The lake is close by and one will often find our students there on the weekends. Stockholm, with all it has to offer, is only 45 minutes away by train. The UISS teaches all classes at Vuxenskolan, a modern facility in the centre of Uppsala. Computers are available for writing or e-mailing. The weekend trips to Helsinki and V rmland are unforgettable experiences for those who participate.
Many students take part in sports activities during the weekends and after classes.
Two highlights during the summer are the potluck dinner and the farewell dinner. Students bring to the potluck dinner food that is typical for their homelands, serving up tastes from all corners of the globe. After dinner the banquet room is cleared for a night of dancing. Spending a summer together with people from 40 different countries, ages 18 - 65, with different backgrounds, is a valuable, interesting and fun experience, one which you will not easily forget. In short, I think the UISS has a lot to offer and I can assure you that you will have a great summer with us, as you combine your studies with interesting and fun experiences.
