INTERNATIONAL DAY 21.10.2026 – GO GLOBAL!

Are you interested in studying abroad, taking part in a shorter international mobility period or discovering student life around the world?

Join us for International Day to explore exchange opportunities, meet international students and hear genuine experiences of studying abroad. During the day, you can discover different countries and universities and ask everything you have always wanted to know about going on exchange.

POSTER FAIR – MAIN LOBBY 10.30-13.00

Meet international students currently studying at the University of Lapland! They will introduce their home universities and share what student life is like in different parts of the world. This is the perfect opportunity to ask someone who actually studies there what living and studying at the destination is really like.

Each university stand will also have a small activity for you—test your knowledge and learn something new at the same time!

The Outgoing Mobility Team will be available throughout the event to answer your questions about exchange studies and going abroad.
