Study environment

A good study environment matters more than you would think. Therefore, we actively strive to create a setting where students can concentrate on gaining new knowledge, apply their theory in practice as well as create and maintain their relations to their fellow students.

Our campuses are the settings for our students’ learning and their social community. No matter where you choose to study - be it UCN in Aalborg, Hjørring, or Thisted - you can expect surroundings in a modern and open environment, all great to work in.

Days spent on more than screens and books

At UCN, our focus is on educating for the real world. This means that you always get to apply your knowledge with cases and tasks from the real world. Of course, there is still assigned reading and theory on our courses, but we want you to learn how to apply your knowledge in practice. We call this Reflective Practice-based Learning. It is one thing what the theory says. It is another thing how that thing actually works. More on our study and teaching ways at UCN here:

Our learning approach

Become a part of an active and social course

Usually, lessons take place in smaller classes, allowing you to work more with cases and real-world tasks. This does not mean that you won’t get to experience big lectures – however, when class-based teaching is prioritised, chances of being heard and seen increase. That is a positive for your own learning and a positive for the social aspect of your education.
