About the department

Our comprehensive teaching and research programmes cover linguistic, literary, cultural and historical studies in English, German, Dutch, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Romanian, a world-wide field in which we work with both historical and contemporary topics, often with special emphasis on the interplay between these linguistic and cultural areas and Danish language and culture. 

The Department of English, Germanic and Romance Studies hosts Centre for Latin American Studies, the University of Copenhagen's Translation Centre and Centre for Internationalisation and Parallel Language Use (CIP) as well as the PhD Programme for Transnational and Migration Studies (TRAMS).
