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! 🇸🇪🇩🇰

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.
