gives you insight into what is expected of you now
and in the future.
We want to offer you a challenging program at Masters level where you can learn to
address problems in a systematic, solution-led manner supported by applied research.
We want to contribute to your Personal Development, so that you grow as a professional
and pursue lifelong learning. After all, your knowledge and skills are the basis of your
profession, but who you are, your qualities and your approach make the difference.
We want you to learn a sense of social responsibility, ethics and citizenship for your
profession; to learn that you have to mean something for other people in your
profession. This is often indicated with the term Bildung.
2.2 Vision
We achieve these goals together with you. Below you can read how.
- You learn in context. You get experience in practice. That helps you to understand the
complexity of your work. Learning is not something you do on your own. Your lecturers
stimulate learning with and from each other.
- You learn in the triangle of education-research-professional practice. You conduct
research, for example on the quality of work in the professional field of your choice, or on
the possibilities for innovation. This allows you to contribute to the development of your
profession. Also, in the case of new developments, you can quickly adapt to what is
needed to perform your work optimally.
- HAN University of Applied Sciences has a large number of research groups. These groups
account for the research at universities of applied sciences. They are also involved in the
degree programs. You can, for example, get research experience within a research group
in collaboration with the professional field. You can find all the research groups on our
website: www.han.nl/onderzoek/kennismaken/lectoraten.
Degree Statute academic year 2019 2020, Technical Masters, Part 1, General Part (degree statute)
8
- Personal tutoring and the student as partner. You are assigned a personal tutor for the
full duration of your studies. At HAN we want you as a student to feel acknowledged,
seen and heard. We also involve you in the organization of the degree program. This is
what we call ‘student as partner’. Each department has the freedom to organize its
education in such a way that it suits you as a student and the degree program. You can
read more about this in part 1 chapter 3 and part 2 chapter 4.
- Education with options. Besides your regular study program, we also give you various
options to choose from. For example, you can choose a graduation specialization. You
can read more about these options in the EER. In addition, we stimulate you to get
research experience, for example, at the research groups of HAN University of Applied
Sciences in an innovation lab or at a workplace learning location. For advice on your
choices, go to your lecturers and other HAN advisors.
- Internationalization @home or abroad. During their studies, all HAN students get to
experience the international context of their field.
2.3 Quality culture
HAN University of Applied Sciences fosters a culture of quality. A culture in which everyone
contributes in some way to high-quality education and a smoothly running organization. Below
you can read how.
2.3.1 Highly qualified staff
Our lecturers are highly educated. Many of them have worked in the professional field for
which they are educating students. Others have research experience relevant to this field. The
lecturers also have good teaching skills, which they acquired through training. This means they
know how to guide you properly in your learning. The examiners also have the necessary
qualifications. All our support staff are also properly trained in their fields. They all perform
high-quality work.
Because our departments collaborate with our research groups, researchers and professors
are also involved in education. This helps you to further develop your own inquiring attitude,
for example. The research group also allows you to discover the latest research results and
innovations in your field.
2.3.2 Stimulating growth and an attitude of learning
We want you to grow so you can successfully complete your studies. This is not achieved
simply through supervision. We also challenge you to be the best you can be and we train you
to become ever more independent in your studies. We stimulate you to be proactive in your
studies and we help you to continue developing your professional work attitude. You can
expect your lecturers to be available and respond to your questions quickly and clearly. You
can also ask for support when you are falling behind or when you are willing and able to do
more. Read more about this in the EER.

2.3.3 Responsible for quality
Each degree program has a quality plan. This plan, but also the EER, describes how students
evaluate the education and indicate what needs to be improved. It also describes how
students are closely and actively involved in improving their degree programs. Student
involvement and participation are important to us. But it is even more important that staff
members, students and the professional field related to your degree program, each in their
own way, are involved in or take responsibility for the degree program and HAN as an
institution. For example, for the quality of lectures, timetables, the curriculum, supervision at
your work/placement organization, examination and other forms of renewal and
improvement.
