What you will study

This is a two year Master of Science in Engineering at the University of Southern Denmark, taught in English in Sønderborg. The register description frames the degree around one idea: new technology only matters when it can turn a red bottom line black. So you learn to judge both the engineering and the business side of a new product or process.

What you study

The programme builds basic competences in product and process development while you specialise in a narrower subject field. Alongside the engineering subjects, the business side is part of the degree, with finance and market research named in the description.

The register lists the areas you work with as:

  • High tech
  • Entrepreneurship
  • Automation and digitisation of machines and production systems
  • Business administration and management
  • Smart product development
  • Innovation in practice through projects with industry
  • Business development and financing
  • Scientific methods

That mix is the point. You should leave able to analyse new business opportunities and new technological opportunities, and to assess their commercial potential. The digitalisation and automation competences also let you help companies through a digital transformation.

Admission, language and next steps

Teaching takes place in an international study environment, and the language of instruction is English. The register description does not set out specific entry requirements, deadlines or documentation, so check the programme page and the institution for those.

As a master's programme, the application goes directly to the University of Southern Denmark rather than through optagelse.dk, which handles undergraduate applications. Students from the EU/EEA and Switzerland study free of charge. Other students pay a fee that the institution sets.
