About the University of Copenhagen
Founded in 1479, the University of Copenhagen is Denmark's oldest university and one of the country's largest research and education institutions. The university has a strong international academic environment, with research and teaching across a wide range of disciplines.
The University of Copenhagen has six faculties covering areas including health and medical sciences, science, social sciences, humanities, law and theology. It offers Bachelor's, Master's and PhD opportunities, although the availability of programmes taught in English varies by study level and programme.
Why Study at the University of Copenhagen?
The University of Copenhagen can be an option for students looking for a research-focused academic environment in Denmark. The university combines teaching with research and international collaboration across many disciplines.
International students can explore study areas such as:
Computer Science and Information Technology
Data Science and Digitalisation
Engineering and Natural Sciences

Health and Medical Sciences
Economics and Social Sciences
Business and related fields

The exact availability of English-taught programmes depends on the study level and academic year. Students should always check the individual programme page before applying.
Master's Programmes at the University of Copenhagen
The University of Copenhagen offers a wide range of Master's degree programmes. Many programmes are taught in English and are available to international applicants who meet the relevant academic requirements.
Master's programmes are offered across the university's faculties. Depending on the programme, students may find opportunities in areas such as computer science, data science, economics, international relations, public health, pharmaceutical sciences, biology, environmental studies and humanities.
Admission is programme-specific. A Bachelor's degree alone does not automatically qualify an applicant for every Master's programme, as the university may require particular courses, academic credits or subject-specific qualifications.
Bachelor's Programmes for International Students
The University of Copenhagen offers Bachelor's degree programmes, but international students should carefully check the language and admission requirements before choosing a course.
A number of Bachelor's programmes are taught in Danish, while selected programmes or components may have different language arrangements. Students from Bangladesh should therefore confirm whether their preferred Bachelor's programme is available to international applicants and whether they meet the required qualification and language criteria.
Admission Requirements
Admission requirements depend on the programme and study level.
Bachelor's Admission
Applicants must have an upper secondary qualification that is considered comparable to the Danish upper secondary education requirements, together with any programme-specific subject requirements.
Applicants with international qualifications may need to provide detailed documentation of their previous education. Some programmes can also have additional requirements or selection criteria.
Master's Admission
For Master's programmes, applicants generally need a relevant Bachelor's degree or equivalent qualification.
The University of Copenhagen evaluates whether the applicant's previous degree contains the academic content required for the selected Master's programme. Some programmes have specific requirements for particular subjects, credits or academic areas.
Meeting a general academic requirement does not necessarily guarantee admission because programmes may have limited places and additional selection criteria.
English Language Requirements
English language requirements vary according to the programme and the applicant's educational background.
Students should check the exact English language requirement listed by their chosen programme. A general IELTS or TOEFL score should not be assumed to apply to every programme.
Tuition Fees at the University of Copenhagen
Students from outside the EU/EEA and Switzerland are generally required to pay tuition fees for degree programmes unless they qualify for an exemption.
Tuition fees vary according to the programme and study level. The University of Copenhagen publishes the applicable fee information for individual programmes, so prospective students should check the current programme page before planning their budget.
In addition to tuition, international students should budget for accommodation, food, transportation, insurance, study materials and other living expenses in Denmark.
Scholarships at the University of Copenhagen
Scholarship opportunities depend on the programme and the applicant's eligibility.
For selected Master's programmes, international students from outside the EU/EEA may be considered for Danish Government scholarships. These scholarships are limited and are not available for every programme.
Where scholarships are offered, applicants should carefully review the programme-specific eligibility criteria, selection process and coverage.
Students should not assume that admission automatically includes a scholarship. Scholarship availability should always be confirmed for the chosen programme and intake.
Application Process for International Students
The application process depends on whether you are applying for a Bachelor's or Master's programme.
For a typical international application, students should:
Choose a suitable programme.
Review the academic and language requirements.
Check the application deadline.
Prepare certificates, transcripts and other required documents.
Complete the online application.
Pay any applicable application fee.
Submit all required documentation before the deadline.
Monitor the application portal and email for updates.
If admitted, follow the university's instructions for enrolment and tuition payment.
Complete the relevant Danish residence permit process if required.
The exact procedure and deadlines can vary by programme, so applicants should follow the official instructions for their selected course.
Application Deadlines
University of Copenhagen deadlines vary depending on the study level, programme and applicant category.
For Master's programmes, international applicants from outside the EU/EEA generally need to apply well in advance of the academic year. Some programmes have a single annual intake, while others may have different arrangements.
Applicants should check the current deadline directly on their chosen programme page before preparing their application.
Student Life in Copenhagen
Copenhagen is Denmark's capital and an international city with a large student population. Students at the University of Copenhagen have access to libraries, research facilities, student organisations, academic communities and various cultural activities.
The university's campuses are spread across different parts of Copenhagen and the surrounding area, depending on the faculty and programme.
Living in Copenhagen can be more expensive than living in smaller Danish cities, so international students should prepare a realistic budget for accommodation and everyday expenses.
