Join us to celebrate internationalisation in research, education and exchange!
Save the date: October 23-27, 2023
Nord University invites all staff, students, and SEA-EU partners to International Week 2023. The week will be packed with useful and exciting information about internationalization in research, staff mobility, student exchange, and PhD mobility, as well as internationalization at home. All our SEA-EU partners are invited to join, so we hope this will be a professional and social opportunity for our staff and students to create networks, learn more about global issues and exchange experiences.
