We are pleased that you will enroll in Aalborg University's Doctoral School for Human Centered Informatics, as part of the International Leadership in Educational Technology (ILET) program.

This website is designed to help you prepare for your study abroad experience. It includes both practical and theoretical information, as well as exercises, cultural "tidbits," and contact with Ph.D. mentors.

Two sections of the website deserve special mention: An intercultural communication self-study guide, and some web-based instruction in the Danish language.

The website has been created by teams of students helped by staff and faculty advisers at ILET partner universities. Funding has been provided by a variety of sources, as indicated in the credits section.

We hope that you will find the information and exercises useful, and we welcome suggestions for improving the content and design.

Ole Prehn, Dean, Faculty of Humanities