We invite you, as a student, to play an active role in this. This attitude will also be important in
your work. So we also regularly ask you for your opinion on the program. We do this in (digital)
surveys, an annual national student survey, and in oral evaluations in class at the end of a
period. We also invite you to actively collaborate on renewal and quality improvement. For
example, by improving the content and exams of the degree program or improving logistical or
organizational points: together with lecturers and/or support staff.
We also reflect on how we organize our education and research, on who we do it for and why
we do it in the way we do. We check our conclusions regularly with all involved parties; this
means you, but also lecturers, researchers and professionals from the field. Every 6 years each
degree program is officially monitored by the NVAO (Accreditation organization of the
Netherlands and Flanders).
2.3.4 Inspiring and interactive environment
We want you to be inspired by your degree program. For example, by getting the latest
information on developments in your field. And we always try to create an open, interactive,
safe and familiar learning environment. We encourage everyone to give each other honest
feedback.

3 Information about your degree program
3.1 Mission and vision of your degree program
The Master’s Degree Program Engineering Systems is a program of Applied Sciences. This
means that knowledge and techniques from fundamental research are applied in an industrial
environment, where complex processes require advanced systems. The Applied Sciences take
definite shape in the minor projects and the final master thesis: the Major Project.
We educate people to be engineers who are capable of solving complex, practice-related
problems themselves. In this context teamwork is at the centre of the Minor Projects of all
modules. Engineering Systems describes all aspects that are necessary to design, to develop, to
improve, to use and to maintain a technical system. Engineering Systems encompasses all
stages and all aspects of the life cycle; so not only the technical content, but also the working
methods, including the business processes: the focus is on systems thinking.
This approach is in keeping with the aim of the professional master: the professional practice
provides the frame of reference for the development of the curriculum. After completing the
master’s degree program, you are considered, as a highly qualified technical professional, to
be able to make a contribution to the development of your profession and your organization,
across the boundaries of his own discipline.
The focus of the Master’s Degree Program is the modelling of smart, dynamic systems, which
are systems that perceive and respond to the world around them. Because of this focus, the
program has two modules that all students work through: Systems Modelling and Applied
Control.
Our views on target groups and the realization of education are part of our presentation: our
views on cooperative learning are important for the realization of our education. We offer
education for mixed groups, which means students who proceed straight from a bachelor to a
master program (both international students and students from HAN bachelors) and part-
timers. They all bring their own contribution and learn from each other.
The area of expertise of the Engineering Systems Engineer does not stop at the border. On the
contrary: the programs are taught completely in English to accommodate the international
context in which the program functions. Society is changing at an increasingly faster rate. This
is also true for professions and labor organizations. Professionals are facing issues of increasing
complexity. All these issues require a multidisciplinary and cross-sectorial approach.
Degree Statute academic year 2019 2020, Technical Masters, Part 1, General Part (degree statute)
12
3.2 Content and organization of your degree program
The curriculum is constructed of elements with focus on theory, application and skills, in
relationship to the end-qualifications as defined in the next chapter. The teaching units are
organized around a theme. In every module the student is offered theoretical background (7.5
EC), Capita Selecta (2.5 EC) and a project (5 EC).
With most of these activities including literature survey, oral presentations and reporting, the
student will obtain guidelines in presentation and reporting skills, and will receive comments
on these communication achievements for a majority of his/her presentation and reporting
results.
Design of these activities as well as the assessments will be such that you will develop skills to
formulate a problem, to solve that in a step-by-step iterative approach and to draw
conclusions, which are of value to and in communication with the (non-specialist) problem
owner(s), see figure. You will also practice skills to analyze the problem at an abstract level and
break it up into elements to understand their relationships and organization (system analysis)
and to interpret the individual element performance in terms of the total engineering system
performance (synthesis). Non-technical skills will be addressed as well, including working in
teams (multidisciplinary, with a global international focus), self-management of the learning
process, and research skills.
Each semester consists of two periods. A period lasts between 9 and 10 weeks. The units of
study are a combination of lectures, assignments, exercises, etc. for one specific topic. The
scores for all parts of a program should be satisfactory (all pass).
