Education Opportunities

The University of the Arctic (UArctic) is a cooperative network of universities, colleges, and other organizations committed to higher education and research in the North. Our members share resources, facilities, and expertise to build post-secondary education programs that are relevant and accessible to northern students. Our overall goal is to create a strong, sustainable circumpolar region by empowering northerners and northern communities through education and shared knowledge.

You can use the Study Catalogue to find northern-relevant courses and program offered by our member institutions.

Are you a student aged 18 to 26 and from one of the Nordic countries with a passion for sustainability, culture, and global collaboration? Apply now for a unique travel grant and join the Arctic conversation in Anchorage, Alaska in spring 2025!
