I cannot even guess how many times I have had to explain what this study programme is about (maybe 200 times over the past two years?), so I figured I might as well write an article about it.

In collaboration with four small and medium-sized Danish companies, researchers from the Department of Mechanical and Production Engineering at Aarhus University have developed productivity and sustainability monitoring equipment to improve the performance of old production machinery. This technology can have the effect that companies with old machinery will be able to stay competitive in an ever more digitalised market.

When I was looking for master’s degree programmes, I was trying to find a programme that could combine my different study interests and background.

Pandemics, war, climate change, mental health issues and cardiovascular disease: global health is threatened on many fronts. Join us at this year’s MatchPoints conference at Aarhus University on 11-13 May to explore these challenges – and help find solutions. Registration is now open.

In 1978, Denmark introduced the world’s first law on recycling, stating that at least 50% of all paper and beverage packaging should be recycled. This was the first step in a journey towards becoming amongst the top recyclers in Europe.

You have finally found a job in Denmark? Congratulations! Now comes the paperwork…

Residence permit, CPR number, MitID, NemKonto… So many words that did not mean anything to me before coming to Denmark, but that I soon had to deal with once in the country.

In collaboration with the construction industry, three engineering students are working on a massive CLT slab in a push to replace climate-intensive materials such as concrete. The aim of their experiments is to identify the dynamic properties of the deck and to understand how rigidity affects comfort and hopefully to help companies optimise processes and reduce resource wastage in the future.

While I was writing my previous blog called “Danish Films 101”, I was already thinking about making a blog about Danish TV series. As I have mentioned earlier in my film blog, Danish cinema is one of the most critically acclaimed cinemas in the world. Similarly, Danish TV series are also equally popular. Even some of them have been nominated to Emmy Awards before.

Having a Danish bank account is necessary to receive your salary, pay your rent, or be able to use Mobilepay! Finding the right one is always a bit of a struggle. To make it easier for you, we have asked our student ambassadors to share their experiences with you.
