You build the world of tomorrow

Your future is built on smart solutions and your expertise. Look around you: everything is constantly evolving. From the smartphone in your pocket to the energy transition, and from medical robots to sustainable cities. Technology is the driving force behind this innovation, and the Brainport region is at the heart of it.

We believe that students like you hold the key. Technical talent is desperately needed to tackle the challenges of the future. At Summa Techniek & Technologie, we don't view your studies as just another degree program, but as the start of your career in the Brainport region. Here, you'll learn to work with both your head and your hands to create a better world.

Are you ready to be not just a spectator, but a creator?

With us, you won't be stuck in books all day. We believe in tackling the challenges head-on. You learn the trade by doing it – in the workshop, the lab, and at real companies.

No two students are the same. Perhaps you learn faster by watching, or perhaps by doing. Perhaps you want to accelerate, or perhaps you need some extra guidance. We look at who you are and what you need to succeed. Your talent is our priority.

You'll be taught by instructors who know what they're talking about. Many of them also work in technology themselves. They're up-to-date on the latest developments and bring them directly into the classroom. This way, your knowledge will never be outdated.

You won't be studying on an island. You'll be studying in Brainport Eindhoven, one of the smartest regions in the world. And we collaborate with the companies that are putting this region on the map.

Shoulder to shoulder with companies

During your training, you'll have direct contact with top companies, from major players like ASML, VDL, and DAF to specialized companies in your area.

• Internships and learning places: Participate in real assignments.
• Guest lectures and company visits: See with your own eyes what it's like.
• Job prospects: After your studies, you often have a choice of jobs.

Technology never stands still. The jobs of the future are emerging now. Through our close collaboration with the business community, we ensure you're ready for those jobs. Whether it's in mechatronics, electrical engineering, or process technology, you decide.

As a technician, you're indispensable. Without you, the machines would stand still, nothing would be built, and the technology wouldn't work. You can choose from a variety of fields perfectly suited to your interests.

Of course, you come here for a degree. But studying is more than that. It's about discovering your strengths, collaborating with others, and growing as a person.

A solid foundation

We provide good guidance. Do you need help with subjects, or are you just not feeling your best? You are not alone. Together with your study coach, we will ensure that you reach the finish line.

Continuing your studies at a university of applied sciences?

It doesn't stop at MBO. With an MBO diploma from Summa, you have a perfect foundation to progress to higher professional education (HBO). Or you can start working and continue learning in practice. Lifelong learning starts here.

Still unsure? Or want to get a feel for the atmosphere? The best way to choose is to take a look. Visit our locations, talk to students and teachers, and see for yourself where you might be working soon.
