Aarhus University

Selected programme options include MSc Computer Science — published two-year, 120-ECTS route; 2027 programme structure is being revised. These are selected examples, not the full catalogue. Availability, campus, mode of study and teaching language must be checked for your intake.

A bachelor's equivalent to a Danish 180-ECTS degree. Required preparation totals at least 80 ECTS: 20 each in programming, computer systems, theoretical computer science and/or human-computer interaction, and mathematics/probability/statistics. Overseas applicants complete an academic-requirements appendix. Selection considers grades and relevant study; meeting the minimum does not guarantee a place. IELTS Academic 6.5 overall with at least 6.0 in each subscore. Approved TOEFL and Cambridge alternatives exist; PTE is not among the accepted tests. IELTS/TOEFL must be no more than two years old when the portal opens. IELTS One Skill Retake is not accepted.

For academic year 2026/27, Computer Science tuition is EUR 17,300 per full-time 60-ECTS year. It is not a whole-degree price or a confirmed 2027/28 quotation. Annual rates may change; living costs and the applicable application charge are separate. Fees are not a university-wide average. Confirm the exact course, fee year, currency, deposit, extra charges and refund conditions before paying.

The published summer calendar opens applications on 1 November. Fee-paying non-EU applicants normally apply by 15 January; the 1 March deadline is for EU applicants and eligible exempt residents. The limited winter round has separate dates and programme availability, not an automatic second intake for every applicant. The summer intake starts in August/September. Aarhus currently describes a two-year programme but plans both one- and two-year formats from 2027; final new-format details are still pending. Confirm the route in the admission offer rather than assuming the planned format is already available. A semester start date is not an application closing date. Check scholarship and visa timelines separately.
