Are you a new international student at ITU — or just curious to meet new people from across study programs? Join this fun and social two-day case competition to make friends, share experiences, and get to know Danish student life in a welcoming atmosphere.
Over one weekend, you'll work in teams to explore the challenges of arriving in Denmark and studying at ITU. Together, you’ll transform your biggest “WTF moments” into creative ideas that could help future students feel more at home.
Come as you are! No special skills or experience needed — just curiosity and an open mind. It’s all about the process, having fun, and learning together. Plus, it’s completely free, with meals, snacks, and goodie bags included.
You’ll also meet current ITU NextGen students on Saturday evening, where we’ll enjoy some casual food and social hang out — nothing fancy, just a nice chance to connect.
What’s a case competition?
You work in a team to identify a real problem and develop a creative solution. Here, the focus isn’t on a perfect outcome but on teamwork, new ideas, and enjoying the journey.
