Birkerød Gymnasium, located just north of Copenhagen, is a public institution providing the two-year International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme alongside traditional Danish secondary tracks. The school is situated on a campus surrounded by woodland, creating a focused environment for its 1,200 students. It features an on-site boarding house that accommodates 100 residents from over 60 different cultures, fostering an international community within a Danish context. The school is particularly recognized for its science profile, having been named "School of Science of the Year" in 2019. Students benefit from partnerships with Danish universities and corporations for experimental research. A major annual highlight is BIGMUN, one of Scandinavia’s largest Model United Nations conferences, which brings together hundreds of students globally to debate international politics. For athletes, the school serves as a Team Denmark Education Partner, offering specialized support for elite sports students to manage their training and academics simultaneously.
