Scandinavian Language Courses in UO Study Abroad Programs

Some students who major or minor in Scandinavian Studies complete part of their language course work in a UO-sponsored overseas study program in Scandinavia. This opportunity is particularly useful for students who wish to use Finnish as their primary Scandinavian language, because the UO is seldom able to offer a third year of this language on campus. The study sites listed below allow students to continue their study of Scandinavian languages while studying in Scandinavia. Please follow the links to read more about a particular program.

Scandinavian Literature and Culture Courses in UO Study Abroad Programs

Many students who major or minor in Scandinavian Studies also complete part of their course work while studying in a UO-sponsored overseas study program in Scandinavia. In particular, there are courses available at each UO study site in Scandinavia that can be applied toward the required literature and culture courses for the Scandinavian Studies major or minor.
