DENMARK


 Why study in Denmark
  • Denmark is a one country from Europe especially the Nordic region has become popular for the past several years. And the country we are talking about is:
  • The happiest place in the world
  •  The second most peaceful country in the world (based on standards of health, welfare, and education)
  • The least corrupted country in the world
  •  The highest level of income equality in the world
  • ·Making the choice to study in Denmark is easy. There are plenty of opportunities for international students and researchers. The Danish higher education institutions are internationally oriented and offer a large selection of programmes and individual courses in English.
In a four part series beginning today I shall talk about education in Denmark, higher education and courses offered in English, Denmark's economy, job opportunities and green card scheme (Newly started) and studying business in Denmark's second oldest Aarhus Business School.

Denmark has several universities; the largest and oldest are the University of Copenhagen (founded 1479) and University of Aarhus (founded 1928).

What makes education in Denmark special?

An academic tradition combining excellence with an innovative culture for both teaching and research; a typical class consisting of lectures as well as discussions in small groups, internationally oriented wide variety of programmes (in English), an open minded population with global outlook, institutions of higher education collaborating with business life and research institutions -- all this and much more creates an enriching learning environment. And that makes studies in Denmark a truly world class experience.
The results of a recent survey on international students in Denmark showed that students enjoy their stay in Denmark, because they feel it is a safe place to live.


Of the 2,800 international students surveyed

  •  92 per cent would recommend studying in Denmark to other student
  • 75 per cent are considering staying in Denmark to work
  • 82 per cent think Denmark is a safe country#
  • Survey conducted by CIRIUS, 2006 (based on standards of health, welfare, and education)

Special introduction for international students

As mentioned above, international students have many pleasant surprises in store for them in Denmark. A lot of institutions have a buddy system in practice wherein they send a buddy to meet you on arrival. they will help you get settled, meet other students and deal with practical matters in your first weeks in Denmark.
Institutions also organize special orientation programmes and short-term courses in Danish language and culture during the same. 

These programmes and the courses provide international students with another opportunity to familiarize them with their host country and meet other international and European Students students. 

Tuition Fees:
 Higher education in Denmark is usually provided free of charge for all EU/EEA students and for students who are participating in an exchange programme.
Exempted from payment of tuition fees are also:
  • students with a permanent residence permit (danish: "Permanent opholdstilladelse")
  • students with a temporary residence permit with the possibility of achieving a permanent residence permit (danish: "Midlertidig opholdstilladelse mmf varigt ophold").
  • children of workers from non-EU/EEA countries
All other students have to pay a tuition fee. Annual tuition fees for full-time degree students range from 6,000 to 16,000 Euro. 
Scholarships in Denmark:
Scholarships for students from outside the EU/EEA for studies at Academies of Professional Higher Education and University Colleges are administered by the individual institutions.
The scholarships can be given as full or partial tuition fee waivers and/or grants towards covering your living costs. However, as the scholarships are administered by the individual institution, you should enquire about the details at the institution you are interested in studying at.
What is The Danish Ministry of Education Scholarship Scheme? 
Denmark warmly welcomes highly qualified and motivated students from all over the world. A number of scholarships are therefore offered each year by the Danish Ministry of Education to fund students from countries outside the European Union/ European Economic Area. The scholarships can be awarded for a full degree programme or for part of a degree programme at undergraduate level. 
  Who can apply for a scholarship?   
In order to be eligible to apply for a scholarship you have to be:
  • A citizen of a country outside the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA).
  • Permanently resident in a non-EU/EEA country.
  • Studying in Denmark outside any established exchange programme or another kind of agreement, which waives your tuition fee.
  What kind of financial support can I apply for? 
The amount may vary between institutions. 
  How and when do I apply?    
If you would like to apply for a scholarship, we would strongly recommend you do the following:

  1. Contact the institution which offers the specific study programme you are interested in. The institution will then provide you with the application form. The institution can also inform you about entry requirements, course descriptions, deadlines and student services.
  2. Apply for a residence permit. Read the instructions below.
