What you will study
This is a professional bachelor's degree at University College of Northern Denmark in Aalborg, taught in English. It trains you to design, plan and manage building construction works. The programme is planned to start in 2027 and is still awaiting final approval, so details may change.
What you study
The programme covers the whole construction process. You learn project planning and 3D modelling, digital planning and controlling, and energy consumption calculations that comply with building regulations. You also get hands-on project management on construction sites.
The role you are training for sits between disciplines. As an architectural technologist and construction manager, you often act as the link connecting architects, engineers and contractors. Your drawings, blueprints and digital models must contain all the information the construction process needs on site, so communication is a key part of the work.
How the programme is organised
It runs for 3.5 years over seven semesters. In the sixth semester you complete a 20-week internship, applying your knowledge and gaining industry experience.
Teaching combines theory and practice through real-life cases and simulations. Classes are small, and you work with classmates. Throughout the programme you visit construction sites and companies involved in project development, design and the production of building materials. These visits show how professionals from different disciplines bring buildings from concept to completion.
There is a shorter route too. You can apply for the professional bachelor's programme and graduate after two years with an academy profession (AP) degree in Construction Technology, or stay for another 1.5 years to finish the full professional bachelor's degree. The first 1.5 years are identical for both qualifications. The AP degree lets you start a career in the construction industry, while the full bachelor's degree qualifies you for a broader range of technical, planning and management roles.
Who it suits
This suits someone who wants to turn construction projects into reality and make sure they meet legislation and building regulations. You should like the mix of digital tools and site work, and be comfortable coordinating people from different trades. If you enjoy drawing, modelling and planning, and you want to see a building go up, this fits. Good communication matters, because much of the job is keeping architects, engineers and contractors on the same page.
