The
Denmark International Study (DIS) Program offers students a rich educational
and cross-cultural study abroad experience in the heart of Copenhagen, the capital
of Denmark. Students have the chance not only to "see," but to discover and
understand a Europe in flux through their courses and study tours to cities
at the center of the changes: Berlin, Prague, Luxembourg, Stockholm, Helsinki,
Amsterdam, Moscow, and St. Petersburg.
Copenhagen, Denmark's capital, is a European capital city in every sense of the word. The history of Copenhagen goes back more than 800 years, and every period has left its mark on it. It is the seat of Parliament and government, the center of the country's economic, scientific and cultural life, and has everything to offer in terms of music, entertainment, and nightlife. It is a modern city of one and a half million inhabitants, yet it still has a relaxed and welcoming small-town atmosphere that is rare among big cities.
