UCD Study Abroad Denmark

Hello there! As many of you know, I'm enrolled at University of Colorado Denver studying Digital Design.  This upcoming summer I have the opportunity to study abroad in Copenhagen, Denmark in a program called "Scandinavian by Design" where I will be able to study design in entirely new ways. The practice of design in Scandinavia is deeply embedded in the cultural identity of the place. Design is apparent in every facet of their culture—from print media to city planning.

This trip would count for 6 credits towards my major which would be an incredible help since I have to make up the classes I dropped after my father passed away unexpectedly a year ago. 

Through intensive participatory workshops, study tours, studio visits and lectures this class examines the advantages of interdisciplinary community-based collaboration. We are expected to use multiple modes of inquiry to expand individual and group knowledge base. The class also examines the complexities and challenges of cross disciple collaborations including multiple professional agendas, collision of discipline, political and business establishments and the needs of the community.

This trip would mean the world to me. And after everything with my dad I could use a little help expanding my horizons and getting out to explore the world. Scandinavian by Design 

Thank you for your time! Much Love!
