Copenhagen University, Denmark Semester B, 2014 Exchange Report Copenhagen University, Denmark Semester B, 2014 My name is Amber and I decided to go on exchange to Copenhagen University, I chose this University because of its location in Europe and the selection of papers that are not available at Waikato. Before you leave Get the process for getting your Visa going as soon as you get the paperwork from Copenhagen University, you have to book an appointment in Wellington, and the payment you make to the office in Wellington has to be in cash and is around $500. From there the application is sent to Australia to be processed so it takes a long time! When you first arrive One thing you will find out when you first get there is that most people speak some English. The second is that you need your CPR number for everything. In order to get this you must register with the local authorities, to register with them you need your Visa approval documents, something that gives your address (rental agreement works) and your passport. Once you have this you will be given a print out with your number on it that you can use until the card comes in the mail – this is different to your resident card! When you first get to Copenhagen get a local SIM for your phone, to get one on a plan you will need to have your CPR already, however you can get a prepaid SIM from the 7-Eleven, they have several different ones to choose from. The prepaid ones have roaming options which is great if you are planning to travel, you just have to activate that option once you have the SIM, and the instructions are in English as well as Danish usually. Finance There are different ways that you can get money to Denmark, I found it easiest to open a bank account and get a debit card, and it makes things so much easier. I had the money transferred from my NZ bank account to my Danish one. I went with Nordea Bank, they have a special deal for those under 28 years old, no set up fees and no transaction fees, and free internet banking. The account was set up in a week, and I had my card a week after that. Danish rules mean that the bank has to do a security check on all new customers, but once that is done it is really easy. The best way to get it set up is to go straight into that bank and ask about an account, don’t worry most people speak really good English. You will need to have your CPR number with you to open the account, something with your Danish address and a Danish phone number. Cost of things: - A cappuccino at a normal café is around 35DK, so around $7. - A loaf of bread can be anything from $1 to $8 depending on the type. - A movie ticket is around $20. - Seasonal, locally produced fruit is cheaper, 3 capsicums in the summer only cost $2.50 - Meat is expensive, a small portion of beef is around $15, and it doesn’t quite taste like the stuff at home. - Metro ticket from the airport to central Copenhagen (Nørreport) cost 36DK / $7. Housing The easiest way to get accommodation in Copenhagen is though the Housing Foundation, trying to get a place privately is very hard. All information on how to apply is given by the university – however their system is not very good and tends to crash a lot. If you have any issues with them the best thing to do is to hound them with emails until they fix the problem. I stayed at Nordre Fasanvej Kollegiet. It is a studio room with a private bathroom and kitchenette. There is no communal kitchen and the cooking facilities consist of two stove elements, no microwave or oven. All cutlery/crockery is provided as well as furniture in the room and the bedding/towels etc. You are provided with a laundry card, the laundry includes washing machines and dryers. There are many supermarkets close by, the closest is QFakta, and this is found on the ground floor of the building. It is really easy to get to as there is a Metro close by. Transport I decided not to get a bike after borrowing one from a friend and trying it out. My skills on a bike are not the best, and when you add to that being on the other side of the road and the madness of the Danish cyclers I decided it would be best not to. That did not mean that I was stuck, the public transport system is really good in Copenhagen, the buses are regular all day and night as well as the trains and Metro. There are 3 ways to pay for the use of public transport, pay for each journey as you go – this can be annoying particularly on buses, you can get a PeriodKort, you pay around $60 for a month of unlimited travel, you can buy several months at once, you just need to select which zones you wish to include on the card, the more zones you add the more it will cost. The final method of paying for transport is getting a Rejsekort, this is a card pre-loaded with money that is scanned when you enter and exit the transport, and it deducts the journey from the card. For planning journeys using public transport the best way to go is using this website (it is in English too): http://www.rejseplanen.dk/ just put in where you will be leaving from and where you will be going to, it will give you the best way to get there, it uses all forms of public transport. Things to do - Tivoli - Copenhagen Zoo - Open Air Cinema (Summer Time) - Malmo - Canal Tour (best in the summertime, the wind in the winter is cold!!!) Exams Exams are done differently in Denmark, there are 3 types of exams, the take home, the written and the oral. Oral exams are 20 minute exams where you are questioned by the examiner on anything covered in the course, the great thing is that you get your mark immediately at the end of the questioning. The take home comes in two forms, one is 24 hours, and you have that time from receiving the questions to submitting them online, the other 3 days over a weekend. The written exams are generally 4 hours and are done on the computer, and most are open book. Other Facts (That may help) - The main supermarkets are called: Fakta, QFakta, Netto, Superbest, Føtex and Irma; Irma is more expensive than the others. At Føtex you can also get toasters and kettles and things like that relatively cheap, some of them even have clothes, it is kind of like a supermarket/Kmart mix. - Tiger is a great shop for all those little things that you may want to find cheap like dish brushes, note pads, pens. These shops are everywhere! If you decide to go to Copenhagen you will have a fantastic time! Matriculation Ceremony to introduce all new students at the beginning of the academic year. The streets next to one of the main lecture buildings for law. Snow from my room at Nordre Fasanvej Kollegiet. .

