Annotation

Internationalisation at Copenhagen university (UCPH) appears a disputed field where contradictory language regimes bump, muddling the linguistic organisation. Whilst the Danish staff views English use as key way to solve internationalisation-linked dares, English obfuscates rather than eases the main internationalisation-linked interest of the foreign staff: grasp of Danish workplace culture and university administration.
