Work rules in Denmark
The number of permitted working hours and post-study options depend on immigration status and current rules. Use New to Denmark guidance rather than relying on an old general allowance.
Use institutional career support
Ask universities about internships, career services, employer partnerships and graduate outcomes for your field.
Plan beyond graduation
Graduate residence and employment routes are separate from admission. Start checking them well before student status ends.
