Contemporary Denmark has been recognized worldwide for advancements in design and technology, as well as for progressive cultural and social policies. Understanding the Danes and Danish culture is key to understanding Danish innovations and solutions to the challenges of the 21st Century.
Working with the foundation, the University of Washington department of Scandinavian Studies has developed the Copenhagen Classroom Program. This 12-credit, interdisciplinary, intensive four-week course. Students live and study for the month of August in Copenhagen, Denmark.
The Copenhagen Classroom program was established in 2006 with the first University of Washington student group studied in Copenhagen
for the month of August 2006. Simultaneously with the interdisciplinary program, students participate in a 3-week intensive Danish language course taught by Danish faculty at the University of Copenhagen.
