This is a list of universities and colleges in Denmark.
Prior to 2007, there were a few more universities, colleges and institutes of research which have now been merged into larger universities, for instance Aarhus School of Business and Danish School of Education (formerly Danish University of Education) which are now parts of the Aarhus University.
In addition to actual universities, there are also many independent professionally-oriented colleges in Denmark training students for jobs as teachers, nurses, journalists, artists, musicians, librarians, etc.
