University of the Arctic

 
  
Scandinavian Seminar is a founding contributor to the University of the Arctic. The UArctic is an international non-governmental organization dedicated to higher education in and about the Circumpolar North.
 
UArctic is a decentralized university without walls that develops programs of higher education and research, builds local and regional educational capacity, and stimulates cooperation among participating institutions. Our major contribution has been in the development of a Bachelor of Circumpolar Studies (BCS), an interdisciplinary approach to the natural environment, people, and cultures of the Circumpolar World. The BCS program addresses issues of sustainability which have overlapping environmental, economic, and political importance globally. Visit http://www.uarctic.org to learn more.
