Welcome to the DSE Fair
It is with great pleasure that the DSE team and I welcome you to the largest job and career fair for engineering students in Denmark, The DSE Fair Lyngby 2023. The DSE Fair is where more than 130 companies, start-ups and organizations look forward to meeting and talking to students and hopefully finding their new interns or employees. The fair’s strong fundament comes from the over 60 student volunteers, who each year work hard to make this the best fair in Denmark for you, your fellow students and all the participating companies.
DSE Fair Lyngby 2023 is a great opportunity for students to meet company representatives and expand their professional network. The Fair gives the students a unique opportunity to speak directly to company representatives and hear directly from themselves what is attractive to a potential employer and which skills are valued in their company.
The unemployment rate for engineering graduates speaks for itself, and there is, without a doubt, high demand for engineering students. Why would more than 130 companies else take two days out of their calendars only to talk to the next generation of talented engineers? We are so grateful for the support and engagement from both the industry and DTU. Despite engineering students being a highly attractive workforce, the job
market is an ever-changing and emergent organism, and it is not set in stone which jobs are waiting for you after you graduate. It is, therefore, very important that you become as attractive to the market as possible – so come prepared, read up on companies, and find out why you want to talk to them.
If you have not read up on the companies beforehand, you can always use the job and career handbook Pejling. Here you can read more about the companies and obtain skills that empower your resume writing, upgrade your CV and how to improve your network. I am sure Pejling will give you the tools you need for a successful fair experience.
If you have any questions about the fair, do not hesitate to drop by our offices located at DTU Lyngby Campus in the Student Center on the second floor in building 101E or at DTU Ballerup Campus, room D2.82 or reach out to us on Facebook (DSE Lyngby) or Instagram (@ dse.dtu)
I look forward to seeing you at the DSE Fair Lyngby 2023, March 29th and 30th at the Technical University of Denmark.
Cecilie Oved Bendtsen, Chairman, DSE – Students’ Business relations.The DSE Fair is arranged by DSE (Students’ Business Relations), which is an entirely voluntary student organization. DSE has around 60 members across two divisions with offices located in Ballerup, Lyngby, and Aalborg. Most of our members are engineering students. DSE has been around for 30 years, and the relevancy of our services are as great as ever.
As an organization, DSE offers a lot of benefits as well as challenges for our members. Apart from the DSE Fair, we arrange Focus Night and PRE-PAIR. We also produce one of the best job finding tools in the country, Pejling.
Do you want to organize events for career fairs, design catchy posters, or experience planning and management of major events up close? We are always open to new ideas, and we can help turn yours into reality. At DSE you will have the opportunity to improve on a personal level as well as your professional skills.
DSE is not only beneficial for your future career, it is an organization which broadens your social network. We create the framework for a large range of social events – both for all DTU students and within the organization.
Curious? If you think it sounds interesting, come by one of our offices for a talk.

Fair Guide
Bring your CV
When you bring your CV to the fair, it shows that you have thought about your job application process and are serious about your interest in the company. Furthermore if you have a CV with a portrait the company representatives are more likely to remember you.
A Helping hand
For the 34th consecutive year, DSE Fair Lyngby provides the perfect framework for networking with a broad spectrum of companies, one of which, might be your future employer. At the fair, you can get connections in the business world which can be highly valuable in your future search for a project, student job or even fulltime job. To help you get the most out of the fair and make good use of your time, we encourage you to keep reading this and spend some time preparing for the fair, using the tips below.
Be well prepared
First of all, it is a good idea to ask yourself how you want your career to develop. What would you like your career to look like one year after graduation, and what should you do to achieve this? This mindset provides a solid basis for your conversation with the companies and helps you figure out whether a specific company fits your visions for the future.
Know what you are looking for
Is it a job or an internship? Ideas and contacts for a project? Or general inspiration? Whatever you are looking for, use this as the common thread through your visit and to help you make a prioritized list of which companies you want to visit. We recommend that you use the fair catalog to choose a top ten list of companies and visit them first. This way you avoid running out of steam before reaching the companies most relevant to you. You can always return to other companies later. Remember to include lesser known companies on your list too – they can provide just as exciting opportunities.
Explore their websites
Before visiting the fair, be sure to do some research on the companies you want to visit. A good place to start is the companies’ websites, which provide all the basic information you need to prepare a thorough conversation with the company representative at the fair. Once you have the basics covered, it is easier to prepare a list of relevant questions you want answered when visiting the company’s stand at the fair. It is a good idea to prepare these questions in advance. Bring it to ensure you explore each every oppertunity fully. It will also help you to start interesting conversations with the companies.
At the fair
Once you are at the fair, remember that the companies are there to make contact to students such as yourself – so don’t be afraid to make the initial contact; they are all very willing to answer your questions. When you talk to the companies, remember to use your checklist to make sure you ask all the relevant questions and add new ones if they should arise during a conversation.
With just a few keywords you will be much closer to writing the CV or application that gets you the job interview. Another notable aspect is the time – you can easily spend a couple of hours at the fair talking to interesting companies and attending the Company Presentations (pp. 27) in the DTU Library so be sure to set aside sufficient time. If you are close to graduating, looking for a student job, or simply want to know more about the job positions available at the moment, you should check the DTU Career Hub as well as a part of your fair experience. Read more about DTU Career Hub at page 22.
We wish you some great days at DSE Fair Lyngby 2023!
Sincerely the DSE Fair Committee

Are you in need of a short break during your visit at the fair?

Remember to also get your stamp for the stamp competition!
The DTU Library
Explore start-ups and organisations in the DTU Library!
Meet exciting start-ups from DTU Skylab. Working at a start-up is dramatically different from what day-to-day life might be like in a large corporation. At this year’s fair you can meet different start-ups from DTU Skylab both days and hear about what life is like to start something on your own.

- Ingeniører Uden Grænser
- Grøn Dyst
- EWH - Engineering World Health
- IDA - Ingeniørforeningen i Danmark
Presentations of the Future Corporate World
Do you want the opportunity to come close to a company, a project or a technology that is being used in the industry today? Then come see presentations by companies attending the DSE Fair to hear how they overcame big engineering projects, integrated new technologies or methods or even found a solution to a future problem.
Place: DTU Library.
Time: Every presentation take 20 minutes in the time span from 11:30 –13:00 on both Fair days.
Time Wednesday, March 29 Thursday, March 30
