Yakutsk State University Organizes north2north Information Session

Students who studied at universities and university colleges-UArctic members- in Norway (University of Tromso, Finnmark University college, University Center in Svalbard, Harstad University college) in Finland (University of Turku), in Sweden (Umeå University, Luleå University of Technology), in the USA (University of Alaska Fairbanks) gathered to tell about their academic and life experience and share their knowledge with potential N2N students and other interested students.

The students made presentations of their studies and life, answered various questions regarding academic courses, educational system, credit system at host institutions and distributed booklets and materials of host universities.

It is remarkable that this conference-seminar has become a student traditional event that is held annually and a good opportunity to disseminate Arctic knowledge, information on the University of the Arctic, its programs and possibilities. The conference was highlighted in the republic's mass media, and University website.
