In Denmark, higher education is focused on creating solutions for the real-world. Traditional lectures are combined with industrial collaborations and teaching methods that promote students’ ability to use what they have learned and turn knowledge into innovative solutions.

This way of studying requires a high degree of personal initiative and independent thinking. Thus, for some people, studying in Denmark can be challenging at first and different from what they are used to. We feel confident that it will inspire you and help you succeed in whatever you decide to do in life.

We have more than 700 degree programmes and 1300 courses taught in English. Study for a PhD, Master’s, Bachelor’s or Academy Profession degree. You can also come as an exchange student or attend a Danish Summer School.

Denmark is located in northern Europe and is part of Scandinavia. Denmark consists of the Jutland peninsula, the larger islands of Zealand, Funen, and Lolland-Falster and 429 other named islands between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea, 72 of which are inhabited.

Nowhere in Denmark is more than 50 km from the sea. And just a few kilometers from Denmark’s major cities of Aarhus and Copenhagen you find idyllic villages and pristine woodlands and lakes. Come join us and experience the Danish lifestyle for yourself!
