At KEA, we offer a wide range of practice-oriented higher education programmes at business academy and professional bachelor level.
Our programmes are developed in close cooperation with the business community and educational institutions at home and abroad.
KEA offers programmes within four areas:
Please note that our full degree programmes only are offered in Danish.
KEA no longer admits new full degree students to English-taught programmes (the so-called international lines). New intakes only take place at the Danish lines. Current students who are already part of an international line can of course complete their education at KEA.
We also welcome exchange students from partner universities, just as we are sending out students on studies abroad.
In June 2021, Danish politicians have decided that as a general rule, Danish Business Aacademies can no longer admit new students to English-language programmes as of the Autumn semester 2022. Unfortunately, this means that KEA will have to close all international programmes.
All current students (at the time) could continue their programme.
All current (at the time) international students as well as students starting an international programme in 2021 have the right to complete their programme. The last international bachelor degree programme graduate i 2025.
It has been announced that the political agreement is intended to finance the government’s plans for study programmes in some of the smaller cities across Denmark.
The agreement is also supposed to reduce expenses relating to SU (state grants) for international students as costs have been increasing in recent years.
If you have read an AP degree at KEA it is no longer possible to progress to a international Top Up at KEA.
Students who graduate from an AP degree can apply for a Danish language top-up programme if their Danish language skills are considered adequate. To meet this demand, you will need Danish at A-level or the so-called ‘studieprøven’ (study test) to be accepted to a top-up programme.
There are no changes to the SU rules.
EU citizens can still get SU, on the same terms as now. No tuition fees will be introduced for EU citizens.
Students will still be able to go abroad for exchange semesters or take internships abroad. Internships in Denmark may however be a good idea if you want to work in Denmark after your studies as many internships lead to jobs.
Even though the international programmes have been closed there is still international students and an international community at KEA in the future.
The students who begun studying in autumn 2021 will be here until they graduate (the full Bachelor degree students won’t graduate until January 2025), and there will still be exchange students at KEA after 2022 too.
