Welcome events

Welcome to Delft event

On behalf of the TU Delft and the City of Delft ACCESS organises a ‘Welcome to Delft’ event for new and recently arrived internationals in Delft. These events are free of charge, but pre-registration is required. We have been doing these sessions since 2017, and are delighted that it has been rated as’excellent’ and ‘very good’ by 90% of participants since then.

2025 DATE: Friday 19 September 09:30-12:45 (see programme below) – Register for Welcome to Delft

There is no better way, to get settled, than to hear some tips & tricks, have a chance to ask some general questions, and, meet others in a similar situation. For this reason, the TU Delft and the City have asked ACCESS to plan and manage a ‘Welcome to Delft’ session.

Testimonials have been:

“Thank you so much for wonderful event.”

“I can’t think of any (missing topics). All the topics I had in my mind were covered.”
