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.
