Five students from Aarhus University will soon be venturing out into the world to expand their academic, social and cultural horizons. One of them is Mark, who is studying civil and architectural engineering, specialising in energy and indoor climate.

The biggest day of the year has dawned for hundreds of new engineering students starting the first day on their new degree programmes at Aarhus University. “It’s a landmark day on which it’s crucial to remember the key role of student advisers," says the director of studies.

This year, AU Engineering has offered study places on engineering programmes to 1,092 applicants. This is an increase of 19% compared to 2019.
