Copenhagen Business School
Copenhagen Business School

Copenhagen Business School (Danish: Handelshøjskolen i København) often abbreviated and referred to as CBS (also in Danish), is a public university situated in Copenhagen, Denmark and is considered one of the most prestigious business schools in Western Europe and the world.CBS was established in 1917 by the Danish Society for the Advancement of Business Education and Research (FUHU); however, it was not until 1920 that accounting became the first full study programme at CBS. Today CBS has approximately 20,000 students and 2,000 employees, and offers a wide range of undergraduate and graduate programmes within business, typically with an interdisciplinary and international focus. CBS is accredited by EQUIS (European Quality Improvement System), AMBA (Association of MBAs), as well as AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business), thus making it one of the few schools worldwide to hold the "triple-crown" accreditation, and along with Aarhus BSS, the only two in Denmark.The CBS campus is located in Frederiksberg, close to the center of Copenhagen, and centers on the school's main campus of Solbjerg Plads, completed in 2000. Since the Danish Universities Act of 2003, CBS has had a board of directors with an external majority. The Board of Directors appoints the President of CBS, who is currently Nikolaj Malchow-Møller. Most of the programs are taught in English, and more than half of the faculty is recruited from abroad, making CBS an international academic environment. The university's alumni include Søren Skou, CEO of A.P Moller-Maersk, Lise Kingo, executive director of the United Nations Global Compact, Fritz Henrik Schur Junior, Chairman of Ørsted, David Heinemeier Hansson, creator of Ruby on Rails, Kasper Rørsted, CEO of Adidas, Hannibal Muammar Gaddafi, son of former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, Jacob Schram, CEO of Norwegian Air, Lars Dalgaard, founder of SuccessFactors, Thor Haraldsson, as well as several other entrepreneurs and Danish politicians.

Frederiksberg Municipality
Frederiksberg Municipality

Frederiksberg Kommune is a municipality (Danish, kommune) on the island of Zealand (Sjælland) in Denmark. Part of the Capital Region of Denmark and the city of Copenhagen, it is surrounded by Copenhagen Municipality. The municipality, co-extensive with its seat, covers a total area (land and water) of 8.71 km2 (3.36 square miles; 871 hectares) according to the Municipal Key Figures and has a population of 103,608 (1. January 2022) making it the smallest municipality in Denmark area-wise, the seventh most populous, and the most densely populated. Its mayor is Michael Vindfeldt from the Social Democrats serving from 1 January 2022. The city of Frederiksberg is the only town in the municipality, and is therefore the site of its municipal council. Frederiksberg is located as an enclave within the municipality of Copenhagen, the national capital. The municipality was originally situated west of Copenhagen, but after a number of smaller municipalities were merged with Copenhagen in 1901, it became surrounded by Copenhagen. Frederiksberg was one of the three last Danish municipalities not belonging to a County—the others being Copenhagen and Bornholm. On 1 January 2007, the municipality lost its county privileges and became part of Region Hovedstaden (i.e. the Copenhagen Capital Region). Frederiksberg municipality was not merged with other municipalities as the result of nationwide Kommunalreformen ("The Municipal Reform" of 2007).

Hassagers Kollegium
Hassagers Kollegium

Hassagers Kollegium (originally Hassagers Collegium with 1900 orthography) is a small dormitory located at Frederiksberg Bredegade 13 B 2000 Frederiksberg, Denmark (Location:55°40′40″N 12°31′43″E). The name simply means Hassager's dormitory. It has 10 small single rooms (12 square meters each) which may only be rented by students from the University of Copenhagen who have passed exams equivalent to two years of study. Through the years, about 340 students have lived at the Kollegium. The mix of students from different faculties and the fact that only older students are admitted have created a dormitory with a relatively calm atmosphere. The Kollegium was founded by Dorthea Hassager in remembrance of her late husband, the priest Carl Hassager, and it was inaugurated on 25 September 1900. It is the youngest of the old dormitories of the University of Copenhagen. The kollegium has an Ephorus Colegii who, in return for doing the administrative duties such as admitting new students and managing the economy of the dormitory, lives for free in the nearby old townhouse where Dorthea Hassager originally lived. The current ephorus is John Edelsgaard Andersen, PhD who is also the director of the International Office of the University of Copenhagen. Only a person who works at the university may become ephorus. The title ephorus is derived from the Greek ephoros which has been vulgarized into Latin. The dormitory also has a janitor who takes care of the more practical aspects of managing the dorm. After the Second World War (in 1950) Hassagers Kollegium became integrated into the newly built 4. maj kollegiet (The 4th of May Dormitory). The old dormitory was torn down, and Hassagers Kollegium now shares building and ephorus with the new dormitory. The traditions of Hassagers Collegium live on, and application for the two dormitories remains separate (4. maj kollegiet is for children and grandchildren of the Danish freedom fighters during the War).
