With over 40,000 students and more than 9,000 employees, the University of Copenhagen is one of the largest institutions of research and education in the Nordic countries.

INSUM project is based at the Faculty of Science at the University of Copenhagen. The Faculty of Science – or SCIENCE – is Denmark’s largest science research and education institution with 4,500 employees and 9,500 BSc and MSc students in 11 departments.

The Faculty’s most important task is to contribute to solving the major challenges facing the rapidly changing world with increased pressure on, among other things, natural resources and significant climate change, both nationally and globally. At the same time, the Faculty must contribute to generating economic growth and, thus, ensure our welfare in society. This must take place in close cooperation with the business community and public authorities, organisations and other universities, both in Denmark and abroad.
