Denmark is undergoing a major reform of university education.
At Aarhus University, this means that all Master of Science in Engineering programmes can now be completed as Work-integrated Master’s degree programmes.
This opens up new opportunities.
Students can begin their engineering careers while completing their Master’s degree (cand.polyt.).
Companies gain access to recruit and develop the competences of young engineers in an entirely new way.
Students start with one year of full-time study at the university. This is followed by two years in a part-time position (25 hours per week on average per year) at a company alongside a flexible study programme.
The teaching is organised so that the last two years are entirely project-based. This gives students a high degree of flexibility, for example, to work in companies outside Aarhus.
Here, students alternate between university studies and part-time employment (25 hours per week on average per year) at a company throughout the entire Master’s programme.
At our Work-integrated Master’s programme Days, Bachelor of Science in Engineering students and Bachelor of Engineering students can meet with companies and get inspiration for future collaboration.
We hold Work-integrated Master’s programme Days twice a year at each of the four engineering departments and help match our students with relevant companies.
AU Engineering offers a total of eleven Bachelor of Engineering programmes, six Bachelor of Science in Engineering programmes, and six Master of Science in Engineering programmes.
We are located on a large campus with more than 5,000 engineering students and 1,000 researchers from around the world. Our mission is to develop and apply natural and technical sciences for the benefit of society. We cover the classic engineering disciplines within mechanics, biotechnology, chemistry, construction, and computer and electrical engineering.
All our educational and research activities are carried out in close collaboration with industry. This enables us to educate engineers with highly attractive skill profiles. Our graduates are in high demand and enjoy the lowest unemployment rate in the country.
