Leisure time and Student Organisations

We hope you will participate in the social and academic life at the Faculty and have a great time while you are here. 

You can choose to get a mentor when you arrive. Your mentor will be a Danish law student and it will provide you with a unique opportunity to feel at home more quickly both the Faculty and in Copenhagen as a city.

Below is a list of some of the student activities at the Law Faculty as well as the University.

Friday Bar

Every second or third Friday, the student organisation Juridisk Diskussionsklub - The Law Debate Team - hosts a Friday Bar at The Law House (Jurahuset), Studiestræde 34. It is open for all Law Students.

Law Students' organisations

The two Law Student Organisations arrange many social events during the semester. This is a place where you can get to know some of the Danish law students:

International Café

The Student House (Studenterhuset) is in the centre of Copenhagen (Købmagergade 52, right next to the Round Tower) and is a place where students from different faculties can meet, study and have a good time.

During the week the Student House puts on a range of activities such as debates, quiz-night, gay-day, live music and an International Café. Every Wednesday night during the semester there is an International Café in the Student House, an event which is hugely popular both among Danish and international students. 

University Sports Club

for all students at the University of Copenhagen.

See their offer of sports activities on http://www.usg.dk

If you are interested in doing sports while you are studying at the University of Copenhagen, we encourage you to make use of their offer. It is cheap compared to joining other clubs and it is a good way to socialise with Danish and other international students in an informal way.
