===Students=== The majority of TU Delft's students are male. In 2021, among all students of the university ([[MSc]] and [[BSc]] level) 30% were women. The biggest imbalance between men and women is seen in the [[Mechanical engineering]] faculty, while the smallest is seen at [[Industrial Design]] and [[Architecture]] departments.<ref name="Student Population">{{Cite web|url=https://www.tudelft.nl/en/about-tu-delft/facts-and-figures/education/student-population/|title=Student Population|publisher=TU Delft|access-date=2018-02-28|archive-date=2020-02-18|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200218091635/https://www.tudelft.nl/en/about-tu-delft/facts-and-figures/education/student-population/|url-status=dead}}</ref> Despite many efforts of the university to change that imbalance, the number of women studying at TU Delft has stayed relatively constant over the years.<ref name="Student Population"/> {| style="text-align:center; float: right; margin-left: 2em;" align="center" class="wikitable" |+ ''TU Delft student body demographics''<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |date=2023-08-01 |title=Facts and Figures |url=https://www.tudelft.nl/en/about-tu-delft/facts-and-figures |access-date=2023-08-08 |website=tudelft.nl |publisher=Delft University of Technology}}</ref> ! !! 2009 !2022 |- !
