Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, UCPH

Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences (SUND) is a part of the University of Copenhagen and is among the largest faculties for health and medical sciences in Europe. SUND contributes to the understand­ing of disease and it's prevention, health promotion, diagnostics and treatment. The Faculty is consequently a key player in addressing some of the greatest societal challenges of our times. SUND's academic range, excellent teaching and research environments and substantial investment in new buildings and infrastructure provide an ideal platform for achieving our objectives. Our locations on Sealand and in the capital facilitate interaction with companies, regions, hospitals and local authorities to the benefit of clinical research, students, citizens and patients. SUND will mobilise the new opportunities created by the merger of the medical, pharmaceutical, veterinary and animal sciences to refine its value­ generating collaborations with the business community and with other knowledge­ institutions in Denmark and abroad. In these endeavours, we will make the most of our greatest asset – the more than 4,700 skilled staff, including 1,500 innovative PhD students and more than 8,000 committed under­ graduate students that together constitute the heartbeat of the Faculty. -> For available positions visit: www.employment.ku.dk -> Follow us on www.facebook.com/sundku -> Follow us on Twitter: @UCPH_health -> Browse videos with our research: www.youtube.com/user/UCPHhealthsciences/
