About this tour

Core Course Week, including short Study Tour, enhances the Global Economics curriculum by giving you a more nuanced understanding of how classroom theories apply to a real world context.

The itinerary is designed to illustrate how Danish companies compete in a global market, specifically by looking at regional locations of companies. Through visits to companies that have strong roots in Denmark, as well as companies based in nearby Sweden, or those that have expanded to locations throughout the world, you will gain a better understanding of the challenges Danish companies face when competing in a European context, and their perspective of the role of globalization in shaping the future.

Core Course Week is designed to exhibit classroom economic theory, as well as expose you to Danish and Swedish culture, art, history, and cuisine.
