Many automation programs are created with the goal of introducing students to the engineering and technical principles necessary to design autonomous systems. For example, students might expect to become familiar with mechanical product design or the application of mechatronics technology.

Denmark's higher education puts emphasis on a technical higher education through the university learning. Most of the Danish universities also offers quality international students culture due to its relaxed Scandinavian attitude.

The MSc, or Master of Science, is an internationally recognized academic degree that indicates proficiency and knowledge of a given topic or field. Most MSc programs take about four years to finish, after which some join the workforce while others continue on in the classroom.
