Dear new students!

It is a great pleasure for me to welcome you to Copen-hagen Business School, one of the most international universities in Denmark. You are about to embark on a very exciting and inspiring venture that will not only build the foundation for your future career, but most likely also affect you for the rest of your life. As a new student you may fi nd it overwhelming to meet an institution with more than 20,000 students and over 1,300 teachers. But don’t worry; we will take good care of

you. First, you will be properly introduced

to CBS in a compre-hensive introduc-

tory program

offered to you by older students who know how to survive in a large university, both socially and academically. Next you will soon fi nd out that in spite of our size your daily study environment is manageable, with room for friend-ships and a good social life in addition to the studies.

Being a CBS student also means hard workAt CBS we are strongly committed to offer you teaching of high quality. Our teaching is research based, mean-ing that what you learn in class is based on the newest international knowledge. But it also means that you will not only learn facts. More importantly you will be trained to think critically, ask questions, and learn a methodol-ogy to acquire new knowledge in order to solve unfamiliar problems. At the same time, we want our teaching to be relevant and useful in practice. Therefore, we combine theory with real life cases and a large number of our teachers have professional business careers in addition to their teaching at CBS. This interaction between theory and practice guarantees that your skills are immediately applicable in your future professional career.

Studying at CBS not only offers you academic challenges. You will have ample opportunities to engage in social and professional activities that are not direct part of your study, but will contribute to your personal development as a future leader.

CBS students have initiated a large number of activities that make study life fun and personally stimulating. CBS Case Competition, CBS Sport, Venture Cup, Green initiative are just a few examples, and I encourage you to explore all these opportunities, and participate in those that are of in-terest to you. By engaging socially as well as academically I am sure you will get the most out of your years here at CBS. Once again, a WARM welcome to CBS and good luck with your studies!

CBS actually started out as a privately owned and run institutionThe school was established in 1917 by a business association, ‘Foreningen til Unge Handelsmænds Uddannelse’ or ‘FUHU’, which translates more or less into ‘The Association for Young Businessmen’s Education’.

Since then the association has changed its name. However, even to this day, the Association has a major stake in CBS, as landlord of Porcelæn-shaven and external partner when it comes to locating and electing mem-bers to the CBS Board of Directors. Under the Danish university laws and regulations the owner of CBS has since 1965 been the state.

Business schools have earlier in histo-ry been called ‘shopkeepers schools’. Getting CBS accepted and respected as a university of equal academic standing to the traditional universi-ties has thus taken its time. The same doesn’t apply to the educations, since CBS’ BSc in Economics and Business Administration has been Denmark’s single largest university study pro-gram for many years.

CBS shifts to a more international focus with new disciplines About 25 years ago CBS, who at that time was called HHK – Han-delshøjskolen I København – began turning its focus towards a more international outlook and experi-menting with combining traditional business school disciplines with disciplines like languages, philoso-phy, mathematics and others, in both the school’s research and education. This trail-blazing led to a growth in many different directions – new study programs combining disci-plines, running the largest exchange program in Denmark and establish-

ing some of Denmark’s fi rst English language study programs. At this time the school began to brand itself as CBS – Copenhagen Business School – instead of the Danish term.

This growth led to CBS starting to spread out to other areas of Copen-hagen and Frederiksberg establishing activities at other premises. Today the campus of CBS consists of the follow-ing buildings on Frederiksberg: Sol-bjerg Plads (opened in 2000), Dalgas Have (opened in 1988), Kilen (opened in 2006) and Porcelænshaven (opened in 2005). The campus you meet today is thus a result of a push starting in the mid 90’s, culminating with the

complete renovation of the building at Porcelænshaven (which was fi n-ished in 2009). However the big suc-cess CBS has experienced has some consequences. On one hand CBS is getting more and more crowded, as an increasing number of students are applying. As a result of this CBS has to stretch and fi nd new places to spread out the activities. Just this year CBS has taken over an exam hall on Amager. On the other hand there is continually new and exciting study programs popping up, which gives CBS a broad and relevant profi le.

CBS doesn’t just sprawl, it also unifi esIn the beginning there were two faculties; The Faculty of Business Economics and the Faculty of Busi-ness languages. However, today there is only one. There used to be two (at times more) student political or-ganizations, the main ones being The Student’s Council (DSR) and Moderate Students (MS) – today there’s only one – CBS Students.

