Aarhus University (AU) Summer University

Aarhus University (AU) is an excellent choice for students interested in studying in Scandinavia. Located in the city of Aarhus (just 3 hrs from Copenhagen), AU Summer University offers over 85 courses in a breadth of areas including STEM, Management, Law, Economics, Health Sciences, and Humanities. Courses use a combination of big lectures and smaller classroom-based seminar where dialogue (often informal) between lecturer and student is not only expected but central to teaching. Most courses are followed by both Danish and international students giving students an opportunity to interact with local students on a day-to-day basis. In addition, students can bond through social programing planned by AU everyday throughout Summer University. The city of Aarhus was voted best student city in Denmark three years in a row and is one of the most liveable places on earth!
