Preliminary registration
If you want to join the TRU/e Cyber Security Master, please inform us as soon as possible. Simply fill in the form below and click on "Preliminary Registration".
We highly recommend you to register for the TRU/e students mailing list. We use this mailing list to reach all students with important information.
Enrolling at your home university
To really enter the TRU/e Master's track, you need to first enroll at your primary, "home", university. For details on the admission procedure, please refer to the respective websites of the two universities:
- Admission procedures of Eindhoven University of Technology
- Admission procedures of Radboud University
Enrolling at the other university
After registration at the primary university has been completed,
you need to register as a computer science student at the other university
(in order to follow the courses offered by that university, and to be able to take exams).
NB you should not do this secondary registration via Studielink, the central website for university registrations in the Netherlands, but directly at the university in question, as explained below.
By law, these secondary registrations, which are called subsidiary registrations at RU and elective registrations at TU/e, are free of charge. Make sure you include a "Bewijs van Betaald Collegegeld" ("Proof of Paid Tuition Fees") issued by the student administration (of your primary university) with the secondary registration requests.For the secondary registration at Radboud University (for students whose home university is TU Eindhoven), as a so-called subsidiary student, you will need to do the following (see also this webpage):
- Ask for a "Proof of Paid Tuition Fees" ("Bewijs van Betaald Collegegeld") at TU Eindhoven.
- Make a copy of your ID card or passport.
- Download and fill in the the form "Request for enrollment as Master's subsidiary student",
Send the complete package of those documents to
Radboud University

For the secondary registration at TU Eindhoven, (for students whose home university is Radboud University), as a so-called elective student, you will need:
- Permission from the examination committee of the home program to take specific subjects at TU Eindhoven. To obtain this document, send e-mail to fnwi.examcies@science.ru.nl requesting permission to take the courses you want. It is generally a good idea to request permission for all courses in the TRU/e curriculum.
- Original proof of payment of tuition fees (see above) can be obtained from the student administration services. Request a "Proof of Paid Tuition Fees" from www.ru.nl/proofofpayment. This can be done before you actually paid tuition, as long as you've authorized the payment of tuition. So it can be done as soon as your registration at the home university is complete.
- A copy of passport or ID card.
- the form to enroll as Elective student, English version or Dutch version.
Admission requirements
Students with a Bachelor degree in Computer Science from a Dutch university are automatically admitted to the Master at TU Eindhoven and at Radboud University.
Students from a polytechnic (in Dutch: HBO) with a degree in computer science will also be admitted, but need to follow an extended program with additional courses that aim to cover missing parts in their background. Check the information provided by your primary university.
Foreign students, or students with a different academic degree will be admitted on a case by case basis. A personal interview may be part of the admission procedure.
