With over 40,000 students and more than 9,000 employees, the University of Copenhagen is the largest institution of research and education in Denmark. The purpose of the University – to quote the University Statute – is to ’conduct research and provide further education to the highest academic level’.
Approximately one hundred different institutes, departments, laboratories, centres, museums, etc., form the nucleus of the University, where professors, lecturers and other academic staff, as well as most of the technical and administrative personnel, carry out their daily work, and where teaching takes place.
These activities take place in various environments ranging from the plant world of the Botanical Gardens, through high-technology laboratories and auditoriums, to the historic buildings and lecture rooms of Frue Plads and other locations.

Thank you once again for doing your part to keep Edarabia the most trusted education source.
It hurts me that a University of such prestige has received a fugitive from the Spanish Justice as a lecturer. He has made several very serious crimes to declare a false independence with more than 53% of the Catalan people against it. Mr. Puigdemont faces charges of sedition, rebellion embezzlement. At least 40 years in prison await him. The Danish University is a reference for the world so it should not take criminals to their classrooms. It is a bad example for Europe, Denmark and Spain.

I think it's a wonderful city with a nice university and good installations. Some classrooms might be better than others, but I definitely recommend coming here. The weather is not great but come on, this is the happiest city in the world! :-)

If you are deciding to do a study exchange here, please be warned there are some highly rasist professors on their board. Specifically, I went to ask the professor about a paper on talent acquisition in the HR Management class, and the professor nonchalantly told a 19-year old me he heard people from my country are the biggest communists (?), I guess expecting some sort of reaction from me, but I just stared at him confused in silence as my country had communists before I was even born and people faught a war to change that regime. Not sure how comments like that have any place at a University setting anyway. Later, when discussing rates of 'continuing education in Europe', he said there 'is probably a mistake in the numbers', when my country came up as high as Holland or Denmark. It's a bit insane you let people like that teach, and especially HR Management. I have studied in a number of countries but have never come across something like this.
