THE SUBJECTS

At EUH you can choose between a large number of subjects that all have one thing in common: there are no qualifications as long as you are open, curious, and want to try something new. (With the exception of music, for which you need to be familiar with at least one instrument). You will find that we offer subjects that differ from what your previous school offered. This is your chance to choose subjects that you have always wanted to. Regardless of whether you like music, being creative, or sports, we definitely have something for you. And remember: You do not need to have held a camera in your hand to choose photography and you do not need to have been on stage to choose drama.

The terms are divided into three subject periods, where you will choose three subjects to attend in every period. All in all you will have more than 30 different subjects to choose from, but you can only manage to attend nine subjects in one term. In the first week the teachers will give you an introduction to the subjects and then you will make your pick.

Below you can read and watch movies about our main subject areas, under which over 30 different subjects will be available to choose from.

GREEN ACTIVISM

Global warming, smog, plastic in the ocean og consumerism that has taken over. The problems for modern society are many and you can feel small and unimportant in the worlds big environment debate. We will try to take the power back, and do something about it, by engaging ourselves locally. We are always working hard to make the school more sustainable, and one of the projects is a self-sustaining forrest/garden, which should be our teaching space, and provide delicious vegetables to the kitchen. 

Are you feeling powerless in the face of the climate crisis? In our subject "Green Activism" you will learn how you can make a difference for people and nature around you.

COMMON SUBJECT: CITIZENSHIP

Once a week, all students take a class called 'Citizenship'. During these classes, you will delve into topics that will help you become capable, active, and conscious citizens. This can either be a discussion class, lecture, or activity, depending on the week's topic. You will obtain more knowledge about society, economy, sustainability, the environment, and other interesting topics. In the past we have had classes about the fashion industry, Danish politicians have visited, and you may even be asked to present about your home country.

FILM

Choosing film allows you to become familiar with all aspects the subject. You will be making your own films for YouTube together with other students, handling the entire process yourselves: from idea to finished film, you film and edit on your own using our computer lab. Or you can choose a film discussion class in which you will be watching and analyzing films together with other students. Film classes in the past have been art film, documentary film, making music videos, or discussion classes about Tarantino's films for example. 

PHOTOGRAPHY

Whether you are already expressing yourself through images or you have never held a real camera before, here is your opportunity learn how to take a good photograph, but also give it meaning. In order to make pictures you have to get out into the world and learn the language of photography. We offer digital photography courses as well as an analogue course. The digital photography courses explore many genres within photography such as art, landscape, staged, portrait (there is a small studio available to use), and photojournalism, which in the past has also been a separate class. There is a computer lab where students will learn how to edit their photos in Adobe Lightroom. Classes are a mix of practical and theory based work but we will focus mainly on practical hands-on work. 

POLITICS, PHILOSOPHY AND PSYCHOLOGY

The main purpose in our academic courses – wether it is politics, philosophy or psychology – is to provide our students with as much knowledge that we can on the topic at hand. And for that knowledge to contribute to your personal development and growth. Our courses range from classical perceptions on politics and ethics to a handful of more original courses on gender, international relations (geopolitics), the human nature, meaning of life, psychic development and wellbeing. Most of the classes is guided by Lars A and consist of presentations, text excerpts, articles, movies, and a lot of conversation and dialogue.

With peace of mind and body you create restitution, greater freedom of movement and you become aware. You are guided into the positions with a focus on the breath, the positions are kept relaxed for 3-5 min, where you achieve deep and calm stretches that both smooth muscles, joints and connective tissue. Everyone can join in and everyone can benefit from practicing yoga.

We develop in unison as well as individually no matter if you play the drums, guitar, or provide the backing or lead vocals.
