Are you interested in internationalization and administration? Then you might be our new colleagues at the Office for International Education at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU).

The Office for International Education is one of 5 offices in the larger administrative entity called AUS – The Office for Study Programmes and Student Affairs. AUS handles all tasks in connection with student administration such as enrollment, registration for courses and exams, student guidance etc.

The open position is placed in the Office of International Education, where you will join a group of more than 20 highly competent colleagues. Together our assignment is to create the best possible framework for strong in- and outbound student mobility and contribute to the recognition of DTU as an international elite university with a global learning environment, who equip its graduates with a strong skillset to work globally.

The office is divided into four teams – and you will be placed in Team Exchange, which is made up of 16 colleagues. Team Exchange has student mobility at its very core – including all the processes that support and enable students to complete part of their education abroad or take a virtual course at a partner institution. The team consists of colleagues who work with international partnerships and educational collaboration, where semester exchange is at the centre, other colleagues work with the formal recognition of courses taken at other institution in terms of credit transfer – and yet other colleagues work with strategic initiatives with selected international partners.

The available position as student assistant:
The position mainly revolves around assisting with practical tasks which enable DTU students to go abroad. Our goal is to send as many DTU students on exchange as possible, and to make sure that students are aware of all the possibilities available to them. The new student assistant will help us solve a lot of different communicative and administrative tasks in this connection – both at the desk and through different events about study abroad opportunities.

The position is continuously adapted to the needs of the ever-changing portfolio of Team Exchange, as well as to the competences of the individual student assistant, but the following tasks are to be expected as part of the everyday work of the student assistant: 

• Data entry and information updates in various databases and systems.

• Arranging / taking care of practicalities for study abroad events
• Assisting in handling documentation for students in connection with their exchange stays.
• Assisting in case work in connection with scholarships.

• Various ad hoc office tasks.
• Helping out keeping the office and kitchen nice and clean.
