If politicians want to avoid major negative consequences for education and research, they should give the University of Copenhagen permission to keep one third of the places earmarked for cuts. This is according to Prorector at the University of Copenhagen (UCPH) Bente Stallknecht, after the university has drawn up a provisional plan to fulfil the terms of the relocation agreement.
Minister for Higher Education and Science Jesper Petersen praises the University of Copenhagen for its plan to set up a medical degree programme in Køge and for using graduate unemployment numbers to cut student places. He would have been happier, however, if the university had presented plans to relocate more student places.
Earthworms »squirming with pain« do not belong in the classroom, medical student Clara Turner wrote on Facebook. She got a ‘love storm’ from her fellow students, but a shitstorm from the press.
On the day of the Danish universities' deadline to report cuts and relocations of study programmes to the ministry, students demonstrated in front of parliament.
It has not yet been announced exactly which studies will be affected by the relocation agreement. We do know a few things, however, and so we offer you an overview here.

Kollegiegården is a peaceful dorm with low rent,and living there gives you access to a cheap two-bedroom apartment shortly after moving in. And the residents repaint the corridors every year
It is not pretty, but the Grønjordskollegiet is cheap, and it's huge. And with 1,000 roommates, you will always find someone you like hanging out with, no matter whether you are into parties, or Dungeons and Dragons.
The Department of Computer Science celebrates its 50th anniversary. In those 50 years, there has been an increase in the number of computers, and a small increase in the number of women. Still, the department has maintained a tightknit, small-scale spirit and has the university's only student-run canteen.