This is just a bare minimum… a scat-tering of facts… about the 95 year old business school, or rather business

university, that you have just started at. Go fi nd out more for yourself – the campus, the library, the canteens and cafés, the student organizations and social activities and all the other

stuff. It’s a little world of its own, and it offers a community base for you, from where you can start off into the rest of the world. The world of CBS is now a part of your world.

On The First Day At CBS Remember To…Find your booksAcademic Books is the student bookstore at CBS. They work closely together with the lectures and are the ones who make your syllabus lists.

The syllabus lists will be found in the store and on www.academicbooks.dk. You can also register on academic-books.dk and get a message as soon as your syllabus list is ready.

Stay safe - our main concern is your safetyWelcome to CBS - At CBS we do a lot to make students and staff stay as good and safe as possible.

Evacuation – at the sound of the alarm:If the alarm sounds, you must evacu-ate the building immediately and go to the nearest assembly point as indi-cated on the evacuation plan posted on the inside of all classroom doors.On E-Campus www.e-campus.dk/faciliteter/evakueringsplan you can see all of our evacuation plans.

Make a Student ID cardAt CBS, your student ID card is your access to several services at CBS. You need it to go dancing at Nexus Thurs-day night and for your exams. If you should be so unfortunate to lose it, it is very important that you get a new one before your next exam.The card can also be used as a library card and a coin card for CBS Students printing.

Remember to smile ☺

On your Students ID card there must be a lifelike picture of you – so remember to smile. Take your picture at one of the photo posts – one post is located at the ground fl oor at Dal-gas Have’s east wing, known as the blue end. The other photo post is at Solbjerg Plads on the fi rst fl oor in the library. Once your photo is registered all you need to do is to pick up your card at IT-Support approximately one week later.

CBS LibraryQuality Information at Your Fingertips

You are going to need a lot of new information and insights once you embark on your CBS studies. CBS Li-brary offers a world of knowledge and world class study facilities to ensure that you have the best possible set-ting for achieving your goals.

You probably already know Google and Wikipedia and are familiar with the public library system. CBS Library is different as it offers you access to more than 100 specialized databases containing e-books, articles, company data, market reports, statistics, and much more – information you will need as a CBS student.

On a sunny day in May we visited CBS Library and met some CBS students.

Anja Pallesen and Sisse Meier are 6th semester IMK students. They usually visit CBS Library to borrow books or to take a break in the lounge area while waiting for friends.

Today they are looking for books in the reserve collection, a separate col-lection of curricular literature.

Sometimes they also use the library from home: “It is easy and effi cient to search, no matter where you are”. They add: “When we get an as-signment, we use the library - and we’re often surprised by how much information is available through the library’s databases”.

By using remote access Anja and Sisse can fi nd anything from articles to company profi les from home. They encourage new CBS students to take

advantage of the library databases even if it is a little bit dif-

fi cult in the beginning. “You get access to so much more than just Google, it is very useful.”

Julie Christiansen is a sixth semester HA (mat.) student. She is currently completing her fi nal bachelor assign-ment and enjoys the special evening

atmosphere at CBS Library. ”People seem very focused, something that pushes me to work harder”. She has made a booking for one of the Bloomberg terminals available in the library as she needs information about share prices for her assign-ment. Anja, Sisse, and Julie all enjoy the stylish library and even if students sometimes compete for study seats they are satisfi ed with what the library has to offer. And, as Sisse adds, it is nice that you can always get help from a librarian on the phone, by chat or in person.

Visit www.e-campus.dk/libraryto see all CBS Library services,to register as a patron, or to booka study group room or study seat.

We promised CBS Library to let you know, that they are look-ing forward to meeting you and your new fellow students.

So much more than just Google!

New students meet different challenges but all have one thing in com-

mon: you will have a lot to learn and a lot to adapt to. Talking with your

very own mentor who has been through it all her- or himself will help make

your successful transition to student life easier. CBS Mentor consists

of friendly and experienced students who offer you their help through

your first year of study.

The mentorYou will meet your mentor for the fi rst time during the intro period and again through about fi ve men-tor meetings during your fi rst nine months of study. She or he will be a dedicated and experienced student from your own programme. Your mentor will have a broad understand-ing of many different ways of being a student and many different study techniques. And he or she will be trained in mentoring and helping.

