There are many high-quality universities in Denmark, some of which occupy a place in Europe and even the world. For example, the University of Copenhagen is a world-famous university with a history of more than 500 years. In the academic rankings of Shanghai Jiaotong University in the last two years, the University of Copenhagen has been ranked in the top 30 in the world. Others, such as Aarhus University, are also world famous schools. In the academic ranking of world universities of Shanghai Jiaotong University, Aarhus University always ranks among the best in the world with 100. In addition, data transfer unit, Aalborg University and the University of Southern Denmark are also famous universities in Europe and the world, and they are often ranked in the top 200 in the world rankings.

In addition, it should be emphasized that although Denmark is a developed country in Europe and has world-renowned universities, the cost of studying in Denmark is relatively low. First of all, the tuition is low. Denmark is a country with a sound social security and welfare system. Universities are heavily subsidized by the government, and the tuition fees are mostly between RMB 80 million and RMB 65,438+10,000. Compared with countries such as Britain, America and Australia, this level of tuition is still relatively low. Secondly, the cost of living in Denmark is relatively low, and it is enough to spend 60,000-80,000 RMB a year, including housing.
Advantages of studying in Denmark
Denmark is one of the most developed countries in the world.
The per capita income is 30,000-40,000 US dollars (the latest per capita income ranks second in Norway, third in Sweden and fifth in Denmark, far higher than that in developed countries such as Britain, France and Germany), and the social welfare is high. The natural environment is good and the air is fresh. Denmark is not as cold as people think, and the climate in most areas is similar to that in China. Most importantly, the visa for studying in Denmark is easy, the tuition is low, the requirements are low, and the teaching quality is high, which is very suitable for China students.
2. International learning environment
Many universities have English-teaching majors, which saves students the stage of learning local languages before and after going abroad, and saves time and expenses for studying abroad. As long as China students take the TOEFL or IELTS test and meet the Danish requirements, they don't need additional language tests. There is a good international teaching atmosphere, especially the language environment, and the quality of education is very high.
3. The cost of living is relatively low
Denmark is famous for its good social welfare system. The average annual living expenses are about 60,000-80,000 RMB (including accommodation, catering, transportation and books). This is obviously much cheaper than studying in countries such as Britain and the United States.
4. The visa pass rate is high
As long as there is an invitation letter or admission notice from a Danish university, the probability of rejection is very small.
5. Low crime rate
Compared with other countries in Europe and America, Denmark has a very low crime rate, which is one of the lowest in the world. Danish society is stable, public security is good, and local residents are warm and friendly to people. Therefore, living in Denmark will be easier and more free.
6. The working conditions are relaxed and the treatment is generous.
In the first year of studying in Denmark, students can legally work during the holidays. I have lived 18 months, and I can still work 18 hours a week. The minimum wage in Denmark is 70 yuan RMB/hour.
7. Schengen countries do not need a visa to travel to continental Europe.
Denmark belongs to the Schengen agreement countries in Europe. As long as you get a visa to study in Denmark, you can enter and leave more than 20 countries in continental Europe, such as Germany, France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Spain and Greece. There is no visa.
Living expenses of studying in Denmark
1. Residence
Danish universities basically do not provide on-campus dormitories, so they can choose to rent a house or apply for a host family. Of course, there are differences in prices between different cities, so your part of the expenses should be prepared according to the city where your school is located.
If you rent a house, if the city is relatively large, the monthly rent is about 5,000 yuan, and the medium-sized city is about 4,000 yuan a month; However, for families that provide boarding, the difference is not great. Generally, it costs 5000 yuan to live alone for a month, and if you need catering service, you need to pay extra.
Step 2 feed
If you want to save trouble, you can go directly to the canteen to eat. The price of the finished package is generally around 30 yuan, and a maximum of 100 yuan per day is enough. The canteen will be safe, so you don't have to worry about hygiene and clean it yourself.
If you are going to cook by yourself, you must know the price first. Noodles and bread are staple foods, about 1kg 10 yuan, potatoes 1kg 5 yuan, beef 1kg60 yuan, and various common vegetables 1kg 10 yuan, so that everyone can buy ingredients/kloc-0 a month.
travel
The ways you can choose for daily travel are basically the same as those in China. Subway and bus are more suitable for students. If you buy a ticket directly, you need to buy it in two districts, probably around 20 yuan, so it is convenient to get a card that can be exchanged.
According to the general choice of student accommodation, it will be around the school, and the distance will not be particularly far, so it is basically enough to prepare for 400 yuan in one month. Of course, if you live near the school, you can walk to and from class.
go shopping
Finally, the shopping budget, although it will be affected by the consumption level, but the basic expenses are the same for everyone, daily necessities need to be purchased regularly, and this part needs about 500 yuan a month.
Other expenses include buying clothes and socializing. There is a difference in price and frequency. For most students, they will consider saving money, so a monthly budget of 2,000 yuan is generally enough.
