Universities in European countries

In Denmark you can choose from five types of higher education institutions:

• universities (universiteter) – general and specialised, research-based, teaching at all levels up to the doctorate,
• university colleges (professionshøjskoler) – professional bachelor's programmes, e.g. for future teachers, nurses and engineers,
• business academies (erhvervsakademier) – shorter, practical programmes and applied degrees,
• maritime education institutions – training for the shipping industry,
• arts institutions – art, architecture, design and music.

There is plenty on offer in English: according to the European Commission's portal, more than 500 programmes are taught entirely in English.
