CBS is perceived as the best business school in Scandinavia and many employers in the region look to recruit there. However, it is not very recognized elsewhere, so you might need to clarify if a career in Denmark or it surroundings is what you are looking for. I lived in Denmark previously and I can tell you it is not the easiest place to adapt to.

Thanks for reply.
Can you please elaborate more on "adapt to". I mean is there anything which troubles while studying...

There is some trouble, particularly for people of a certain religion, but I would prefer to discuss this particular topic off the record since it will always be a heated topic.

What I meant more in general is that, compared to London for example, Copenhagen is not a city where you can spend a life keeping your identity. Instead, you are required to fully adapt and integrate. Some people might think this is a good thing, but I personally feel that the charm and success of London and many other international cities is precisely its many cultures all coexisting. Also, Danish is a particularly difficult language making integration very difficult. There are also issues of food, this "hygge" thing I never understood, and so on. But again, what can I possibly I know...

Thanks for info.. Can you please let me know the employment ratios and difficulty faced by an Indian citizen. What are options of part time jobs in Denmark.

You may want to consider Erasmus
in Rotterdam, though I’m guessing you have it as number one in your sights?

Hi BlackVoid18,

Besides Copenhagen and RSM, you could also look at IE Spain; HEC Paris too is a great option (a lot more competitive as well, in our opinion).

All the best!
