Our opening hours are: Monday-Thursday: 08.00-15.00; Friday: 08.00-14.00. It\u00b4s a little bit difficult to extend the opening hours, since our work hours are 07.00-15.00. However, the canteen at the department of sport sciences is open until 20.00 every day,\u201d says Eric Burstr\u00f8m, chef at the H.C. \u00d8rsted Institute&#8217;s canteen.<\/p>\n<p>universitypost@adm.ku.dk<\/p>\n<p><em>Like us on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/UniversityPost\" target=\"_blank\"> Facebook <\/a> for features, guides and tips on upcoming events.
