Research Programs for Graduate Exchange Students
Research for master students
As a graduate exchange student at the Faculty of Engineering you are not limited to following courses. You can join one of the many research programs who accepts students to participate in ongoing research. The period can be flexible, and you will earn ECTS credits depending on the length of your stay. It is possible to follow a few courses at the same time. To be accepted you will need to be nominated by your home university prior to your application.
”As I am a master student, I am quite used to lectures; five years of higher education crave for practice! More droplets of theory in a full glass of water do not cause an effect – but being challenged with a research project at SDU is a completely different story.
Multidisciplinary research programs
Many of the research programs are multidisciplinary and accept students with various study backgrounds Please follow the links below for more information about each program:
- Nanophotonics, Nanofabrication and Advanced Imaging/Characterization
