Overview

Technologies for monitoring and mapping Earth and exploring the universe play a prominent role in our everyday lives. Without these technologies, we would not have GPS navigation in cars, reliable weather forecasts, global climate and environmental monitoring, or global telecommunication.

The programme in Earth and Space Physics and Engineering at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) focuses on developing, designing, and applying innovative and advanced technological solutions for monitoring, mapping, modelling, and predicting large-scale physical structures and processes—i.e. on Earth, the solar system, and the universe.

Career

With a MSc Eng degree in Earth and Space Physics and Engineering, you will be eligible for positions in Danish and international companies engaged in design, development, and application of instrumentation, observation techniques, models, methods, monitoring systems, services, and decision-support tools—especially in areas such as environmental and climate monitoring, mapping, and navigation as well as Earth and space exploration.

Other requirements

General requirements

Applicants with other BSc Engs from DTU and other BSc Engs and BScs in Natural Sciences from Danish or international universities may also be admitted to the programme, based on an individual assessment.

Applicants should possess good qualifications in basic mathematics and physics, including electromagnetics, thermodynamics, astrophysics, geophysics, basic electric circuit theory, as well as numerical methods and programming.
BScs in Oceanography from the University of the Faroe Islands can be admitted but must expect to upgrade their knowledge of basic electric circuit theory in the first semester.
The specific academic requirements for the MSc courses can be found in DTU's course database, and it is the individual student's responsibility to ensure that these requirements are met.
