Programmes

SDU Microelectronics contributes to three engineering programmes in Electrical Engineering, all based at SDU’s Odense campus. The two bachelor programmes are taught in Danish; the Master’s programme is taught entirely in English.

01
BEng

Bachelor of EngineeringElectrical Engineering

  • 3½ years (7 semesters)
  • Odense campus
  • Taught in Danish
  • Includes a 6-month internship

A practice-oriented programme where you learn to develop hardware and software for advanced, intelligent solutions. You work with circuits, programming, signal processing and control engineering, and take an idea from design and analysis through testing to a finished product. Each semester has its own theme – from basic electrical engineering to cyber-physical systems and EMC – and a full semester is spent on an internship in Denmark or abroad.

02
BSc

Bachelor of Science inElectrical Engineering

  • 3 years (6 semesters)
  • Odense campus
  • Taught in Danish

Build a strong foundation in digital circuits, programming and embedded systems. You learn to design and develop advanced hardware together with the software that makes it work – the technology behind medical equipment, smart sensors, robots and energy systems. The semester themes run from basic electrical engineering through autonomous and digital systems to programmable and power systems, ending in a bachelor project.

03
MSc

Master of Science inElectrical Engineering

  • 2 years (4 semesters)
  • Odense campus
  • Taught in English
  • 40 study places

Become a specialist in advanced electronics. The programme is organised around two disciplines, embedded electronics and communication systems. Within embedded electronics you work directly with chip design, accelerated AI and hardware–software co-design – the core of what we do in SDU Microelectronics. The programme builds on a Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical Engineering – or another relevant bachelor’s degree.

Applying from outside Denmark

The two bachelor programmes are taught in Danish, so they require Danish language qualifications. The Master’s programme is taught entirely in English and is open to international applicants, with studies starting in September. Applicants from outside the EU and EEA pay tuition – current rates and deadlines are on the admission page.

Entry requirements and admission for the Master’s programme

Which programme is right for you

Bachelor of Engineering is the fastest route into an engineering job: 3½ years including a full internship semester.

Bachelor of Science is the academic route – the first three years of a five-year path, designed to continue directly into the Master’s programme.

The Master’s programme builds on either degree, is taught in English, and opens the door to a PhD.

All three programmes are built around project work in groups, with cases from companies, from the very first semester.

PhD opportunities

With a Master’s degree you can continue into a PhD at SDU Microelectronics. Our research brings together ultra-low-power and analog/mixed-signal integrated circuit design, neuromorphic and advanced computing, biomedical chips and neuroprosthetics, cryogenic CMOS, power management, and space and security applications.

After graduation

Electrical engineers with a microelectronics profile are needed wherever chips and embedded systems are designed: semiconductor and IC design companies, medical device and health technology firms, sensor and IoT companies, the space and security sector, and the automotive and energy industries. Others continue into a PhD or an industrial researcher programme.

Throughout the programmes you work in our laboratories and on cases with companies, so you build practical experience and a professional network before you graduate.
