Programme

Among the challenges are the international agenda on the environment and the crisis between industry and innovation. At the same time we are approaching a situation where the boundaries between work and leisure are blurred. We now see the dawn of new companies that employ engineers with new qualifications in the broad field of technology.How do we prepare our students for life after graduation, and what elements of interdisciplinary qualifications are necessary to incorporate into the curriculum?

Professors, teachers and administrative staff will have the option of meeting with their students at IHK while they are here, and they are invited to present their university to IHK and the Danish students.

There will be different joint arrangements throughout the week at IHK and in the beautiful city of Copenhagen.

PS. European partners may consider this option within the framework of the Erasmus LLP Programme.
