The Physics and Technology master programme in Acoustics and Signal Processing is aimed at students who want to create the products and technologies of the future as researchers or developers.
Academic profile in Acoustics and Signal Processing
An academic profile in Acoustics and Signal Processing will provide graduates with a broad spectrum of competencies in the following fields: electroacoustics, environmental noise, room acoustics, acoustic modelling tools, ultrasound, vibrations, signal processing and hearing aids. These competencies qualify you for work in, for example, the world-leading Danish acoustics industry. Read more about the academic profile in Acoustics and Signal Processing.
Project based and research based study environment
You become part of a project based and problem based study environment where you work in project groups. You and your fellow students are responsible for planning and carrying out the project and for meeting the deadlines. Usually we receive the project outlines from companies and we emphasise that the problems you solve are real world problems. Learn more from the students themselves.
Many different career options
With a degree in Physics and Technology you will have a range of job opportunities in Denmark and abroad. Among other things, you could work as a researcher or developer in the sound equipment industry or in other high-technology companies.
It is also possible to continue on a three-year research programme which will lead to a PhD degree. Another option is to study an industrial research programme which is carried out in close cooperation with a company where you are employed.
Graduates who have completed this master programme are entitled to use the title of Master of Science (MSc) in Engineering (Physics and Technology).
This is a two-year master programme on top of a three-year bachelor programme. To study a master programme in Acoustics and Signal Processing you must have a relevant bachelor degree.
Acoustics and Signal Processing is one of two possible specialisations within the field of Physics and Technology (the other being Optics, Sensors and Nanotechnology)
Seventh semester
The first semester of the master programme is a common semester for all master students in Physics and Technology. You will work theoretically and experimentally with sensor technology, stochastic signal processing, and mechanical vibrations as well as further develop your theoretical skills in numerical mathematics. This will provide all students with a common and broad foundation which qualifies them for many different jobs, regardless of their academic profile. Moreover, the fact that you do not have to choose an academic profile for the first semester provides you with a basis on which to make a qualified decision as to which profile you should choose.
Eight and ninth semester
The next two semesters you will specialise in your chosen academic profile: Acoustics and Signal Processing or Optics, Sensors and Nanotechnology.
Tenth semester
The last semester is dedicated to the master thesis. You will choose the subject yourself. The master thesis will typically be carried out in one of the research groups and/or in cooperation with an industrial company.

Options for full-degree graduate students:
Danish Government Scholarship Ministry of Science, Innovation and Higher EducationThe Danish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Higher Education has launched a scholarship programme for students from non-EU/EEA countries studying a full degree at graduate level. Scholarships and tuition fee waivers are available for highly talented students who have been admitted to a range of programmes.

The board of the University of Southern Denmark decides from year to year which study programmes will benefit from the scholarships and the University will recommend the most qualified applicants in these programmes for a scholarship. Therefore it is not possible to apply for this scholarship. If you are a non-EU student and applying for a programme which offers this scholarship you will automatically be considered for it.
BHJ Scholarship
Only available for students applying for a master programme at our Sønderborg Campus
Six one-year scholarships are issued pr. year: three for studies within the technical field i.e. Mechatronics and Innovation & Business respectively, and three are for studies within the field of business administration i.e. Business Relationship Management.
A scholarship of DKK 40.000 may be granted if and when the requirements are met. It is paid in two instalments of DKK 20.000 per semester. The scholarship grant depends on acceptance and enrolment as a full-time student in one of the above mentioned programmes.
