Description:
The University of Lapland at Rovaniemi, on the Arctic Circle, is the most northern university in Finland and the European Union. It is a diversified centre for education and research, where science and arts come together in a unique fashion. The four faculties of education, law, social sciences and art and design - both combined and as separate units - all form an aggregate that will creatively meet the challenges of the coming millennium with courage and new courses of action.
