Copenhagen……. Welcome to Copenhagen YPO Site Inspection, April 2012 Copenhagen, One of the Largest Cities in Northern Europe Welcome to Copenhagen……. Welcome to Copenhagen YPO site inspection, April 2012 Copenhagen, one of the largest cities in northern Europe Copenhagen is one of the largest cities in northern Europe and also one of Europe's busiest hubs. The city's location has throughout centuries in an almost natural way created commercial routes to far and near. Copenhagen is the seat of the National Parliament - the Royal Residence and Supreme High Court. The city was founded in the years 1160-67 by Bishop Absalon and is today a part of the Danish Cultural Heritage. NUSOD SITE When the College of Advanced Technology was founded in 1829, Denmark had its first MSc programme in Engineering at a high academic level. The College changed its name to Danish Technical College in 1933 and finally became the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) in 1994. DTU has always had a strong theoretical grounding. H.C. Ørsted, the scientist who discovered electromagnetism, founded the College in the image of École Polytechnique in France. The DTU is only 15 minutes north of the city centre of Copenhagen. You can get to DTU in Kgs. Lyngby by car or by public transportation. Several busses stop almost at the door. 3 NUSOD SITE FACILITIES Campus Village Auditorium 1 Meeting room Foyer Glassalen – Dining Room Entrance Restaurant Conference Dinner Venue Bella Sky Comwell is a spectacular skyscraper and striking landmark in Copenhagen’s newest neighbourhood, Orestaden. The interior decoration of the hotel is based on an innovation of the classic hotel. Bella Sky Comwell follows the tradition of renowned Scandinavian design and is decorated with simple components in stylish materials that reflect the hotel’s exclusivity. With its 23 floors the hotel is not only the largest hotel in Scandinavia – it is arguably the most aesthetically attractive. If you would like to explore Copenhagen, you are closer than you may think. Just 100 metres from the hotel, the Metro and buses will take you directly to the city centre in less than 10 minutes. Scandic Eremitage Hotel Fortunen Gentofte Hotel ACCOMODATIONS Copenhagen offers a broad range of accomodation close to the Technical University of Denmark Lyngby Vandrehjem Hotel Postgaarden Hotel Bella Sky Hotel Frederiksdal Campus Village DIRECTIONS The Technical University of Denmark To Lyngby Vandrehjem Campus Village Hotel Frederiksdal Hotel Scandic Eremitage Hotel Fortunen Hotel Postgaarden To Copenhagen Central Station and Copenhagen Airport DIRECTIONS The conference venue is situated approx. 45 minutes by bus or train from Copenhagen Central Station. We recommend accommodation in the nice local area of Kgs. Lyngby to avoid too much transportation during the conference. 3 hotels and the Campus Village can be found within 2,5 km from the conference venue. The area has nice pathways and the conference venue can be easily reached from the hotels on foot, by bus or taxi. Arriving by plane Copenhagen Airport (Kastrup Lufthavn) is Northern Europe’s main traffic hub with direct flights from Approx. 140 destinations all over the world. There are trains every 2 - 10 minutes from Copenhagen Airport which stops at the main stations of Copenhagen; Nørreport, Østerport, Vesterport and Copenhagen Central Station. It takes approximately 45 minutes to get to DTU. From Copenhagen Airport taxis are available to bring you directly to the Technical University of Denmark. The journey normally takes around 45 minutes. Arriving by train Copenhagen Central Station is located in the heart of the city. It is a gateway to all public transportation in and out and around Copenhagen. Here you will find buses, taxis, local S-trains as well as regional trains which will take you to North Sealand and to the Technical University of Denmark in Kgs. Lyngby. To reach the Technical University of Denmark you go from the Copenhagen Central Station by local S-train to Nørreport Station and then take the train to Kgs. Lyngby. From the train/bus station in Kgs. Lyngby you can go by bus no. 300S, 353, 180E, 181E or 190 to ”DTU/Anker Engelunds Vej”. The transportation time is 35-40 minutes from Copenhagen Central Station to DTU by train and bus. .

    Ringbanen – en ny, tværgående bybane Ringbanen EN BANE PÅ TVÆRS MED NYE FORBINDELSER Ringbanen bliver en ny, tværgående linie på det storkøben- havnske S-banenet. Hér får passagererne mulighed for hurtigt og bekvemt at skifte til de andre S-togslinier, og der bliver gode omstigningsmuligheder til busser, regionaltog på Hellerup Station (Kystbanen) og Ny Ellebjerg Station (Øresundsbanen) samt Metroen på Flintholm Station. Ringbanen er på ca. 11,5 km. Den består dels af den hidtidige Ydre Bybane mellem Hellerup og Grøndal og dels af en nyan- lagt bane. Fra Hellerup til Grøndal Station har Banestyrelsen udskiftet den eksisterende bane totalt med nyt underlag, Mod Farum Mod Hillerød Mod Klampenborg Mod Helsingør Eksisterende Ringbane Ringbane under bygning Hellerup Mod Frederikssund Ryparken Bispebjerg Nørrebro Fuglebakken C.
