Description

The overarching aim of the programme is to provide graduates with science-based engineering skills for sustainable development of the blue economy. There is a growing need, both in Denmark and abroad, for expertise in maritime industries—such as off-shore energy, shipping, fisheries, marine spatial planning, and coastal engineering—sectors that are expected to grow in the coming years. Science-based engineering solutions for sustainable blue growth require both an understanding of the marine environment—both its physical and living components—as well as the knowledge and skill needed to implement engineering solutions in a marine setting.

Career Opportunities 

The programme provides graduates with a unique set of skills that are highly sought after in various marine engineering sectors. These competences include knowledge of the physical challenges associated with constructing offshore installations, developing technologies for both surface and underwater observations, and describing and modelling interactions with the natural marine environment.

Admission 

To be admitted to this programme, you must have an academic bachelor degree.

DTU Lyngby Campus

Description

DTU’s main campus consists of more than 100 buildings on a 106-hectare plain, which is divided into four quadrants—just like points in a coordinate system. The campus is safe and secure, and a site of great natural beauty with wooded areas, sports fields, inner courtyards, and gardens.  

The campus is located within the Greater Copenhagen Area and is easily accessed by car or public transport. You can get from DTU to Copenhagen Center in about 40 minutes by bus or trian, 45 minutes by bike and 20 minutes by car.

Most of the DTU main campus was build in the 1960s and 1970s, but new and modern facilities have been build continuously. DTU is currently investing more than 500,000,000 EUR in a comprehensive transformation of the university buildings and infrastructure, which is aimed at providing world-class research and student facilities.
