The academic calendar at DTU

The academic year at DTU is divided into six parts:

  • Two 13-week periods starting around 1 September and 1 February, respectively. Here, you can take courses based on theoretical knowledge, project work, and exercises (laboratory work or mathematical exercises). After the 13 weeks, there will be a period without teaching activities followed by an exam period of approx. two weeks.
  • Four three-week periods in January, June, July, and August, where you typically focus on one specific topic throughout the entire period. This includes laboratory exercises, project work, and courses, including a relatively brief theoretical overview followed by a case, some practical exercises etc.
