Have you experienced offensive behaviour at DTU?

If you experience offensive behavior, whether it is sexually oriented, discrimination, or bullying, it is important to know the options DTU offers for help and support. Offensive behavior can be both major and minor incidents that feel offensive, discriminatory, or boundary-crossing. At DTU, there is room to talk about it and have a conversation.

Prevention and handling

DTU actively works to prevent and handle inappropriate behavior. We therefore encourage you to report offensive behavior, such as sexual harassment. DTU does not accept offensive behavior and encourages everyone to react and talk about it. Read more about the guidelines here.

Offers for students

Confidential conversation with a student counselor: Contact Kathrine Hougaard Madsen, Christian Jacobsen or Trent Coelli for an anonymous and confidential conversation about your experiences and the options DTU offers for support and help. All conversations can be anonymous and fully confidential if you wish. If your inquiry involves an employee, the student counselors work confidentially with HR to best handle your situation.

Conversation with the social policy coordinator from PF

Contact PF’s social policy coordinator at social@pf.dk or phone 7742 4493 for a conversation. PF works closely with DTU on offensive behavior issues.

Reporting an incident

We recommend contacting one of DTU’s contact persons for offensive behavior or HR for guidance on the process. You can also report incidents involving students directly to Study Director Jørgen Jensen (studiechef@dtu.dk, phone 2492 1699). If the incident involves an employee, you can report it directly to HR Office Manager Sabrina Sahl (sabsa@dtu.dk, phone 9351 1796). Note that reports cannot be anonymous.
