Exchange Programme
The Department of Economics offers English taught courses on undergraduate and graduate level.
Prerequisites
Almost all our courses require a high competency of economic theory, mathematics and econometrics. Please follow the previous links in order to fully understand the academic level we expect from our Master's students. You are not qualified for a 3rd year undergraduate course or a master's level course with a background in eg. "Econ 101" only!
However, we do have courses that do not require the above mentioned competences - please follow the links below for a complete overview of these:
Choosing courses
When choosing our Master's courses as an exchange student, you need to read the prerequisites of each course and consider carefully whether you meet the requirements or not. Please be honest to yourself - the courses are more than just some interesting titles! You need to read the course descriptions thoroughly and take the stated lists of prerequisites very serious!
Do not choose more than four courses in one semester without counseling from us first.
As an Erasmus-student using an exchange agreement with the Department of Economics, you are obliged to attend a minimum of 22,5 ECTS at the Department.
For you to get the most out of your studies at the University of Copenhagen, we recommend that you have completed at least two years of full-time studies at your home university.
