with a DEPT–OS 100 equivalent will be applied towards overall credits to graduate. However, students
may submit the course materials to that department to be evaluated for specific credit either before or
after studying abroad. If a course is listed as OS200/300/400, the course has been evaluated by the
academic department.
All core classes include two study tours. The first study tour is a short trip typically to another location
within Denmark and the second is a week-long study tour to another location within Europe.
