Abstract	Teaching and research in Danish universities are of high quality. The number of Nobel prizes awarded to Denmark is outstanding. Danish universities are among the best resourced in OECD countries. But they need to change and develop to respond to rapidly changing demands placed on them. Reforms are particularly needed to strengthen universities' contribution to society and the economy. This calls for major changes in the area of university governance and steering the system by the government. This report, produced for the Education Committee by a team of OECD experts, lauds the new University Act but proposes further steps to relax some of the hands-on management of the system by the government. The report proposes reforms in a number of other fields: internal management; international links; teaching and learning programmes; quality assurance systems; and research, innovation and evaluation. Steps are proposed to reduce high non-completion rates and the time taken in completing studies. Government also needs to consolidate research into smaller number of research institutes and linking them with the universities. (DIPF/Orig.).
