Natural disasters, poverty, food shortage, epidemics, climate change; the greatest challenges society is facing today are characterised by enormous complexity. These so-called wicked problems are impossible to solve in a way that is simple or final. The world needs socially committed engineers who won’t shy away from these complex challenges but feel the urge to contribute to solutions that will make societies around the world more sustainable and resilient.

In the two-year, English-taught Master’s in Spatial Engineering at the University of Twente, you learn to address such large-scale and complex societal challenges by combining both technical and socio-economic knowledge with a strong basis of spatial data analysis and modelling.

With the increasing availability of spatial data and innovations in technology, the demand for spatial engineers continues to grow extensively. Whether you take on a job as a spatial engineer, project manager, consultant, or researcher, you could work for a broad range of (international) organisations in all kinds of fields, including water management, infrastructure, renewable energy, environmental remote sensing, or agriculture and nature conservation.
