Welcome Day and Intro Day

During the Welcome Day, you will meet fellow students, see the campus, and be introduced to your field of study. After the Welcome Day, there will be an Intro Day, where you and your fellow students will have time to get to know each other better, get more information about DTU as a university, and be introduced to everything.

Welcome Day

On Thursday, 29 August 2024, from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m., DTU invites all newly admitted students to a Welcome Day. The purpose of the Welcome Day is to introduce you to the campus, your study programme, and your fellow students.

During the day, there are many fun, academic, and social activities where you get a chance to cooperate and think creatively. You also get to know your fellow students better.

All new students are officially welcomed to DTU by President Anders Bjarklev, Dean of Undergraduate Studies Lars Christoffersen, and President of DTU’s student association, Polyteknisk Forening.

The Welcome Day is organized in cooperation between DTU, students who volunteer to be part of the study start (they are called Vectors), Heads of studies and first semester lecturers.  

Intro Day

In continuation of the Welcome Day, DTU holds an intro Day on 30 August 2024.

The Intro Day allow you to meet new students from your field of study as well as new students from other fields of study. The programmes contain a combination of academic and social activities that introduce you to your study programmes and your fellow students.

We look forward to seeing you!
