Construction and Mechanics - candidate The field of study 'Construction and Mechanics' is for you who want to help develop new and better solutions based on the laws of mechanics. Engineers with competences in construction and mechanics are involved in the development of new and better solutions within products, mechanical components, production equipment and industrial plants. The focus of the solutions can be everything from small structures such as parts in a hearing aid or in a mobile phone to engines, turbines, wind turbines, ships and offshore constructions. The focus of the education The master's degree 'Construction and Mechanics' and its subject areas cover both the systematic construction methods within construction and product development as well as analysis, numerical simulation and optimization with a focus on strength ratios, flows and energy conversion. During the course, you will have the opportunity to use systematic construction methods and advanced mathematical models. Applied mechanics is included in many contexts, where you make use of your extensive knowledge of physical principles, force relationships, flows and energy transformation. The teaching is based on lectures as well as individual and team-based exercises in group rooms, data bars and laboratories. You will have the opportunity to carry out the final Master's thesis, which relates to the discipline's subject areas, in collaboration with an active research group or as a project in collaboration with one of our company contacts. Focus areas The degree course 'Construction and Mechanics' covers five focus areas or subject areas. You can therefore put together a course whose primary focus is within one of these more limited areas: Construction and product development
Here we seek the answer to the question: How do you carry out industrial product development and construction of mechanical and mechatronic products and systems efficiently and with a high probability of a solution?
There is a focus on creative problem solving, project work, product life considerations, method application, communication and the use of computers in synthesis work.
Strength ratios and dynamics
The starting point is a good understanding of physical relationships and the desire to model and calculate on them. Computer modeling based on extensive use of applied mathematics as well as experimental methods are included as essential disciplines. The teaching within the subject area qualifies the students to be able to carry out a strength, vibration and stability analysis and dimensioning of products from micro components to machines and, for example, drilling platforms.
Industrial flow mechanics
Solving practical industrial flow engineering problems using classical physics, applied mathematics, numerical methods and experimental methods. The approach is partly purely theoretical by setting up and applying mathematical models to the problems and then solving these using a computer, partly purely experimental by studying and measuring the flows, i.a. to verify and improve the established models.
Energy Engineering
The focus is on energy-converting processes in power plants, cooling plants and heat pumps, combustion engines, fuel cells, industrial plants as well as analysis, numerical simulation and optimization of systems in which these machines and plants are part. The academic basis is thermodynamics, including heat transmission, combustion processes, properties of substances and parts of the theory of flow.
Maritime Constructions
Here the focus is on technical constructions in and on the open sea – for example large container ships, wave energy plants, offshore wind turbines and facilities for fishing. The professional basis is based on the planning, dimensioning, construction and operation of these maritime structures, taking into account safety, economy and efficiency in order to minimize the impact on the surrounding environment both locally and globally in the best possible way.

One of the important factors when considering a master's degree is the cost of study. Luckily, there are many options available to help students fund their master's programme. Download your copy of the Scholarship Guide to find out which scholarships from around the world could be available to you, and how to apply for them.
The study programme focuses on: - the broad and general engineering competences. - providing students with a solid grounding in mathematics, physics, and chemistry. - work and study across disciplines to be able to apply them in solving actual problems.
Throughout the programme, students have the unique opportunity to work on design-build projects which are practice oriented. Students also work on an interdisciplinary group project where they propose an engineering solution to a specific problem from the real world. This familiarizes students with the engineering approach when it comes to solving problems which also teaches them to communicate and liaise with their group to find the best solutions in real-life settings – an essential element for engineers who wish to embark on a career on a global scale. Please also note that spaces are limited with only 150 students admitted per academic intake.
Tuition fees
Thetuition fee at Technical University of Denmark are €7,500 per semester (€15,000 per academic year) with payments made bi-annually at the beginning of each semester.
If you are an international student who is an EU/EEA citizen, you are not required to pay any tuition fees. In most circumstances, non-EU/EEA citizens will be required to pay tuition fees at DTU. However, some non-EU/EEA citizens may be exempt. If you are unsure as to whether you are required to pay tuition fees, you can find out by clicking here. There are currently no scholarships, tuition fee waivers or any other forms of financial funding available at undergraduate level. For more information about tuition fees, visit the university’s website.
Entry requirements You will need to fulfill the three sets of admissions requirements when applying to DTU:
Please remember: - To submit all necessary documentation, including your CV and personal statement (which must be written in English). - If your high school diploma and college diploma are not in a Nordic language, English, German, Spanish or French, these should only be submitted once they have been translated into English by an authorized translator. - If you are a non-EU/EEA citizen, you will also need to submit a scanned copy of your passport. - All non-EU/EEA applicants must pay a one-off application fee of €100.
DTU offers 33 graduate programmes which cover all fields of engineering, many of which offer different study lines and focus areas for students to choose between. MSc programmes at DTU are 2 years in length and follow the flag model, with the 120 ECTS equally divided between general competences, technological specialization, electives, and the master's thesis. This gives each programme a unique flexible structure, where students can choose between hundreds of elective courses. This allows students to create their own, unique profile within engineering. DTU also collaborates with other top universities around the world in offering 27 joint international MSc programmes.
Students are trained in advanced research methods where they learn to adopt a constructive and critical approach to research findings. They also learn to translate new knowledge into technical solutions and are encouraged to take responsibility for planning and executing projects by participating actively in discussions in order to develop their critical and analytical skills.
By the end of their graduate studies, students will have acquired the qualifications and skills necessary to analyze, synthesize and evaluate theory and experiments relating to complex engineering systems, problems, and solutions.
Tuition fees
Tuition fees at DTU for a master’s degree are €7,500 per semester (€30,000 for a full two-year master's degree) which must be paid per semester, or in one lump sum.
If you are an international student who is interested in studying at Technical University of Denmark, special funding is also available. Options include:
Tuition fee waivers
Every year, DTU awards a limited number of tuition fee waivers to new non-EU MSc students with an excellent academic record. Tuition fee waivers are awarded on academic merit and cover tuition fees for two years.
