Collaboration

Is your company, public authority or organisation interested in collaborating with leading researchers and students? Do you wish to design and develop products, or do you need expert input from skilled researchers?

At The University of Copenhagen (UCPH), we are keen to collaborate with a wide range of partners on research, education and the dissemination of knowledge. It can take the form of research and development projects, teaching programmes, work placements, industry-based master’s theses and industrial PhD schemes, amongst other things.

Public-sector services

At IFRO, we provide research based consultancy on economic issues relating to, amongst other things, food, agriculture, forestry, fisheries, nature and the environment.

This consultancy forms an integral part of the institute’s communication strategy and takes the form of, amongst other things, written reports and participation in committees and working groups.

How can you collaborate with students?

Our students often undertake projects as part of their degree programmes. In these, they collaborate with a company, public authority or organisation and help to solve specific practical challenges.

Students can offer general academic support and bring specific skills from their respective degree programmes. The University of Copenhagen’s portal for student jobs also enables the promotion of student jobs and positions for graduates.
