MSC ENG PROGRAMMES
Mathematical Modelling and Computation
This MSc Eng programmes will provide you with extensive knowledge of applied mathematics and mathematical modelling as
well as modern computer equipment and analysis of large data volumes. Mathematics is an integrated part of our everyday
lives, and its use will become even more prevalent in the future. There is an ever-increasing demand for mathematical models
and methods in, e.g. industrial applications, information technology, financial institutions, energy, government issues, drug
development, DNA mapping, and environmental research.
Career prospects
Graduates are qualified for jobs in industry and academia: the IT sector, consulting engineers and other consultancy firms,
the pharmaceutical industry, logistics and development departments, and private and public research institutions. dtu.dk/mmc
Mathematical Modelling and Computation
Joint programme with KAIST within the Mathematical Modelling and Computation MSc
The main focus of this double degree programme depends on your chosen specialization. The key topics are harmonic
analysis and functional analysis, PDEs and inverse problems, graph theory, algebra, and coding theory as well as
cryptography and scientific computing.
Career prospects
The double degree programme in Mathematics offers a unique opportunity for students who want to specialize in
mathematics and pursue an international career. dtu.dk/matmoc
Petroleum Engineering
This MSc Eng programme focuses on the safe, innovative, environmentally sound, and economically viable extraction of oil
and natural gas. The programme offers high-level courses in geophysics and rock mechanics, thermodynamic and chemical
properties of oil and gases and their flow—–in rocks and pipelines.
Career prospects
The Petroleum Engineering programme enables you to contribute to solving the global challenge of meeting the increased
demand for oil and gas. Petroleum engineers are typically engaged in the projecting of oil or gas production from reservoirs and
you will be able to head the development and implementation of new technologies for efficient and sustainable production,
or engage in international high-level research in the field. dtu.dk/petro
Pharmaceutical Design and Engineering
Focusing on how to design, develop, and test drugs in line with the methods applied by the pharmaceutical industry, you will
acquire a broad range of competences in all areas of pharma, e.g. diagnostics and nanotechnological treatment methods.
Aspects relating to documentation, approval, and distribution of drugs—–as well as the legal aspects relating to documentation,
approval, and distribution of drugs—–are also included in the programme.
Career prospects
Graduates from Pharmaceutical Design and Engineering are highly attractive to the pharmaceutical industry, which has been
heavily involved in defining the knowledge profile of the MSc Eng programme and thereby the competences of a Pharmaceutical
design and Engineering graduate. dtu.dk/pharma
Photonics Engineering
Focusing on fundamental physics of light and optical components as well as a wide range of applications which are essential
to our high-tech society, this programme include courses in basic physics, optical materials and structures. The programme
places great emphasis on innovation and future applications of optics and photonics to develop technological solutions to
societal challenges—–including quantifying carbon dioxide consumption, improving combustion processes, securing commu-
