Academic Council Debate Forum

Welcome to the Academic Council Debate Forum! The purpose of this forum is to promote open discussion on topics of interest to DTU staff and students across the organization and at all levels of management.

The forum provides a space for broad, collective discussions about DTU's affairs and future, including topics related to education, research, innovation, administration, and DTU's relationship with the surrounding society.

All DTU affiliates are welcome to contribute thoughtful, well-argued posts, preferably with a bit of edge to highlight different viewpoints.

Would you like to contribute?

Send your submission to AR-debat@dtu.dk. Please remember to sign your submission.

All contributions are reviewed by the editorial team, which decides whether to publish a contribution based on its relevance.

At its own discretion, the editorial team may reach out to relevant individuals for a comment. The comment will then be published alongside the contribution.

Contributions may be in Danish or English. Danish contributions will also be published in English using edited machine translation.
