So for my master's final project, I've decided I wanted to create a 3D model (Digital Elevation Model) of a coastal area in my country, with the use of a drone. Can ArcGIS Pro (without extensions like: sitescan, drone2map etc) process the drone data on its own, and create the models?

What I currently have:

- ArcGIS Pro (student license)

- Access to a DJI Mavic

Generate elevation data using the DEMs wizard—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation

for basics

More importantly, your student license if associated with a university/college should provide access to a wide variety of extensions, like the Spatial Analyst, 3D analyst etc, which should give your more opportunities to expand what you need to use


... sort of retired...

ArcGIS Pro with Advanced license has ortho mapping https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/data/imagery/ortho-mapping-in-arcgis-pro.htm.  This is in the same section as the help Dan pointed you to, but the ortho mapping workflow (using the ribbon wizard) is very simple.  

I don't actually know if your Student license enables this - try going to the imagery tab and on far left hit "create workspace"...
