Opportunity Description

What is unique about this program?

At DIS Stockholm, you will build your semester by choosing a Core Course from one of nine Academic Programs that represent academic disciplines unique to Stockholm and Sweden's industry and educational interest and expertise, plus three or four elective courses that expand across 37 disciplines.  DIS courses will challenge you to examine topics from various perspectives. Learn how concepts and issues are perceived, lived, and theorized in Europe; and reflect on the cultural norms and values that shape you.  With DIS Stockholm, you will travel with your class and faculty on two course-integrated Study Tours in Europe, during which you will visit important sites and meet with local experts who add their perspectives to your knowledge of the field.

What is unique about Stockholm?

Stockholm is effortless to explore. Comprised of fourteen islands, with a public transit system that travels across waterways, the city is well connected. While some corners of Stockholm are characteristically urban, others are natural landscapes – making your next cross-country ski adventure or kayaking afternoon all within easy reach. 

While rich in history and culture, Sweden prides itself on progressive thinking, openness, diversity, and equality. As home to the Nobel Prize and a list of prestigious universities, institutions, and leading innovators, Stockholm offers the context of a capital led by forward-looking decision makers and scholars.
