BSc Eng programme structure
from DTU Study Guide 2021
by DTUdk
The BSc Eng is a three-year programme with a workload of 180 ECTS points. Graduates obtain the title Bachelor of Science in Engineering.
The programme comprises four categories of courses, which each corresponds to 45 ECTS points: basic natural science, technology core, projects, and professional skill, electives.
Basic Natural Science Courses
45 ECTS points You cannot solve complex technological problems without knowing the basic natural science disciplines mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology. This course block provides an insight into these disciplines.
Technology Core Courses
45 ECTS points On the BSc in General Engineering, you specialize in one of the four focus areas: ‘Living Systems’, ‘Cyber Systems’, ‘Cyber Materials’, or ‘Future Energy’.
Projects and Professional Skill Courses
45 ECTS points You will experience the engineering spirit through Design-Build projects and also learn to use a range of relevant IT tools. Half-way through, you will undertake your first big project, the specialist project, which is an exercise in how to prepare a project and engage in teamwork. You will also take a course in science theory, before the BSc concludes with a bachelor’s thesis.
Electives
45 ECTS points You have every opportunity to shape your own unique academic profile at DTU. In the block of electives, you choose between several hundred different courses from DTU’s entire course catalogue, allowing you to steer your BSc Eng degree in exactly the direction you want, and in so doing increase the number of options open to you when choosing an MSc Eng programme.
