Hi, I'm about to move to DTU to start my MSc program. Since I have never had a chance to move out of my country, I'm feeling a little anxious.

So, there are a few things I would like to ask regarding the culture and living in DTU, Copenhagen, and the Danish community.

My background is East Asian culture, and Denmark is not a familiar country to people from my country when it comes to moving or living abroad. Also, it seems like Asians are a minority there. So, is it fine to live in Denmark as an Asian person?

I wish to become more familiar with English after my two years of study. At first, I was thinking of going to an English-first-language country, but DTU offered such a good curriculum and program. I found that Denmark has a very high level of English proficiency, but I would like to ask about real-life experiences.

Do DTU students move to other countries a lot for jobs after graduation, or do they mostly stay in Denmark and Copenhagen?

Hello,

Planning the timetable.

As a first-semester student, is it hard to go through Quantitative Methods Sustainability with 30ECTS?

The school recommends 30 ECTS, and I'm thinking of adding 5 ECTS more. I'm wondering if this is a bad move as a first-semester student.

Hello,

I'm joining DTU this coming semester and wanted to ask about student jobs for master's students.

1. What kind of work do most master's students do? Campus jobs? Student internships at companies? TA/RA positions? Normal part-time jobs?
2. I went through the job search website for DTU campuses, and if a job announcement is written in Danish, does that mean international students can't apply for the job?
3. How can we apply for TA positions? Should we contact each professor directly??
