An eight-week program in Danish language and culture is designed for American exchange students and is offered free of charge to students currently participating in an exchange program. Its capital city of Copenhagen, in contrast to the pristine countryside which surrounds it, is characterized by the gaiety of Tivoli and the dynamism of the jazz and club scene.
Students directly enroll in courses at their host university.
Because most BC students choose courses taught in English, classmates include significant numbers of visiting students, primarily European, in addition to Danish university students. BC students take at least one course focusing on Danish language or Danish society and culture. Course descriptions are available at the host university's internet site. Visiting students are matched with student mentors who help with practical issues of orientation and integration. Service Opportunities Students interested in community service in Copenhagen may wish to work with Greenpeace on environmental issues or with refugees from the former Yugoslavia.
