==Campus== [[File:DTU 03-05-06 06.jpg|thumb|Main building in Lyngby.]] The university is located on a plain known as ''Lundtoftesletten'' in the northeastern end of the city of [[Kongens Lyngby|Lyngby]]. The area was previously home to the airfield [[Lundtofte Flyveplads]]. The campus is roughly divided in half by the road Anker Engelunds Vej going in the east–west direction, and, perpendicular to that, by two lengthy, collinear roads located on either side of a [[parking lot]]. The campus is thus divided into four parts, referred to as quadrants, numbered one through four in correspondence with the conventional numbering of quadrants in the [[Cartesian coordinate system]] with north upwards. === DTU Risø Campus === The Risø Campus ({{coord|55|41|35|N|12|05|54|E|type:edu_region:DK|display=inline}}) is a satellite campus north of [[Roskilde]] which covers an area of more than 2.6 square kilometres. It houses a number of DTU's institutes, as well as [[Aarhus University]]'s Department of Environmental Science and Department of Bioscience. The campus was formerly the site of the [[Nuclear power in Denmark#Risø National Laboratory|Risø National Laboratory for Sustainable Energy]] ({{Langx|da|Nationallaboratoriet for bæredygtig energi}}), a scientific [[research]] organization established in 1956 and merged into DTU in 2007, before finally being dissolved on 1 January 2012. Wind Atlas Analysis and Application Program (WAsP) is a tool used in the [[wind energy]] industry to simulate wind flow over terrain and estimate the long-term power production of [[wind turbine]]s and [[wind farm]]s. It has been in development by Risø and DTU Wind Energy for over 30 years, and runs on PCs using [[Microsoft Windows]]. === DTU Campus Village === [[File:Campus Village Containers.jpg|thumb|Panorama of DTU Campus Village in winter.]] The Campus Village is an international student housing complex on the university's Lyngby campus at Elektrovej 330.<ref>{{cite web|date=|title=DTU kort|url=http://www.dtu.dk/upload/administrationen%20-%20101/vejviser/dtu_kort_uk240907.pdf|accessdate=24 April 2011|website=DTU|archive-date=19 July 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110719152407/http://www.dtu.dk/upload/administrationen%20-%20101/vejviser/dtu_kort_uk240907.pdf|url-status=dead}}</ref> It houses up to 224 international students, most of them staying for the duration of a semester or an academic year, and it is made up of identical red containers arranged in rows, housing up to ten students each.<ref name="DTU2014">{{cite web|date=25 November 2014|title=Campus Village|url=http://www.dtu.dk/english/Education/International-Student-Guide/For-admitted-students/Accommodation/Campus_Village|publisher=[[Technical University of Denmark|DTU]]|access-date=6 November 2023|archive-date=23 December 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171223165944/http://www.dtu.dk/english/Education/International-Student-Guide/For-admitted-students/Accommodation/Campus_Village|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Can Robots Mindstorm: Challenge your creativity with LEGO|url=https://best.eu.org/student/courses/event.jsp?activity=edpww7p|access-date=|website=best.eu.org|language=en}}</ref> The Campus Village was constructed in the summer of 2001, and was opened as an international student dormitory starting in fall 2001.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Polytech photos|url=http://www.polytechphotos.dk/index.php?CatID=1858|website=Naturvidenskabelig fotodatabase|language=da|access-date=6 November 2023|archive-date=8 August 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070808183740/http://www.polytechphotos.dk/index.php?CatID=1858|url-status=dead}}</ref> Residents staying in Campus Village may be participants of exchange or bilateral agreement programs between DTU and their home university. Besides the Campus Village, several other dorm facilities are offered on campus. These are handled and rented out by UBSBOLIG.
