Danish at the university

Learn Danish at your educational institution

Learn Danish while attending an academic or professional educational institution where IA Sprog provides Danish lessons for international students and staff.

IA Sprog has formed partnership with CIP on Danish language courses at Copenhagen University

Since July IA Sprog has formed a partnership with CIP (Centre for Internationalisation and Parallel Language Use) at Copenhagen University. Now CIP offers Danskuddannelse 3/Danish Language Course 3 to university staff and international students.

Danish for knowledge workers at CIP focus on highly educated people who typically work at universities or other institutions of higher education and research. Learn more about Danish for knowledge workers.

Danish for university students is designed to provide you with study-related Danish language, relevant to university students or other students on a higher education programme. Learn more about Danish for students.

The Danish lessons takes place Monday-Thursday late afternoon at different campuses of the University of Copenhagen.

For questions regarding the Danish courses at CIP, please contact at e-mail: danishcourses@hum.ku.dk or by phone: (+45) 35 32 86 39.

The lessons take place at the institution you attend and at times that suit your schedule; the goal is to help you incorporate Danish language lessons into your overall academic activities and your work, if you are employed.

Classes are held once a week, and you are also welcome to participate in workshops on campus. In addition, you will have access to the largest online learning platform in Denmark.

The lessons programme adheres to the goals and structure of Act on Danish Language Courses for adult foreigners and Danish Language Course 3.

The weekly class focuses on verbal communication, pronunciation and grammar. You will quickly acquire basic Danish language skills to navigate at university and at work. Using brief, authentic texts, you will learn about Danish society and culture, including workplace culture. In addition, you will learn how to read and write brief emails.

If you continue on to intermediate/ advanced level, you will receive in-depth lessons in Danish language and society that will allow you to participate in discussions about current events both in person and in writing.

As a language center we are obliged to charge a deposit – read more and pay deposit here.
