TU Delft plans to implement a quota for female students in aerospace engineering, supported by the Human Rights College. The university aims for 30% female enrollment, a goal previously blocked by the Education Inspectorate. The Human Rights College ruled this quota does not violate equal treatment laws. TU Delft will now discuss implementation with the Ministry of Education, believing it will improve the learning environment and tap into underutilized talent.
