Internationalisation
Internationalisation is a prioritised area at the School and is an important factor for maintaining high quality in education and research. Our internationalisation work provides good conditions to meet the challenges that globalisation in the area of health and welfare imply.
A great number of student-, teacher- and researcher exchanges are carried out at the School. For the last few years an expanding cooperation with Thailand, including one with the Thai Ministry of Health and Rangsit University in Bangkok, has been in focus.
The School has collaboration partners in among others Thailand, China, Japan, the USA, Great Britain, the Netherlands, Hungary, Austria, Lithuania, Spain and Tanzania. Within the Nordic countries collaboration takes place through a Nordic network, the Nordman Network.
We offer continuous English-language programmes and courses from first- to third-cycle levels.
