Two-year AP Degree Programmes
Academy Profession (AP) Degree Programmes are short cycle higher education programmes offered at Academies of Professional Higher Education (Business and Technical Academies) throughout Denmark.
AP Programmes provide students with analytical and professional skills, and the programmes combine theory and practical application relevant for employment in business and industry. At the same time AP Degree Programmes qualify graduates for further studies at universities.
All AP Degree Programmes are designed in close collaboration with representatives from relevant sectors of business and industry to ensure appropriate competence profiles of the graduates.
Academies have fewer students than universities since they offer a limited number of professional higher education programmes, facilitating close contact between students and companies in the region. Academies are located in towns of varying sizes throughout the country.
Admission requirements
Admission requires qualifications comparable to a Danish upper secondary school leaving certificate (generally 12-13 years of education). In addition institutions require proficiency in English based on test scores in TOEFL or IELTS.
Quality assurance
All programmes are approved by the Danish Ministry of Education. The overall objectives and content of a programme will be the same at each of the Academies that offer a particular programme.
