Bank Account & Phone Number INTERNATIONAL STUDENT Opening up a Danish bank account and phone number is quite practical. Every bank in Denmark can handle setting up an account for you and provide you with a basic guide to banking in Denmark.

There are plenty of phone providers around that all offer different plans and perks, so have a walk around the city or search online, and you should be able to find a satisfying offer. Having a Danish phone number also means being able to get the app MobilePay, which is widely used around Denmark to pay with your phone.

CBS Students Print is THE print service for students at CBS. And "I really enjoy using CBS printing service because it works quickly, efficiently the best thing about it, is that it and is affordable for students. Everything works wirelessly, which facilitates is run for the students by the stu- the whole process a lot. You just need to install the drivers in order to print, but dents. This means that the print you can find all necessary instructions at cbsstudents.dk." service at CBS has student friendly - Karol Barzyk, Information Management Communication prices; meaning that it is cheap.

CBS Students Print has a history that shows exactly how student initiatives can improve the student life at CBS. The former solution to print was quite expensive and cumbersome. Therefore, a group of students thought, “We can do this better”.

They worked tirelessly setting up the printers, the software and making sure that everything was just right, even making sure that the printers were always stocked with paper and ink etc. And it worked. CBS closed its competing service as CBS Students was, and still is, able to provide the PRINT best and cheapest printing service www.cbsstudents.dk/print around.

So whenever you are printing ex- ams or other important documents; remember that it is all student driv- en, and it is the reason why you can print inexpensively at CBS.

CBS Students has two main ways of working with the National Union of Students. First of all, we have a seat on the board of the Union, where a dedicated CBS student represents the opinion of the 23.000 fellow students at CBS. Before each board meeting in DSF, the CBS representative arranges a meeting where all CBS students are invited to voice their opinion about the topics on the agenda. This way all students can influence the final decision.

Secondly, together with the National Union, we participate actively in the events and activities arranged during the year.

CBS has more than 100 organizations run by students, with great variety to choose from. Whether you like debating, taking photos or looking at art, being physically active – or maybe you simply want to spend an evening enjoying a class of wine with your friends? CBS has it all!

CBS DEBATING SOCIETY

What we do Do you want to become a better presenter and public speaker, while also getting to travel cheaply around Europe, learn from your fellow students and of course, have fun! The CBS Debating Socie- ty is committed to the often-undervalued principle of friendly and open argumentation. Our aim is to teach our members to train their persuasion skills. We meet on a regular basis and hold structured debates where everyone is invited to give a speech and hone their skills. What is unique about these practices is that you are given a topic and a side to argue that may not correspond with what you be- lieve. This may seem a little odd, but it allows you to practice the art of arguing itself instead of repeating points that you heard or used elsewhere. In association with these training sessions we often give workshops on how to argue about different topic areas (e.g. human rights, philosophy, feminism) or how to master the technical art of rhetoric (e.g. structuring an argument, refuting the opposition).

Why we do it The practice of university debate itself is a tradition carried out on campuses around the world, and students who wish to involve themselves heavily in the society get the chance to join debate competitions across Europe to test their skills and their worldviews against a wide array of students approaching the same issue from different perspectives.

What is in it for you You do not need to invest heavily in the debate society to reap bene- fits. All of our events are drop-in and many people find it worthwhile to join every once in a while, to sharpen their public speaking skills or to listen to a reasoned discussion with a little more civility than what they might find on Facebook. We often see that just from tak- ing part in a few debates, people become able to see arguments in a different way, allowing them to better assess the points of others and better make points of their own. This skill is not just about con- vincing your immediate friends and family, persuasion is also an es- sential part of academic and professional life, meaning that debate can benefit you long after you leave CBS.
