BSC ENG PROGRAMMES
General Engineering
In the first semesters, you are required to take a number of mandatory courses such as mathematics, physics, and chemistry and
you will experience the engineering spirit through design/build projects. Then, in the second and third semesters, you select
introductory courses to two of the four focus areas that you are most interested in: Living Systems, Cyber Systems,
Cyber Materials, and Future Energy—and in the following semesters, you will specialize in one of these areas. In the fifth semester,
you have the opportunity to spend a semester at a university abroad, work on a project in collaboration with a company, or specialize
further at DTU. In the sixth semester, the programme is concluded with a bachelor’s thesis.
Career prospects
Depending on your choice of specialization, you can apply for admission to a wide range of MSc Eng programmes at DTU
or at another university.
