Study using CDIO and PBL methods, and significant student awards
DTU has also implemented the following international teaching methods independently:

These methods have been extremely successful in many developed countries around the world and enable students to approach their subjects with a liking for them, become more proactive in their studies and gain both a basic and in-depth knowledge of their majors. In addition, students refine their English and related soft skills, such as communications, teamwork, problem-solving, time management and presentations abilities.
