Chances of securing both relevant student jobs and money jobs are good because of the many international companies in the region and the international vibe in the city. 

In Vejle, you will settle in quickly and enjoy the mix of opportunity, quality of life and a city that’s easy to call home.

It is quite easy to find accommodation in Vejle, and the local student city guide is always ready to help, if you need it.

Housing comes in different variations, and the city is regularly building extra accommodation, so chances are good of finding one to suit your needs and wishes - regardless if you prefer a dormitory, shared housing, youth housing or private rentals. 

Some student housing options offer common social activities to make it easier to make new friends and feel like a part of the local community.

The city of Vejle is centrally located in Denmark in a region where global giants like the LEGO Group, Siemens Gamesa, Danfoss and many more are driving innovation.

From day one, students at SDU Vejle will work on real-world cases and have direct access to internships and student jobs in small and large, local and international companies.
