Saturday was Arrival Day at DIS! ⁠🇩🇰🇸🇪

Our students touched down in Copenhagen and Stockholm this weekend, marking the start of fall semester. DIS staff, faculty, and volunteers were there every step of the way, guiding students from the airport to their housing.⁠

Here’s to an incredible four months ahead. Welcome to Scandinavia, and welcome to DIS!⁠ 💫

As our final summer session comes to an end, we recap this amazing summer at DIS.

Students dove deep into their coursework, participated in Study Tours in different countries, and explored the cities that became their new homes.⁠

Our students recently celebrated the summer solstice in Scandinavia, witnessing nearly endless daylight and and participating in the local festivities! 🌞

Midsommar in Sweden is rich with century-old traditions: flower-crown making, dancing around the midsommarstång (midsommar pole), and sharing meals with loved ones. Meanwhile, Sankt Hans Aften in Denmark means bonfires, speeches, singing, and picnics.

Live from the field: our Arctic Experiential Studies cohort is in Greenland! 🌍⁠

Students spent this past weekend camping near a fjord outside Nuuk, where place-based learning came to life immediately — from climate change and geopolitics to eco-psychology.⁠

Over the next month, the group will explore Greenland’s landscapes, connect with local communities, and witness the region's rapidly changing environment up close.

This week, the DIS Festival brought spring semester to a close in both Stockholm and Copenhagen, celebrating our students' accomplishments over the past four months and sending them off with a proper farewell.⁠

Both festivals featured quite the lineup: musical performances, poster presentations, student-prepared food, merch giveaways, and a raffle with an enviable grand prize — a flight ticket back to Scandinavia.⁠

We are grateful to everyone who made this spring so special. Thanks for a transformative four months!⁠ 🇸🇪🇩🇰

"Stockholm was a great place for me to study, explore, and transform my life. The connections that I've made here, they're lifelong." —Trent, Davidson College

Hear from Wisdom ( College), Trent (Davidson College), Aaron (Duke University), and Hank ( University) on what makes DIS Stockholm the ideal place to study abroad. Their answer? A supportive community, small class sizes, and Scandinavia's largest city at your doorstep.⁠ 💙🇸🇪

Long Study Tours are underway, taking Core Courses to destinations across Europe for a week.⁠ 🧳🌍⁠

Learning takes many forms — from visiting Nordic design studios and exploring the Finnish wilderness, to cooking paella in Barcelona and glassmaking in Prague.⁠
