The Engineering College of Aarhus (Ingeniørhøjskolen i Århus, IHA) supports its education through an LMS.

The Engineering College of Aarhus sees the continuation of an excellent industry-related engineering education in Denmark as its principal goal:

We are systematically working on creating professional engineers capable of thinking for themselves; we are increasing and strengthening our cooperation with the industrial sector through engineering training and our new industry-related laboratories.

The Engineering College of Aarhus main office is in Århus (/ Aarhus), Denmark.

The Engineering College has app. 1500 students, app 160 employees and in 2007 a turnover of app. 112 mil. DKK (15 mil. Euro).

"The terms E-learning, blended or distance learning are not discussed on the Teaching Methods page but e-learning is mentioned once on the site: “In the future we will focus on the institutions that provide us with the largest potential regarding development and exchange. Furthermore, we will develop a close, committed cooperation with a smaller group on international industry-related projects, study programmes, e-learning and longer periods of teacher exchange, including post-educational courses.” Source: Mission, Vision and Strategies below the title “Under Cooperation within Development”.

IHA has its own LMS called CampusNet:

CampusNet is a web based interactive communication tool. It offers staff and students at the Engineering College of Aarhus easy and flexible access to extensive information relevant for the studies, and the possibility to exchange information and documents mutually, e.g. within the course or the department.

Information contained in CampusNet originates from many different sources (students, teachers, administration) but are made accessible through one central website. Each user at the Engineering College is assigned specific rights assuring a personified user interface.

  • Each student will find information on his or her study, on courses attended, material or messages from the teacher, lists of other students, possible cancellations and much more.
  • The teacher can find information on students, submit messages and publish teaching material for the students, set up conferences for discussions, link to any other website and much more.