The topicsThe mentor meetings take place in small groups where one mentor and about 10 students discuss different topics that are relevant to your pro-gramme. Topics include study tech-niques, exams and exam preparation, managing group work, planning your time and coping with demands and expectations. The mentors will also help you understand the point of the different courses and how the differ-ent courses and other study elements relate to each other.

The meetingsThe mentor meetings will fi gure in your student schedule and the mentors will give you information in advance about the different mentor meetings. You can also contact your mentor and arrange a one-on-one meeting if there is something you need input and ideas to achieve.

The CBS mentors are offering you a guiding hand. - Grab it!

We asked some of last year’s

mentors for their top tips for

developing successful study

techniques. Here are 10 of

their best ideas:

CBS Equal opportunityFor students with disabling features or students who in other ways might have special needs, CBS Equal Opportunity Offi ce offers a mentor program to offer support regarding full participation in student life – both socially and academically: Providing company on a visit to Nexus, getting together to make a study plan or help taking notes at lectures.

Expectations/ambitions:

“Realize what your ambitions are and be realistic about it! Remember to make room in your calendar for “fun” things (working out, friends, family etc.). It also gives you energy”, says Jeppe Rasmussen, fourth semester IMK(Spanish) student.

Time management:

"Make a timetable or plan to struc-ture and manage your time in the best possible way- especially when you have to hand in assignments. In that way, you won´t loose track of time and feel stressed out”, says Martina Michelsen, sixth semester EOK student

Use the facilities:

“CBS offers great libraries and rooms for studying. Use these as your work-place, so your home does not become your offi ce, but merely a place to re-lax and have fun”, says Sidsel Green, second semester IBP student.

Lectures:

“Attend all the lectures and pay attention to what the professor explains. The more you listen and understand your lectures, the easier it will be, when you later have to pre-pare that material for the exam”, says Emilio Rios Galvez, fourth semester International Marketing and Manage-ment student.

Focus your reading on the most important:

“Find out how the texts in your sub-ject are typically presented (structure, form, content), and learn to organ-ize your reading in accordance with its object. Have focus on distinguish between important and unimportant parts of the text - you don't have to read everything! Take notes if that helps you remember the theories”, says Morten Normann Nielsen, fourth semester Ha (Kom.) student.

Participate:

"Study for and participate in class, but most importantly: Participate in one or more of the many student organizations at CBS. The friends, the network, and the new inputs are indispensable ", says Henrik H. Lønne, third semester Cand.Merc. BCM student.

Interact with your lecturers:

“ Talk to the lecturer after class or during the break to give and receive feedback. Also, show interest and engagement –it pays off in the end”, says Sarah Elizabeth Marcussen, sixth semester EOK student.

Study groups:

''It is not always a good idea to be in a study group with the same people that you party with, although it might seem like a great idea-quickly it can become frivolous'', says Kristian Lan ge, fourth semester Ha (Jur) student.

”If you are in doubt whether you have chosen the right fi led of study, have problems with studying or with other things, then use the student guid-ance service. Book a meeting, and talk to them about it. They are very competent”, says Cathrine Pihl, sixth semester EOK student.

Take it easy:

“Your fellow students are grappling with the same academic problems as you are. Dialogue is an important way to learn the academic challenges in your courses – remember not everyone can be top students!”, says Nicklas Kold Nagel, second semester student IMK (English) student.

News On Campus – Stay On Top Of What’s Happening At CBS

The biggest challenge for you as a student is to keep track of every-thing that’s going on – trust us – the anger and disappointment of real-izing that you missed an event that you really wanted to go to is almost unbearable. But don’t worry; here is a guide on how to stay informed about what’s going on at CBS, so you won’t miss a thing.

CBS Observer:

The electronic CBS newspaper that offers general news on everything happening at CBS. Debate sections and reportages covering events and politics at CBS, will keep you updated on the internal workings of the University. You will receive their weekly newsletter in your CBS

student e-mail and you might as well get used to reading it, since they post relevant and important information for all students. Check it out at: www.cbsobserver.dk (also in English).

CBS E-mail:

Make sure you check it regularly and consider redirecting it to your private mail so you won’t miss out on all the good stuff (recently, the former CBS Students President and International Business and Politics student, Anders Meldgård Kjemtrup, got an invitation to meet Hillary Clinton, in his CBS e-mail inbox!!).

