With the academic and personal growth and intercultural competence gained through your experience with DIS, you will be well prepared for the global job market of tomorrow. European immersion is strengthened by the cross-cultural experience of living with a Danish family, a Danish roommate, or with Danish students in a 'kollegium' (residence hall). In addition, the DIS curriculum includes courses which cannot be studied elsewhere, or which can be better studied in Copenhagen due to the academic and cultural resources available.
