Today, ‘manufacturing and management’ is not just about physical products — it has just as much to do with services. At the same time, globalization means that a single product — such as a smartphone or a refrigerator — consists of a great many individual components, each of which may have been manufactured in a different part of the world. Therefore, engineers are needed to manage and develop companies’ production chains — from the choice of international suppliers to the introduction of new digital production forms.

As a manufacturing and management engineer, you can — for example — contribute to creating more competitive, responsible, and sustainable production by developing and optimizing companies’ processes and workflows.

Manufacturing and Management is a multidisciplinary study programme that gives you an understanding of technology and business, as well as good communication and collaboration skills. You will learn to develop and optimize companies’ production processes and procedures, and you will gain insight into all the areas that make a manufacturing enterprise function well. You will therefore learn about production and about planning, project management, and resolving technical and logistic problems in the production process.

The focus can be on how information management is handled, or the introduction of new work processes and methods. You will also learn how to help employees work better together, for example through organizational and competence development.

Study programme structure
The study programme has four subject focus areas: management, technology, economics, and information technology. Semesters 1-4 consist of courses focusing on key subjects from the four areas and on interdisciplinary projects. For example, you have courses in organization and management, technology, LEAN, materials science, statistics and material strengths, as well as managerial economics. You will have regular assignments based on the theories and models you are learning about in the classroom.

You spend semester 5 doing an internship in a company, and in semesters 6 and 7 you fine tune your profile through electives. The study programme ends with your BEng project, which is often done in collaboration with a company.

Danish language requirement

In all Danish-language civil engineering and engineering majors, it is a requirement that your Danish qualifications are equivalent to a Danish A-level from upper secondary school. This is called the Danish language requirement. The Danish language requirement applies to those who apply with a foreign entrance examination.


In the Danish-language civil engineering majors, the Danish A-level is included as one of the specific entrance requirements. Fulfilling the Danish A-level by passing a subject in the Danish A-level also fulfills the Danish language requirement.


In engineering majors, the Danish A-level is not included as one of the specific entrance requirements and the Danish language requirement is therefore relevant if you apply on the basis of a foreign entrance examination.


How to meet Danish language requirements/Danish A-level


  • High school Danish A-level

Passed upper secondary supplementary subject (Danish A-level).

  • Nordic entrance exams

The requirement for Danish A-level is fulfilled by Norwegians, Swedes, Finns and Icelanders by passing Danish, Swedish, Norwegian or Icelandic at an equivalent level. Faroese can fulfil the requirement for Danish A by passing Danish or Faroese at an equivalent level. Greenlanders can fulfil the requirement for Danish A by passing Danish at an equivalent level.

  • The Danish language proficiency test

is considered equivalent to the Danish A-level. The Danish language proficiency test is the final exam for Danish language education 3, module 6. It is the highest level in the Danish language education system. The Danish language proficiency test is an exam at C1 level. The Danish language proficiency test must be passed with at least a 2 in each of the three disciplines.

  • The Danish primary school leaving exam

Danish applicants with a foreign admission basis (e.g. IB) who have previously passed the Danish primary school and received a full leaving certificate, and who were raised in a Danish-speaking home, can obtain an exemption from the requirement for Danish at A-level if they submit documentation of their leaving certificate.

  • Prior learning assessment certificate with full recognition in Danish A

If you have skills that correspond to Danish A, you have the opportunity to get an Individual Competence Assessment (IKV) at a VUC.


English language requirement

For admission to the English-language bachelor's degree in General Engineering, all applicants with a foreign degree must meet the English language requirement. Even if you meet the requirement for English at B level from your foreign upper secondary education, you must still take an English test when applying for admission to General Engineering. If you have a Danish entrance exam, please note that you cannot take a language test instead of taking a supplementary course. The English language requirement can be met by documenting completion of the tests below with a test result above the minimum score.
