Our 3½-year full-degree programme taught in English provides you with the skills and knowledge needed to manage structural calculations, drawings, soil mechanics, road calculations, etc. The flexibility of the programme and the variety of electives allow you to create an individual degree that will prepare you for a desirable career.
Civil engineering is an international profession that involves the design, construction, operation and improvement of the built environment.
Civil Engineers provide the technical expertise and management skills to plan, design, construct and maintain such facilities as buildings, air and sea ports, water supply systems, waste treatment systems, road and rail networks and bridges - in a sustainable manner to reduce the impact on the environment. This programme takes place in Horsens.
CAREER OPPORTUNITIES
Civil Engineers find many different jobs. Some work with the management of projects, including financial and legal aspects, others in the area of highway engineering, infrastructure, traffic, soil mechanics or harbour engineering.Students specialised in structural design can work on the design and calculation of structures in concrete, steel timber, and masonry. Other areas focus on the environment, e.g. ground water, waste water, sewage systems, streams and lakes.
As a Civil Engineer, you have a wide range of career choices in companies all over the world, such as:
-Environmental Engineering
-Construction Engineering
-Structural Engineering
-Geotechnical Engineering
-Municipal or Urban Engineering
-Consultancy
-Contractor
PROGRAMME CONTENT AND STRUCTURE
The Bachelor Programme in Civil Engineering covers 7 semesters. Each semester deals with one specific topic. This approach gradually leads to an understanding of all aspects of the civil engineering process, such as building design, town development and the planning and implementation of building projects.
The programme provides you with a solid theoretical education combined with hands-on experience gained from practical assignments solved individually as well as in groups. Theory and class-teaching will predominate at the beginning of the course, whereas later on work will be more project-oriented reflecting the fact that Civil Engineers often work on projects involving many people.
On the 6th semester of this programme you can choose to specialize in one of three directions:
o Structural Design
o Environmental Engineering
o City Engineering - Urban Infrastructure
You are normally required to take an English Proficiency Test.
Most European Universities recognise the IELTS test.
Take testApplicants must have: mathematics at advanced level (Dansih A-level), physics at intermediate level (Dansih B-level), and chemistry at basic level (Danish C-level).