3.3 How we educate and supervise
The purpose of the program is to educate you so that you can operate at Master level.
The intended learning outcomes of the master’s degree program are based on the professional
profiles and/or professional qualifications drawn up by (or in collaboration with) the relevant
professional field.
Degree Statute academic year 2019 2020, Technical Masters, Part 1, General Part (degree statute)
13
3.4 System of quality assurance for the technical master’s degree programs
The aim of our quality assurance is to work continuously on improving and guaranteeing
quality. The degree programs regularly (twice per module) surveys the opinions of students on
all kinds of matters relating to education in its broadest sense. This first relates to the
education that students participated in during certain periods, but also to matters such as the
study materials, scheduling of contact hours and study tasks.

4 Final qualifications for the degree program and professional requirements
4.1 The professional field
Associated large industries and specialized companies acknowledge the need for Systems
Engineers at Master’s level. This is reflected in the support of a number of companies. The
HAN research and competence groups work with students for projects in the industry. The
professional research and teaching staff support students in the broad field of engineering.
The HAN research centres do important work in the field of research and educational
innovation. They maintain a growing network with other educational institutions, the business
community, local authorities and non-profit organizations in the region. With their research,
professors respond to issues encountered by these organizations in practice. They involve
(Masters) students, lecturers and doctoral candidates in this process. Each research centre has
its own knowledge network, consisting of a group of experts from both education and the
professional field. This assures that a continuous process of coordination with professional
practice can take place.
The following research centres and professors are involved in the program:
HAN Automotive Research Lector: Dr. P.A. Veenhuizen and
Lector: Dr. ir. Frans Tillema
HAN Control Systems Research Group Lector: Dr. ir. A.J. de Graaf
HAN Lean Research Group Lector: Dr. ir. J. Slomp
HAN Sustainable Energy Group Lector: Dr. M. Smit
The Research Groups are contributing to and controlling the quality of the Master program by
supplying considerable human input of lecturers and presence in
the Program Board
the Master Advisory Counsel
the Board of examiners
Program Committee
Teaching in courses / units of study
by coaching major project students
by pre-assessing the reports of the major projects
To monitor the quality of the program, HAN attaches great importance to the opinions of
experts from the professional field for which the program trains its students. The Professional
Advisory Committee is composed of representatives from the professional field and field of
work. These experts assemble several times a year in the meetings of the Professional Advisory
Committee.

Exam Board (Board of Examiners)
The Exam Board establishes whether a student meets the conditions described in the
Education and Examination Regulations with regard to the knowledge, insight and skills
needed to obtain the Master’s degree. The Exam Board appoints examiners to administer and
grade exams. The members are appointed by the faculty director.
The tasks and responsibilities of our Exam Board can be found in the Regulations of the Exam
Board. These include additional rules regarding assessment and examination in so far as these
are within the powers of the board of examiners. See also the Regulations of the Board of
Examiners (part 4 of this degree statute).
Degree Statute academic year 2019 2020, Technical Masters, Part 1, General Part (degree statute)
28
The Exam Board decides, amongst other things, whether you meet the conditions to graduate,
as set out in the EER. You must have the required knowledge, understanding and skills. If you
do, you receive your degree certificate.
Other duties and powers of the board of examiners include:
Assuring exam quality
Granting exemptions
Handling requests for extra exam opportunities
Handling requests for modified exam formats
Granting an increase of study load
Handling complaints.
Your department has appointed (an) external supervisor(s). An external supervisor evaluates
whether the quality of the final assessment of the Master’s degree is sufficient. The external
supervisor is not an examiner.
You can find all the further rules on exams and final assessments that apply to you in the EER.
For rules on the organization of exams and final assessments, please refer to the Regulations
of the Exams Office.
