Description    

DTU offers an interdisciplinary study programme that focuses on the broad and general engineering competences. The programme provides you with a solid grounding in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, and simultaneously teaches you to work across disciplines and apply them to solve actual problems.

Engineers find answers to some of the questions surrounding us daily – from the big challenges to the small but significant details. They learn to break down issues and find specific and practical solutions. They work with wind power, AI, medicine, infrastructure, and many other areas influencing our daily lives.As a student in the bachelor programme in General Engineering at DTU, you learn the skills it takes to help shape the future.Studying General Engineering, you gain a list of general competences across the engineering field and can specialise within your chosen topics. This combination allows you to gain a thorough understanding of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biotechnology while diving into your favourite subject. That way, you get the best starting point for a career as an engineer.Through the programme, you will collaborate with your fellow students as you work on several design-build projects, which are projects focused on finding diverse solutions to real-life challenges. Here, you learn to collaborate, communicate, and apply the learned technical skills.The General Engineering programme is international, with all courses taught in English, and approximately 40 percent of the students are Danish, while 60 percent are international.If you love collaborating, want to gain a global perspective, and find solutions that make a difference, this could be your programme.
