Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

The Case of a successful contract

We have interviewed Marco Eykelenboom, the project director of a large refinery revamp and extension project in the Rotterdam area (the Netherlands). We asked him about his project, the cooperation with his client and the way he is trying to improve the effectiveness of the organisation by focusing on the people, the communication with them and the feedback from them. With this he wants to create a motivated team that is satisfied with their work even under the high pressure of such a large and complex project. A challenge without a doubt, but a rewarding experience if we listen to him.
