Projects

What is happening in Delft and other universities around CE?

Within IDE
TU Delft: an Ellen MacArthur Foundation Pioneer University
Courses 

The IDE faculty already offers 3 courses in the Bachelor and Masters that teach our students on how to apply circular thinking in design engineering. Also a MOOC (massive open oline course) is open and free for everyone to learn more about circular economy.

 

Research

Multiple researchers at the TU are looking into the CE field. We've made a quick overview of the researches in progress at IDE.

 

Past Student Projects

More and more students have been integrating circular thinking into their (graduation) projects. Get inspired by the projects we've handpicked for you!

 

In line with the university's fields of expertise and philosophy, the TU Delft is firmly committed to work towards a circular economy together with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation (EMF). This registered charity works in education, business innovation and analysis to stimulate a transition to a Circular Economy.

 

As of 2014, Delft University of Technology is one of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation's Pioneer Universities.

 

Delft University of Technology has been involved with the EMF since 2013 with the Schmidt-MacArthur Fellowship. This is the international postgraduate programme on circular economy for design, engineering and business students.

 

IDE's Circular Product Design research area focuses on the development of methods and tools that enable the design of products that are used more than once (i.e. that have multiple lifecycles). This research area explores circular design strategies, such as product life-extension, reuse, remanufacturing and recycling, and the business models that enable these strategies.
