KEA Global is organising an introduction week for all new international lines and exchange students who are about to start in Winter 2019. This is also relevant for the Danish students from the international lines.
Here you have the chance to meet your future classmates before study start, get to know KEA campuses and services and explore a bit of the Danish culture through events and social activities.
During the week, you will participate at workshops about jobs in Denmark, you will get a Danish Crash course, go on different excursions and show your creative talent in a photo-marathon.
We will conclude the week with a competition and celebration, where drinks and snacks will be served.
The final program for the week will be available in the beginning of January.
Participation is for free, but if you register and don't show up, there will be a no-show fee of 500 DKK.
We look very much forward to meeting you and welcoming you at KEA!
