Past Review Dis In Copenhagen Is The Place To Be For The College Aged Student: Trendy, Social/Fun, Challenging! DIS Copenhagen: Semester

"INCREDIBLY! I would not have gone anywhere else. I loved DIS, but loved Copenhagen and Denmark even more. My studies and surroundings have encouraged me to perhaps try out architecture, and stray from my originally-intended "City Planning". I am finding more meaning in sustainable design, and Nordic strategies."