Spot A Student Organization At CBS there is a variety of different student organizations, gathered around different inter-

ests. Applying harshly illuminating stereotyping, the student organizations at CBS can be

divided into; The Feinschmeckers, The Internationals, The Business Philanthropists,

The Suits, The Jocks and The Entrepreneurs.

You are always welcome to engage yourself in one of the student organizations or even to start your own. Being a member of a

student organization is a perfect way to share interests, meet new people or perhaps learn about the business aspects within a small

organization. If you are curious about which one to join, check them out at the Student Society Day, which with a setup similar to the

Career Fair, will familiarize you with all the student organizations of CBS. This year it will be on September 20th from 10.00-15.00. From

the descriptions below you can find out which group you can relate to. You might even be able to spot some different stereotypes

within the student organizations in the halls of CBS.

Student Politics – University Democracy

Any democracy requires elections to elect candidates that represent the population. Similarly, CBS has a yearly university election where you can either run to become a student representative, or vote for your favorite candidate. CBS holds the national record for highest voting percentage and we hope that you will (and we urge you to) vote in the elec-tion in November.

The Study Board – Where you decide how your study program should run!The Study Board is the governing body of your specifi c education. This is where you develop the individual study programs, change the cur-riculum, add new courses, change exam formats etc. Basically, almost everything that involves your specifi c education can be changed via your study board, and students have equal positions in the board, alongside faculty and administration. Students at CBS have a proud tradition of being active study board members and have successfully reformed their educa-tions to the benefi t of future student – that means you!If you are interested in being part of administrating and developing a whole study program, you should consider running for the study board and help make CBS a better univer-sity. You will both have the chance to affect your own program and improve it for the future, as such passing the torch of your work to future students.

Being a student representative requires you to take on signifi cant responsibility and some work is unavoidable. However, it will also give you valuable experience and knowl-edge that will help you in your future career. You will get to know the inner workings of a massive institution and you will be part of growing movement at CBS, of active volunteer student representatives, all working to make CBS as good a place as possible, for all students.

As a student at CBS you have a say in how your time at university should

progress. CBS is governed by the Danish University Law, which proscribes

organizational democracy. This means that you as a student can take part in

deciding how CBS should develop – both on a very strategic and a very practical

level. Ultimately, you have the possibility to control exactly what University you

would like CBS to be.

Holy Crap! It’s Time For

Hakuna MatataFirst of all: Take it easy. Even though exams might be a bit frightening, re-member not to worry. The truth is, if you are smart enough to get into CBS (damn smart) you don’t have to fear exams at all. You’ve done it before and are more than capable of nailing that fearsome exam! Moreover, we can’t stress enough that exams aren’t everything! Five years from now (maybe a little longer) when you grad-uate from CBS, you won’t look down at your diploma and cry your eyes out for not getting a 12 (or even pass-

ing) in your fi rst exam. As a matter of fact, just receiving your bachelor or master degree from CBS is a great achievement in itself and will get you a long way in your future career. The biggest problem a lot of students face during exam time is that they are overly stressed, and therefore aren’t prepared to be best of their abilities. Once more, don’t stress – your fellow students are here to help you.

Prepare specifi cally for what you are facingOne of the most common mistakes

regarding exams is preparing by reading the curriculum and provided material, but NOT preparing for the actual exam. We all have different study techniques, and we have vastly different things on our curricula, but a common thing at CBS is that there is a formalized set of different exami-nations that you can face.

This means that if you are preparing for an oral exam, then you shouldn’t spend all of your time only reading the curriculum. You need to actually practice talking about it with other

It can be more than a little scary to

face your first exam as a student at CBS.

Once you start feeling familiar with life at

CBS, you are expected to excel at an exam.

A sudden overwhelming sense of “Holy

Crap!” spreads throughout campus in the

days leading up to the first exam of the

semester.

Thankfully, you are far from the first

student at CBS to worry about exams.

Many more have gone before you, and

usually the result is not too bad. This

article will address some general concerns

and formal requirements about exams,

which can help calm your nerves when

the “Holy Crap-feeling” starts getting a

little too overwhelming.

As a student there may be situations

where you don’t feel that your exam

or teaching was properly handled. In

such cases you have the right to fi le

a complaint. Read more at www.e-

campus.dk/studium/eksamensklager.

