Aarhus University (Aarhus Universitet, abbreviated AU) is the largest and second oldest research university in Denmark.[1][2]
Overview
The university was founded in Aarhus, Denmark, in 1928 and comprises five faculties in Arts, Natural Sciences, Technical Sciences, Health, and Business and Social Sciences and has a total of twenty-seven departments. It is home to over thirty research centres, including fifteen Centres of Excellence funded by the Danish National Research Foundation. The university belongs to the Coimbra Group, the Guild, and Utrecht Network of European universities and is a member of the European University Association.[3]
The university's alumni include Bjarne Stroustrup, the inventor of programming language C++, Queen Margrethe II of Denmark, Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark, and Anders Fogh Rasmussen, former Prime Minister of Denmark and a Secretary General of NATO.
Nobel Laureate Jens Christian Skou (Chemistry, 1997),[4] conducted his groundbreaking work on the Na/K-ATPase in Aarhus and remained employed at the university until his retirement. Two other nobel laureates: Trygve Haavelmo (Economics, 1989)[5] and Dale T. Mortensen (Economics, 2010).[6] were affiliated with the university.
