Aarhus Universitet (AAU)

University of Aarhus, Paludan Müllersvej 17, 8000 Aarhus, Denmark
3.99 / 5 based on 126 reviews.
Description:
In the years just before the end of World War I plans were made for the founding of a university in Jutland. Many forces in Aarhus (from trade and industry, organizations and institutions, even the city council) fought to have the university situated in Aarhus, and it was here in 1928 that the "University Studies in Jutland" came into being.

Personal recommendation:
I recommend this University mainly because it has a high academic level and students get a good formation during their stay. But also because you learn a different education system an that is always good to broad your mind.



FINAL COMMENTS

My stay in Aahurs was positive in all the ways. I travelled through Denmark and also through Scandinavia with the scanrail because it's cheaper. Denmark is an expensive country so students going there must be aware of that and get information about the best places where to buy the basic things, like food or academic stuff. And Denmark is also a cold country! so students should bring warm clothes and be prepared for the winter. The good thing of that is that all the places are very well prepared for the cold abd the heating is high. The best way for travelling around Denmark is by train. There is a card that students can get by paying some mone, but they get the 50% of discount in all the trips they do in a year. I really recommend that card.

FINAL COMMENTS

I was a great exchage experience. I travelled around the country by train and by car, and I could visit Germany as well. I like danish people, they are helpful and they try to solve problems inmediately. I really think denamar is a fantastic country to life there. I didn't think about visiting Denmark before my Erasmus experience, but I suggest everybody to visit this small but fantastic country.

Personal recommendation:
It's not always easy for an exchange student to fond the right course to attend and most of them are in danish. So it's not easy follow the university for an exchange student who doesn't know the local language. Anyway, I have to say that people was really kind with me and some of the teacher where every time ready to help me.



FINAL COMMENTS

it has been a really great experience both at the university and in the social life.

FINAL COMMENTS

Arhus is very much a student city with vibrant night-life, sea, beach & woods. Danes & foreign students generally got on. Foreign students tended to be 'cluiqy' so I experienced Spanish/Italian/US/Japanese etc culture as much as Danish. Bring money & BOOKS & try to learn some Danish before you arrive.

this university has a special programme for the exchange students. Those ones would have a Danish course during 3 weeks coupled with other cultural activities. The university also has an organisation (IES) where international students meet each other and have fun.



FINAL COMMENTS

Denmark has a good health insurance system, so you don't have to bother about it and you will be considered as a Dane, i.e you will benefit all health insurance and the doctors' consultations are free. The libraries system is also good, you can order a book in any Danish library and you can get this book just 2-3 days after in the closest library.