Exams! What To Do?

people, seeing as that is actually what you are going to do in your exam. Likewise, if you are preparing for a written exam, it’s not enough to just know in your head what you want to say – you need to practice actually writing it down on paper.

Moreover, if the exam is a 24 or 48-hour exam, having tried at least once before the actual exam to sit down for the specifi ed amount of time and focus on the curriculum, will be a great help for when the actual exam

comes. Preparing for the specifi c type of exam that you have to pass will greatly help reduce the “Holy Crap-feeling” that you will experience.

The vast majority of cases concerned with cheating at exams are proven to be unconscious! Take a minute to look into the formal requirements for your exam, as it is YOUR respon-sibility to know them and you will

get severely reprimanded even if you didn’t “mean” to cheat. The last thing you want is to get expelled from CBS for doing something you didn’t realize

was cheating.

Pay close attention to the re-quirements which are posted at your study’s home pages

on e-campus as well as on Learn. Always follow the rules, check up on them in advance and ask your fellow classmates or the study secretariat if anything is unclear.

Read more about examination rules at www.e-campus.dk/studium/eksamensregler.

Student Survival Guide:

Several places in Copenhagen offer a students discount. Besides the public transport, you can also ask for discount at hairdressers, the dentist, in stores ect. So remember to ask for a students discount! So remember to bring your student ID and ask for students discount!

If you without luck have posted the following update on Facebook: ”Hey friends I need a place to stay”, you can look for an apartment or a room on e-campus. Use your CBS username and password to log on to e-campus.dk, click at Cy-berCampus and afterwards at buy, sell & rent. As well as apartment announce-ments you can also fi nd second hand books and other things CBS students are selling. Otherwise look for the paper adds students post on the various notice boards in the halls of CBS. Links to apartment websites:www.fi ndroommate.dk, www.boligportal.dk, www.bolig1.dk, www.dba.dk

At the school for hairstylists you can get a haircut, get your eyebrows fi xed and your eyelashes coloured. Students from the school of hairstylists carry out the treatments so you need to be in good time and trust the students when sitting in the chair. But there is money to be saved, women pay 99 DKK for a haircut and men pay 49 DKK. Opening hours are from Monday to Friday from 9.00 to 15.00. All treatments are performed under the supervision of a teacher. Frisørskolen (school for hairstylists)Hovedkontor/ Elevbehandlinger (main offi ce/ students treatments)Vesterbrogade 26, 1620 København V, Phone: 33 24 05 33, www.kbhfrisoerskole.dk

Speaking of low budget gastronomy, bread is actually one of the things that are quite expensive! Bake your own bread and save money. At the price of 10 DKK you can easily bake two breads – including electricity costs for the oven. Put one of the loaves in the freezer so it doesn’t become stale. Do the same when you cook a lasagne, prepare a large portion and put the leftovers in the freezer. In the end it’s like fast food, only cheaper and healthier.

Pasta with ketchup – no thanks! You are going to live a

low budget life as a student but it doesn’t necessarily have

to be a boring one. In this guide we offer you a few tips and

tricks to show you how to save money without being forced

to eat pasta with ketchup every day.

Food, Flat And Fashion

Second-hand clothes are not only hip but also cheep. In Copenhagen you will fi nd lots of second hand stores, such as Røde Kors and København K (on Studi-estræde). If you don’t like the smell in second hand shops arrange a ‘fashion party’ with your friends, where you swap clothes. It is certain that your girl-friends have some clothes that they’ve never worn nor ever will.

Though most dentists offer a students discount, going to the dentist is still very expensive. At the school of dentistry you can get your teeth fi xed, almost for free. The only things you need to pay for are the materials. To get treated you need to show up personally in reception 3, Monday to Friday from 8.00 to 9:00 am. After a short examination you will get an appointment for treatment.

Perhaps you already know the coupon sites; www.downtown.dk and www.sweetdeal.dk. If not these are websites that offers a discount on everything from restaurants and wellness to outdoor activities. To get an overview of the ‘discount jungle’, three guys from CBS have started a website that brings all these discount voucher pages together in one. The webpage is called www.bownty.com. The webpage is in English and it’s free to register as a user. Fur-thermore another two guys from CBS have started a coupon page for drinks, register at www.drinkster.dk and receive discounts when you go out.
