Michael Benedict Thulstrup

Position: Senior Project Director at MT Højgaard Danmark
Technical University of Denmark (DTU) - MSc, Construction

I have 30+ years of experience within the construction industry from large contractors both danish and international companies on large heavy civil projects. Within my work experience, approx. 12 year has been on international projects situated abroad.

Some of my work has consisted of project management, working with concrete structures, fabrication of steel structures, immersed tunnel work, and more.

I hold a Master of Science in Construction from DTU and am currently serving as a Project Director at MT Højgaard Danmark, working on the Nordhavnstunnel Project connecting Østerbro with Nordhavn.

Motivation

I find it interesting and awarding to be able to help young students with their direction – maybe/possibly by sharing my own professional way. I have for many years had students at work for their 6 months intern period and have many times been impressed by their technical level and high level of enthusiasm.
