Study at Business Academy Aarhus, School of Applied Sciences

We prioritise excellent study facilities on all our campuses. So we provide plenty of places to sit and study - either alone or with your group.

We have comfortable seats, couches and actual group rooms all around our campusses - eg. in the huge canteen area, the library, Basement as well as all the niches in the hallways. And during the peak season of project work, the Academy buzzes with hard-working students.

You have access to the Academy 24 hours a day using your student card (while you are studying at the Academy). 

Student and Career Counselling at Business Academy Aarhus can help you with information about our programmes and we will be your sparring partner throughout your studies.

Our goal is that you choose the right programme and complete your studies successfully.

From the start to the finish of your programme, you are welcome to come to the Student and Career Counselling for either individual counselling or courses for groups of students. 

You’ll get help with creating an overview of your internship and career opportunities as well as concrete tools to help you achieve your goals. They offer, among other things, courses in writing good applications and CVs – and will help you practice for internship and job interviews.

The library is above the canteen area at Sønderhøj 30. The library offers a wide range of books, journals and magazines, papers and online subscriptions.  In addition to this, the librarians teach data collection and information searches which will be needed for your projects.

You will need your student and access card to borrow books etc. from the library.

The bookshop, FACTUM Books, is also at our Sønderhøj 30 campus - next to the library on the first floor. You will primarily find non-fiction on the shelves, and you can buy office supplies such as files, folders and wrapping paper etc.

All the Academy's branded clothing can also be bought here.

You can get a 10 percent discount on most books if you are a student. Material that is not in-stock can usually be ordered for you.

Basement is the place to go to enjoy a coffee, drink a beer or soda with your fellow students, or just use the facilities as a quiet study area during the week. There is a wide selection of refreshments at student-friendly prices, and a comfortable lounge area to study, hang out or just play something! From board games and PlayStation to beer pong and dice games. The “after school” bar is open from 11.30 on Thursdays and Fridays.

All international students at the Academy have the opportunity to take Danish language courses on campus for free.

We strongly encourage our international students to learn Danish during their stay in Denmark, as it not only helps with the integration process, it is also extremely helpful when looking for jobs and internships in Denmark.

Have an influence on your programme.

Most of the programmes at the Academy have their own Student Council. The Student Council allows you to have a say on your programme and organises social activities across classes. Each class elects two representatives to represent them in the Student Council. The Student Council works closely with the interdisciplinary Academy Council.

The Academy Council is the student's opportunity to have a direct say on their daily life as a student at Business Academy Aarhus.
