You find the programmes for your introduction days here.
Your introduction (AU Introduction Days) at Aarhus University consists of two parts. One part is hosted by the International Centre (International Centre's intro days), and the other part is hosted by the faculty (Faculty Day).
The AU Intro Days programme will allow you to make use of the extended opening hours of the International Centre and Housing Office to register and collect keys.
Please note that regardless of the starting date in the housing contract, you should make sure to arrange accommodation so you are able to participate in the AU Intro Days.
The courses in our Master degree programmes are planned in cooperation with the Heads of degree programme, who is responsible for the specific degree programme. Therefore, you have to contact your Head of degree programme (who you find under 'Contact and Study Service ST' in the menu (in Danish only))
Your individual study programme (Master's contract) can be discussed and agreed upon at your arrival within the first week – but if you contact your Head of degree programme beforehand, you will be able to sign up for courses even before your arrival.
Before you contact the Head of degree programme, please look at our Master's student guide to get an overview of your degree programme. Here you will find information about specialisations within each programme and which courses you can choose from.
You put together a programme consisting of compulsory courses, if applicable, and elective courses, so your give your Master’s degree the direction and academic profile you want.
Please look at our Course Catalogue to find relevant courses within your field and important information such as courses, teachers, ECTS-value, prerequisites, qualifications and more.
You must have an approved Master's contract before starting your degree programme.
If you have a Bachelor's degree from another university, you cannot complete the Master's contract until you have been admitted to your degree programme and have a log-in to the system.
You fill in your Master's contract via the online contract generator
The Master’s contract can be amended on an ongoing basis subject to agreement with the Head of degree programme.
The degree overview in the self-service facility continues to show the courses you have passed and your examination registrations.
Once your Master's contract has been approved, write an email to your programme coordinator with the courses you would like to enroll in.
You will find a list of programme coordinators in the tab on the left under 'Contact and Study Service' > 'Programme coordinators'
