Course recommendations

The course Intercultural Management is very nice. It required a lot of interaction with the teacher. Then there is the course International Advertising. This one is very interesting as well; we had a famous teacher (John Philip Jones) A drawback was that the course was not very organized.

Personal comments

They use a different type of exams in a lot of courses. Here they often use, oral exams; I have never had that experience at my home university. It was a bit scary at first sight. However, there is a positive atmosphere at these oral exams.

My opinion of the university assessment

Exams at end of course

Exams throughout the course

Essays and/or projects at the end of course

I wish I had known...

For longer stay it is worth to know that the best way of transport in Copenhagen is biking. It's really comfortable and cheaper than public transportation, but you have to buy a used bike not a new one.

In my opinion:

Everybody loved it, you will too!

Personal recommendation

It was the most advanced in technological sense university I've ever seen. Teachers treat students as partners and are very helpful. Students have to work systematicly and work really hard, but the resuls are really good and valuable. Team working is applied to almost all courses.

Final comments

To travel around Copenhagen it is very cheap to buy 24hours ticket for Copenhagen region. You should visit for sure Frederiksberg in Hellerod - it looks like taken from the dreams and has beautiful gardens around, so the best time to go there is sunny day in Spring.

Copenhagen is a very expensive city, however costs can be kept very low if you know where to shop. The Danish people are very frindly and the women are gorgeous. Travelling throughout Europe is very easy.

Final comments

Try to break free from organized activities, although sometimes its fun, you wont see Denmark this way, and prevents you from meeting Danish people. Really work on spending time with locals, makes you see a different Denmark
