UCPH campus
The campus of UCPH is located in Copenhagen. This is a fairly large city that opens up many opportunities for students: from cafes, restaurants and other entertainment to internships at large companies. But an urban campus can also be a disadvantage, because big city life distracts some students from their studies. During the period of study, students can use the university library, where they can do homework and write scientific papers. UCPH regularly invites foreign students to participate in exchange programs. For locals, this is a unique opportunity to get in touch with the cultures of other countries, meet representatives of different nationalities and make friends around the world.
If you want to stay in Denmark after graduation, you can apply for a job seeker visa that will allow you to live and work in the country for another 2 years. Graduates of UCPH are in demand in the labor market, as the reputation of the educational institution among employers is quite high according to the results of the QS world ranking.
