We have a tradition of making good use of the offers available at companies and educational institutions. In connection to this, we have collaborated with Lundbeck, Chr. Hansen, Delta, Novozymes, and Vejle Hospital. As a part of our natural sciences teaching, we regularly visit researchers at the University of Copenhagen and DTU, just to name a couple.

At Birkerød Gymnasium, we hire only the best and our science teaching is no exception. We have several teachers with a research background or experience from industry. With two science coordinators and professionally interested teachers, BG always keeps up-to-date on the latest research and professional offers within the natural sciences. Our teachers also produce teaching material such as the Biotechnology book series "Basic Biotechnology". We collaborate across the natural science subjects at all levels with some well-developed multidisciplinary courses and more in the pipeline. Our science teachers work continuously to develop science at BG. As a member of the Danish Science High Schools, we contribute to the further training of teachers in the science subjects.

In the science subjects at Birkerød gymnasium, we have a strong focus on experimental work. Experiments are therefore a natural focal point in all major natural science projects such as SROs and SRPs at STX and IA's at IB. It is an area where we benefit, among other things, from our location close to DTU and KU, where students experience modern laboratories and advanced experiments. We also focus on experimental experiments involving students, where the students themselves have to develop experimental designs that can make them smarter about specific issues (6F and IBSE).

At Birkerød Gymnasium, we work with the UN's global goals. All STX 2gs are allowed to test their innovative abilities in a week-long course called GLOBAL GOALS, supported by the Foundation for Entrepreneurship on innovation and the global goals. Here the students collaborate with the Red Cross on solutions that can lead us towards the UN's global goals. At IB, work is also being done on the world goals with a focus on natural sciences. This is done as part of a "Collaborative Science Project". Here the students produce products from recycled materials which are sold for the benefit of the Red Cross. At the same time, the students learn about the materials and their influence on the global goals with a focus on the natural sciences.

Every year, we transform BG into a big UN conference where high school students from all over the world participate to discuss major political issues. Test your skills as a politician, journalist, or event coordinator.

Being able to participate in a discussion and being able to argue one's case is an important competency in a democratic society. We want to support the development of this skillset at BG, and therefore we offer a debate club where we acitively participate in debate competitions with other schools. You will also have the opportunity to sharpen your argumentation skills in our MUN Society and at the school's BIGMUN (Big Model UN) conference.

Every year, BG's students participate in the Red Cross High School fundraiser. This event is always kick started in the afternoon, where the school's ambassador's talk about the fundraiser and the year's goal over a cup of coffee. Some of collections through the years have gone toward medical care and protection for war-affected children in Syria and Yemen, or vulnerable children in Denmark who have been affected by the corona situation. At BG, we are proud to have a large base of volunteers who have faithfully spread and awareness and raised money for the Red Cross.

The Red Cross Day is a themed day for all 2g classes with a social studies subject. The day give students insights into the Red Cross's efforts worldwide with exciting workshops on how the Red Cross operates internationally, politically, and humanitarianly.

We collaborate with Birkerød's local Red Cross shop with a joint focus on the UN's Global Sustainability Goals and recycling. One of the ways we do this is by oranizing a clothes bazaar at BG and hosting a sustainable fashion show with re-used clothing.
