Our values
High quality
All of the participating students have a great deal of theoretical and practical knowledge. Every student is in the final phase of his or her studies, and is working towards a Master’s degree. Beside this theoretical knowledge, the students have extensive practical experience from participation in internships, projects and committees of all kinds of organizations.
Non-profit
IRP Delft is a non-profit organization that is focused on the personal development of its members. The main goal of the team is to broaden its horizons by adding value to the current state of your company. In return, the students gain valuable experience and have the opportunity to apply their knowledge and skills. To make the research possible, assets have to be attended. The main part will be taken at the expenses of the companies involved. Dependent on the duration, location and the manpower a price to measure will be made. International Research Projects Delft is a foundation and does not aim to make a profit.
Extensive Knowledge
At Delft University of Technology, students have extensive knowledge in a wide array of technological areas. Therefore, IRP Delft offers the unique opportunity to combine market research and development with scientific knowledge. In the previous years of IRP Delft, student teams have carried out successful projects for companies within a wide range of sectors.
