The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, Schools of Architecture, Design and Conservation (KADK) was founded in 2011 on the basis of a merger between the Academy’s School of Architecture, the Danish Design School and the Academy’s School of Conservation.
Today KADK have approx. 2,000 students on our Bachelor, Master’s, PhD and continuing education programmes. Take an in-depth look at KADK’s vibrant context, reports and KPIs.
The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts Schools of Architecture, Design and Conservation are managed by a Board, which is responsible for promoting the institution's work and defending the interests of the institution as an institution for artistic education and research.
The Board is accountable to the Minister for Education for the institution's overall business and the rules laid down for the institution.
The Rector of KADK is Lene Dammand Lund and the Vice-Rector is Svend Lawaetz.
In addition, KADK's strategic management consists of a Head of Education, a Head of Research and three academic heads from the different schools.
The Board is the top management of the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts Schools of Architecture, Design and Conservation and is responsible for promoting the institution's work and defending the interests of the institution as an institution for artistic education and research.
The Board is accountable to the Minister for Education for the institution's overall business and the rules laid down for the institution. On the basis of recommendations from the Rector, the Board determines guidelines for the institution's organisation, long-term business and development. The Board appoint and dismiss the Rector.
The composition of the Board should reflect the institution's overall tasks. The whole Board must, therefore, have access to education, research, artistic research practice, dissemination of knowledge, management, organisation, finances and the areas of employment and business, for which the institution educates its students.
We will strengthen the international and professional profiles of our graduates with an approach based on research, art and practice. We will develop a context, which promotes a link between the three domains of knowledge.
We presents the Strategy in 11 strategy packages, which, between 2013 and 2015, will strengthen our DNA - research, art and practice - and create the very best environment for the processes, which will ensure that we continue to produce graduates and generate word-class knowledge.
KADK are subject to a number of laws, contracts and political agreements. All this material is only available in Danish. You are welcome to contact us if you have questions about Laws and Conditions.
Multi-year agreements are political agreements, which establish directions and priorities for the work of institutions providing artistic education. Agreements are made for a 4-year period.
The development contract is an agreement between KADK and The Ministry of Higher Education and Science, setting the framework and developmental goals for the schools' work.
The artistic educational programmes and institutions, of which KADK are a part, are subject to a number of laws and executive orders.

Thank you once again for doing your part to keep Edarabia the most trusted education source.
I don't recommend studying at KADK if you dont speak Danish, Half of the Master studios are in English and half in Danish, however, all event at KADK and a lot of interesting lectures out of the studio are in Danish. Even my graduation ceremony was full in Danish and I couldn't understand any word, which is pretty sad. Quite old fashion.
