Copyright

Whether you are writing assignments, conducting research, teaching, or developing software, copyright is relevant for you and DTU, and there are a number of rules, agreements, and policies you need to be aware of.

copyright

DTU does not use the copyright symbol © in the works created by employees, as Denmark is a member of the Berne Convention, and therefore it is implied that the author automatically has the copyright to their work.

It doesn't hurt to emphasize your copyright in the USA by using ©, but it has no significance in the rest of the world.
