DUN in English

The Danish Network for Educational Development in Higher Education (DUN) is an association whose purpose is to develop the quality of university education and university teaching. DUN pursues this through networks, like the Special Interest Groups (SIGs), activities and publications for its members. One of these publications is the Danish Journal of Higher Education (DUT), which you can read more about through the link in the menu.

DUN’s target group embraces everybody involved in university education including leaders, teachers/lecturers education and e-learning consultants in higher education. Membership is free for those working at a member institution. DUN currently has representatives from all Danish universities, other higher education institutions and independent members.

DUN brings together researchers, teachers, educational developers, and consultants to share knowledge, exchange experiences and develop ideas by organizing university education activities:

  • DUN hosts an annual conference on university pedagogy, which offers a wide range of presentations and workshops on higher education pedagogy. If you are registered on DUN´s mailing list, you will automatically receive information on and an invitation to this event.
  • During the year, DUN hosts and promotes a variety of smaller scale events, such as workshops, webinars, conferences, and shares publication opportunities.
  • DUN’s Special Interest Groups (SIGs) often offer open events which anyone can attend. You can read more about the SIGs by following the link in the menu on the left-hand side.

If you have proposals for events or if you know of an event that would be of relevance to members, we would be happy to advertise it on this website and act as co-organisers.

Language policy
Most DUN members speak Danish, and DUN primarily communicates in Danish. Therefore, the majority of DUN's activities are conducted in Danish, and Danish is the working language.
However, we are aware that Danish universities and other member institutions of DUN have an increasing number of non-Danish-speaking educators and a variety of English medium programmes.
Unfortunately, DUN does not have the resources to offer our website and other communications in both languages, however some DUN activities, events and publications, as listed below, are offered in English.

  • DUN Activities include ones offered in English.
  • DUT, DUN's journal publishes articles in Danish, English, Norwegian, and Swedish.
  • DUNK, DUNs annual conference includes an English medium track.
