The University of Copenhagen offers UT students an excellent
opportunity to take a variety of courses alongside local students.
Specifically, this university is known for fostering independent
learning in a challenging environment. The University is ranked among
the top universities in the country and offers a diverse learning
environment in a vibrant cosmopolitan city.
Students take regular university courses with students from the host
country. Although Denmark's native language is Danish, the University
of Copenhagen offers more than 500 courses taught in English at the
bachelor's and master's levels.
Participants earn regular UT in-residence credit. All grades earned
for the courses taken are computed into the official UT Austin GPA,
