SDU Kolding

A passion for design and nature

Lucie Mocková, 25, Czech Republic, product design

Denmark was an obvious choice for me because I want to work in design. Danish and Scandinavian design has a strong reputation and a long history, so I was convinced it would be a high-quality program here.

I love nature, and Kolding is a great size with beautiful natural areas. It’s a small town that feels big, so I’m thrilled about my decision to move here.

Many people go to the beach and cycle everywhere, and I love that I can run through beautiful parks or past different animals—almost like running in a little zoo.


Kolding is very community-based

Once you get to know people and what’s going on here, the town feels very lively. I’m part of different groups and associations, and that helped me a lot when I moved here a year ago to set up a bank account, find housing, etc.

I’d also recommend this to others—don’t be alone and wait for your chance. Go out and see what’s there for you. And make sure to follow Campus Kolding on Instagram. They organise events for students, which is a great way to start your studies.