  • Hunters and Farmers in the North – the Transformation of Pottery Traditions
    Hunters and farmers in the North – the transformation of pottery traditions and distribution patterns of key artefacts during the Mesolithic and Neolithic transition in southern Scandinavia Lasse Sørensen Abstract There are two distinct ceramic traditions in the Mesolithic (pointed based vessels) and Neolithic (flat based vessels) of southern Scandinavia. Comparisons between the two ceramic traditions document differences in manufacturing techniques, cooking traditions and usage in rituals. The pointed based vessels belong to a hunter-gatherer pottery tradition, which arrived in the Ertebølle culture around 4800 calBC and disappears around 4000 calBC. The flat based vessels are known as Funnel Beakers and belong to the Tragtbæger (TRB) culture, appearing around 4000 calBC together with a new material culture, depositional practices and agrarian subsistence. Pioneering farmers brought these new trends through a leap- frog migration associated with the Michelsberg culture in Central Europe. These arriving farmers interacted with the indigenous population in southern Scandinavia, resulting in a swift transition. Regional boundaries observed in material culture disappeared at the end of the Ertebølle, followed by uniformity during the earliest stages of the Early Neolithic. The same boundaries reappeared again during the later stages of the Early Neolithic, thus supporting the indigenous population’s important role in the neolithisation process.

  • Cloudburst Masterplan for Ladegårdså, Frederiksberg East & Vesterbro
    SUMMARY CLOUDBURST MASTERPLAN FOR LADEGÅRDSÅ, FREDERIKSBERG EAST & VESTERBRO RESUMÉ KONKRETISERING AF SKYBRUDSPLAN Ladegårdsåen og Vesterbro CLOUDBURST CATCHMENTS The very severe cloudburst hitting Copenhagen the 2nd of July 2011 caused flooding in large portions of the city. The flooding caused significant problems for the infrastructure in the NH inner parts of Copenhagen and Frederiksberg. In certain places up to half a meter of water covered the street and several houses and shops had suffered serious damages. Brønshøj - Husum Østerbro Bispebjerg ØSTERBRO The serious consequences following the cloudburst on July 2nd 2011 and other minor cloudbursts have led the municipalities of Copenhagen and Frederiksberg to initiate this project, Nørrebro which aims to highlight potential initiatives effective in mitigating flooding and reducing damages related to Ladegårdså cloudbursts in the future. Vanløse- INDREIndre BY by The cloudburst solutions presented here cover the Frederiksberg Vest Frederiksberg Øst CH catchments of Ladegårdså, Frederiksberg East & Vesterbro. The proposed solutions for cloudburst management comply with the service level for cloudbursts in Copenhagen and Frederiksberg, ie. a maximum of 10 cm of water on terrain Vesterbro during a 100-year storm event. Additionally, in accordance with the intentions and visions set out in the Cloudburst Plan for Copenhagen and Frederiksberg from 2012, proposed Amager solutions are sought developed to include added value and Valby - SH elements, which contribute to making the city more green, Frederiksberg Sydvest more blue, more attractive and more liveable. The cloudburst catchments are prioritized based on an assessment of the flood risks in the individual catchments. Along with the Inner City (Indre by) & Østerbro, the Ladegårdså, Frederiksberg East & Vesterbro catchment belongs to catchments of highest priority.

  • (Fasanvej) Af KHR Arkitekter for Me- Troselskabet Præmieret
    2004 BYGNINGSPRÆMIERING Præmieret: Metrostationerne Forum, Frederiksberg og Solbjerg (Fasanvej) af KHR Arkitekter for Me- troselskabet Stationerne er fornemme repræsentanter for dybtliggende stationer. De fint detaljerede glasprismer står som vartegn for den moder- ne infrastruktur og indpasser sig smukt i byens offentlige rum. Stationsrummene gennemstrømmes af lys og oplevelsen af dagslys dybt under jorden er forunderlig og overbevisende. Et overbevisende arkitektonisk greb af international karakter. Præmieret: De to glaspyramider ved Cisternerne i Søndermarken af Max Seidenfaden for Museet for Moderne Glaskunst. Glaspavillonerne er en fornem skulpturel markering, der angiver nedgangen til det sær-prægede underjordiske udstillingsrum i de nedlagte drikkevandscisterner under plænen foran Frederiksberg Slot i Søndermarken. Pavillonerne er placeret symmetrisk i det stramme parkanlæg og med sit enkle, moderne og skulpturelle formsprog, supplerer de fint det klassiske anlæg, og respekterer samtidig stemningen og nærheden til Frederiksberg Slot. 2004 BYGNINGSPRÆMIERING Rosende omtale: Ombygning af tidligere varmeværk til kulturhus, Nyelandsvej 75 B, af arkitekt Sø- ren Nielsen for Frederiksberg Kommune Det er med få tiltag lykkedes, at skabe en yderst raffineret arkitektonisk dialog mellem de gamle tunge rå kedelbygninger og nye elegante bygningsmæssige additioner. De nye elementer fremstår således som raffinerede arkitektoniske kontraster, så husets nye funktion som kulturhus er indpasset, uden at historien og stemningen i de gamle kedelhaller er gået tabt. Rosende omtale: Facaderenovering på Gammel Kongevej 120 af Jess Jessen. Ejendommen skal fremhæves som et forbillede på, hvordan bygningsrenoveringen og restaureringen af facaden bidrager til at give Gammel Kongevej endnu et løft i den rigtige retning. Facaden er ført tilbage til det oprindelige udtryk, med stor respekt for den peri- ode huset er opført i.
