Study Swedish in Uppsala, Sweden and meet the world

Uppsala International Summer Session organizes summer courses in the Swedish language. Since 1963 thousands of students have attended our courses. Their reasons and backgrounds vary, but after attending UISS they have at least one thing in common: a better proficiency in the language and a deeper understanding of the Swedish culture. Every year 35 - 40 students return to the UISS.

UISS offers a variety of courses and great optional longer trips. Swedish language courses are offered at all levels, from complete beginners to very advanced. Please note that you need to be at the A2+ level to apply for a two or six week course. The duration of the courses varies from 2 to 8 weeks. If you already have some understanding of the language please take a placement test before applying.
