Information material on arctic safety and security
It applies to students, teachers, researchers and staff who visit Arctic DTU Campus Sisimiut or Arctic DTU Research Station, that you need to familiarize yourself with the safety rules that apply for campus and the safety rules for travel and working in the surroundings. Be aware that you will have to pass an online quiz before your arrival. The quiz is based on the mandatory safety material listed at the bottom of the page where you also find the QR code for the quiz.
As a student, you will be introduced to Arctic safety at the beginning of the semester after arrival and you will have to complete the quiz within the first couple of weeks. All safety material is available for download to your tablet, iPhone and laptops, so you can carry it with you, and get access to it during fieldwork.
As a researcher, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with INTERACTs publication on Fieldwork Planning Handbook and INTERACT Communication and navigation handbook.
We recommend that you download INTERACT's Safety Pocket Fieldbook to your device before your field-trip, so that you always can access it during your trip.
You can find all materials at the bottom of this page.
