About
The Royal Danish School of Educational Sciences, originally founded in 1904, was Denmark's premier institution dedicated to educational research and teacher training before its integration into Aarhus University in 2007, where it now operates as the Danish School of Education (DPU). It was best known for its pioneering work in pedagogy, educational psychology, and curriculum development. While no longer an independent entity, its legacy continues through DPU, which offers a range of master's and PhD programs, including several taught in English, attracting a diverse international student body. International students at DPU benefit from Aarhus University's extensive support services, including an International Centre, dedicated student guidance, and various social integration programs. Its distinctive characteristic was its historical role as the national hub for advancing educational science and teacher professionalization.
