The selected students will receive a scholarship of € 5000 in the first year, and will be evaluated for the continuation of the scholarship in their 2nd year of the master.

Furthermore, scholarship recipients will be assigned to a NXP coach, and enter the Connected World Technologies track of the EE master’s program with relevant courses related to Millimeter Wave Technology.  

First-year recipients are required to take part in a team project supervised by NXP running from Nov-June in the first year. In the team project they will gain experience to work together on a millimeter wave system. Students from the previous generations highly valued the experience of this project. The project is done in parallel to the master courses that you follow at university and is an extra study load of 15 EC, distributed over quartile 2, 3 and 4.

NXP scholarship recipients who want to receive the scholarship in the second year have to choose a graduation project in the area of mm-wave technology. They are encouraged to do their internship and graduation projects with NXP.

NXP recipients are also offered the opportunity to join the Honor’s Academy. If you take part in the Honor’s academy, the team project will count as the 15 EC professional development component of the Honor’s program.

At the end of the master’s program, students will receive a special certificate next to their regular master’s diploma in Electrical Engineering.
