Roskilde University (RUC)

Roskilde University was established to challenge academic traditions and to experiment with new ways of creating and acquiring knowledge.

The University cultivates a project- and problem-oriented approach to knowledge development, as the most relevant results are achieved by solving real-world problems in collaboration with others.

The University values interdisciplinarity, because no significant problems can be solved from a single academic perspective.

And Roskilde University promotes openness, because inclusion and knowledge sharing are prerequisites for free thought, democracy, tolerance and growth.
