Applying knowledge to solve real-life problems

All DTU’s study programmes are interdisciplinary and designed to promote sustainability, innovation, and an entrepreneurial spirit. Students have handson access to world-class facilities and receive an innovative education with industry partners where they can apply their theoretical knowledge to solve real-life problems.

Academic learning

Based on cutting-edge scientific knowledge, all teaching, supervision, and course development is carried out by educators who are actively involved in research and innovation. We teach using methods that reflect the way we work—innovation, critical thinking, collaboration, and engagement—all of which shapes our graduates.

Students develop analytical skills through independent study, group work, active participation in discussions, and close collaboration with fellow students and professors.

Amazing study environment

The study environment is vibrant and international, and most students stay after lectures to network, work on their own projects, or take part in one of our many extracurricular activities.

Great job prospects

A survey published in 2022 shows that 60% of DTU graduates were employed in jobs of relevance to their studies while enrolled at the university. And DTU graduates are sought after: Nine out of ten MSc and BEng graduates have found employment within a year of finishing their studies.

Extraordinary student projects

DTU’s nine Blue Dot Projects give our students the opportunity to participate in projects such as Denmark’s famous Roskilde music festival (roskilde.dtu.dk), and DTU’s annual student conference Green Challenge (groendyst.dtu.dk). The Blue Dot Projects are innovative, student-driven, and often multidisciplinary (dtu.dk/bluedot):
