Aarhus University was ranked 107th in the QS World University Rankings 2015/16. In the 2015 edition of the QS World University Rankings by Subject, Aarhus University was ranked 23rd for dentistry and 60th for life sciences and medicine. Aarhus University’s School of Business and Social Sciences (BSS) is accredited by AACSB, AMBA and EQUIS, making it a triple crown accredited business school.

All of the professors at Aarhus University are active researchers. As a result, all of the university’s programs are reviewed on a regular basis in order to ensure that they meet the highest national and world standards.

Over half of Aarhus University’s 40,000 students study at the Master’s or PhD level. Over ten percent of the student body is international, representing 100 different nationalities. Aarhus’ international students have access to an International Centre which offers an orientation programme as well as support and guidance during their time at the university. Danes were recently ranked as the best non-native English speakers in the world, so it is easy for international students to get along in Denmark even if they don’t speak Danish.

Tuition is free for EU, EEA and Swiss citizens. For other students, tuition fees are set annually and can be on the Aarhus University website.

All international Masters students and graduates are given access to career counselling services and a free job bank. The green card residence permit which allows students to complete a higher education programme in Denmark allows students to stay in Denmark for six months after graduation so they have time to look for work.
