Admission to Master's programmes in Engineering

IMPORTANT!

New online application system
Aarhus University is in the process of developing a new common online application system effective from the 2012 intake. We expect to launch our new system from 1 February 2012.

We do not accept applications for Master’s degree programmes until this system is implemented. All paper applications received will be rejected and returned to sender. Our current self-service application system cannot be used either.

Admission information
Our application pages will be updated from now until February 2012. Thus, in the time ahead, you may notice we are making a mess – for which we apologise. Specific information about admission requirements, selection criteria, documentation requirements, etc. will be moved to the individual admission pages to be found in the Study Guide. When we open for applications from 1 February 2012, all admission pages will be up-to-date.

Application deadlines

  • 1 March for commencement of studies in late August

  • 15 September for commencement of studies in late January

Academic requirements

Admission to the Master's degree programme in engineering at Aarhus University requires successful completion of a BSc degree within the same subject. For this reason foreign students must be able to provide full documentary evidence that they have completed a university degree equivalent in level and contents to a Danish BSc degree.

English language requirements

Since English is the language of instruction in all subjects, all applicants are required to provide evidence of their English language proficiency.
Please see Admission requirements

Documentation

Application forms

Please download the application forms below.

You must send TWO copies of your application, including all appendices and a priority form (please download) in each appliation:

  • One copy for the administration office (the "original").
  • One copy (completely identical) has to be an “easy to scan version”: This means it cannot be divided in any way; have no holes, hold no stamps, clips, staples, tape, post-it notes, etc. All papers must be same (A4) size. It is fine to print on both sides of the paper. Please keep all papers together using only a plastic folder.
  • Diplomas sent to you by an educational institution must be removed from the sealed envelope (even though you are not normally supposed to to this), attached to your application and also provided as a copy. The broken envelope may be attached to the "original" application as proof.
  • The "easy to scan" copy will be inserted into the scanner without further processing. If all your documents are not included in this copy, they will not be filed, saved and assessed as documentation. Applications without an identical copy will not be processed.
  • You must submit two copies ("original" + identical copy) for each of the programmes you apply for.

New times at au.dk/en

The university’s website is being redesigned. The design and content will therefore change, and you may experience for a while that old and new sections are mixed together, and that the content is not in its usual place.

We hope that the new website will make up for any inconvenience, and that you will enjoy greater coherence throughout and find the website simpler to use.

Why are we making a mess?

In the time ahead, you will notice a mixture of old and new designs in the pages on the website.

In spring 2011, Aarhus University’s nine main academic areas were reduced to four, and the fifty-five departments became twenty-six. This was to unify the organisation and to strengthen the university’s interdisciplinary approach. We are now following suit by restructuring the entire website to ensure more coherence in the content and design.

Such an exercise takes time – and we hope you will bear with us!

Take a short cut

Under the HOT KEY at the top right, you can find links to the most frequently used content on the website, as well as the two new universes for staff and students.

Where can I find it?

Use the new mega dropdowns to get an overview of the website’s content. They open when you run your mouse over the navigation at the top.