The Board of Examiners of this Master’s degree program is composed of the following
members:
Marijn Jongerden secretary
Richard Kaandorp chair
Jaap Kerstma member
Harold van der Zee member
Martine Krabbendam administrative secretary
7.2.2 Participation of students and staff at faculty and degree level
Below is a short overview of the committees and councils of HAN University of Applied
Sciences. They discuss and also influence the policies and decisions made at HAN.
Degree committee
Each degree program or group of programs has a degree committee. A degree committee
consists of the same number of lecturers as students. The degree committee advises the
department about promoting and guaranteeing the quality of the degree program. Each year it
also evaluates the degree programs compliance with the EER. The degree committee also has
the right to be consulted on various matters. Through this committee, you can contribute ideas
and make decisions about the curriculum and organization of your degree program. Would you
like to join the degree committee? The members of the Degree Committee can give you more
information. The degree committee has its own regulations (see Part 5).
Degree Statute academic year 2019 2020, Technical Masters, Part 1, General Part (degree statute)
29
The members of the degree committee are:
Rik Catau Chair of the Degree Committee
Carolien Stroomer member
Frans Tillema member
Robert van Breukelen member
Allard de Keizer member
Faculty council
Each faculty has a faculty council. The faculty council has the right to discuss all faculty matters
and put questions to the management, which is obliged to give reasoned responses to these
questions. The faculty council has right of consent in matters concerning policies, budget,
education and examination regulations, etc. A faculty council consists of 12 members: 6 staff
members and 6 students. As a student or lecturer, you can participate in discussions in the
faculty council about the policies of the faculty as a whole, but also about the policy of the
institutes within the faculty. See Insite > 'About us' for information about the composition of
the faculty council and the official support
Participation Council
The Participation Council allows staff and students to participate at HAN level. The council has
a right of consent on certain aspects of policy, on the main features of the institution budget,
the general applicable part of the Education and Examination Regulations and more. The
Participation Council consists of 16 members: eight staff and eight students. The Participation
Council deals with general HAN policy.
Would you like to join the Participation Council? Ask the program manager for more
information. Would you like to learn more about the Participation Council? Are you curious
about who is on this council? Go to HAN Insite: www.han.nl/insite and click on ‘Participation’
in the left column.
7.3 Student facilities
Personal tutoring is an important part of the study program. It aims to help the student to
make the right choices during the studies and for his/her career afterwards. At the start of the
academic year, the student will be assigned a personal tutor. The student has individual
meetings with his/her personal tutor in which he/she discusses study skills, study behavior, the
programs he/she needs to follow and personal development. The personal tutoring program
includes a number of information sessions either specifically for the class or a broader
audience.
The tutor discusses the progress with the student at least once per half year (full-time) or once
per year (part-time program).
Lecturers may take the initiative for an additional interview with a student, for example if
results are less than expected. This initiative may also be taken by the student. This interview
Degree Statute academic year 2019 2020, Technical Masters, Part 1, General Part (degree statute)
30
aims to discuss the student’s progress and to indicate where adjustments are
required/expected and what the student’s possibilities are. A report of the meeting is made.
In addition, at the completion of each module it is normal procedure to provide the student
with a student evaluation form to address directly any relevant issues arising from the study of
that module. As this feedback questionnaire is an important part of the program monitoring
process, we urge each student to co-operate in the completion and return of these
questionnaires. On a yearly basis, the student is requested to fill in the NSE questionnaire
where he/she can judge the program on many aspects.
Tasks of the personal tutor
The personal tutor functions as a link between the student and the study program (program,
examinations, work placement and graduation assignment). The personal tutor has various
tasks. He/she:
Discusses the student’s choice of a program;
Supports the student in reflecting on competences and whether the student can use
this reflection to justify the choice of program;
Stimulates the student to take responsibility for his/her learning and ‘learning to
learn’;
Helps the student if he/she has questions/problems with the studies;
If the student’s studies are delayed or disrupted due to personal circumstances or a disability,
he/she can discuss this with the personal tutor. He or she can help the student work out a
solution.
In case a student needs direct help, he/she should turn to the support of the
Program Manager, Mrs. Bouwman
Program Secretary and coaches
