Novo Nordisk International Talent Program

University of Copenhagen and the Danish medical company Novo Nordisk developed the Novo Nordisk International Talent Program (NNITP) – a scholarship programme designed to attract international talent and to support talented students in gaining an international study experience as part of their degree programmes. The programme was an example of how universities and industry can collaborate to allow for resources, knowledge and competencies to come together to benefit both parties.

NNITP was established in 2015, and Novo Nordisk Ltd donated up to DKK 5 million annually towards the programme.

Novo Nordisk International Talent Program supported student mobility between UCPH and IARU partner universities. The programme covered a range of select academic fields pertaining to metabolism, insulin, haemoglobin, obesity, big data or digitalization.

The programme specifically supported student mobility within the areas of: Biochemistry, Bioinformatics, Biology, Biology-Biotechnology, Computer Science, Food Innovation and Health, Global Health, Health Informatics, Chemistry, Human Biology, Human Physiology, Human Nutrition, Immunology and Inflammation, Medicinal Chemistry, Medicine and Technology, Medicine, Molecular Biomedicine, Nanoscience, Pharmacy, Pharmaceutical Sciences and Public Health.

The programme concluded in 2024 and no new awards will be offered.

Testimonials

 NNITP Testimonial

I enjoyed the group-based learning that took place in the classes. There was always time set aside to discuss ideas and opinions, which I don’t experience as much at home.

It was great to be able to have classes with other international students and Danish students. The broad range of students meant that the discussions were diverse and full of different perspectives.

I was lucky enough to have spent 4 weeks in Copenhagen, on a course led by two very enthusiastic doctors. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and I wish I had done this sort of thing sooner!
