LIVING

Part of moving to a new country is learning the language and the customs, but it's also very useful to know the right apps, websites, services, rules, etc. When you get stuck in your own research, we're here to help you find your way and make your everyday life easier with guidance on practical issues. 

WORKING

If you want to work in Odense, we can help you get started. We offer general guidance on databases, job portals, networking, and strategies. At our open job search events, job seekers can get information, useful tools, and inspiration in their job search. 

STUDYING

Odense offers a vibrant and dynamic student life supporting a broad range of higher education programs. We offer general guidance on student life here in Odense and encourage you to immerse yourself in the city's many offers for students and graduates. 

BELONGING

Throughout the year, we offer a variety of professional and social activities for international employees and their families. At our events, internationals can meet each other and the Danes and expand their social networks. Most of our events are free of charge and open to the general public, Danes and internationals alike.
