International University College

Konstfack is a university college with an international character. Our professors and teachers are recruited internationally and the students that participate in our Master’s programmes represent several continents. The internationalisation work contributes to the exchange of knowledge and increases understanding between countries, cultures and religions. In addition it will prepare you as a student for the world as your arena. Konstfack has exchange agreements and joint projects with some 60 universities and colleges in more than 25 countries. Konstfack receives about 70 international students each year. Approximately 30 of these students participate in studies conducted in English for our Master’s program. Exchange students are received within the framework of one of the programs in which we participate, such as the Nordic Council of Ministers’ Nordplus program, EU’s Lifelong Learning/Erasmus Program, and the Linnaeus-Palme program funded by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA).
