• BSc in Robot Systems from SDU - gives you a legal claim for admission
• BEng in Engineering (Robot Systems) from SDU provided that the you have passed the following as electives or supplementary courses:
  • Numerical Methods (RD-NUM4), 5 ECTS
  • One of the following courses:
    • Multivariate mathematics for roboticists (RD-MMR), 5 ECTS
    • Modelling and Simulation of Electrical and Electromechanical Dynamic Systems (E-MSDS ) - (Summer School), 5 ECTS
    • Deep Learning (DM568) - (Summer School) 5 ECTS
      
      

Do you hold a similar degree?

You can apply if you hold a similar, relevant degree in Science or Engineering. To be considered, your degree must include a minimum of: 

• 20 ECTS Software development and programming (e.g., software design, software engineering, algorithms, data structures, object-oriented programming) (independent of programming language) 
• 20 ECTS Mathematics (e.g. calculus, linear algebra, statistics, numerical methods)
• 15 ECTS in analogue and digital electronics and embedded programming
• 5 ECTS in Physics
• 10 ECTS in Signal processing and control
• 5 ECTS in Robotics related topics (e.g. artificial intelligence or machine learning)

As part of your application, you must fill out a self-assessment form. You must list the relevant courses from your Bachelor's degree with regards to each of the required subject areas as listed below. Upload the form to the application portal when you submit your application. Self-assessment form (.pdf)
