Offshore Engineering & Electric Power Systems : You do not need to enroll in your courses. You still need to enroll in the courses on Brightspace to receive the course material and hand in assignments. You will also still need to register for the exams on Osiris,14 calendar days before the exam date(https://www.tudelft.nl/en/student/education/courses-and-examinations/examinations/registration-for-examinations).

### Brightspace

The main website for course information. Lecture material, assignments, etc. are posted and handed in here.

### Lecture Style

The lectures are usually two hours long, with a 45 minute lecture -> 15 minute break -> 45 minute lecture -> 15 minute break. Some lectures are recorded and posted to a website called Collegerama (https://collegeramacolleges.tudelft.nl/new/)

### Assignments

There are various courses with assignments, both individual and in groups.

### Exams

There are various types of exams, such as oral exams, written exams and multiple choice. In general, they are more difficult than at DTU and you are not allowed to use a computer during your exams.

### Library

The library is a great place to work. During the exams it can be extremely busy. The last 3 weeks of the period the library has XL opening hours, then it will be opened from 08:00 to 02:00. Normally the opening hours are 08:00 to 24:00. During the opening hours XL the library will be full almost immediately after it has opened. Students wait in line in front of the doors in order to get a nice spot to study for the exams.

## Accommodations

### Accommodation Office

By the end of October, most of the first-year-students will receive a message in Osiris (TU Delft) to confirm the start of the next semester (might not apply to non-Delft students). There you will confirm your start from February on but you will also have the choice to ask for help with finding accommodation using the services of DUWO.

* **What:** Choose from DUWO accommodations
* **When:** Gain access in mid-December for 4 days
* **How:** First-pay First-served principle (so if you want to use this service, make the payment as soon as possible)
* **Pros:** Usually close to Campus; Affordable options; Mostly furnished; Short term possible
* **Cons:** Housing is not guaranteed (Sign-Up costs will not be refunded); Student Dorm Houses
* **Be Aware:** There are housing scams; There is a general Housing shortage in Delft; Often 12 months minimum are required for a contract; Some places are unfurnished
