Roll out the drums and fire the confetti cannon!
Today, 2 September 2024, we celebrate a big event at Ilisimatusarfik - it's finally time for our semester start (see the full program here).
We have been very excited to welcome all our new students.
The day began with the traditional academic handshake, where our rector welcomed the new students to the academic world - and the new students also started the introduction to their new program.
To all our new students:
Welcome aboard this exciting academic adventure!
Together, let's make student life a party that never stops - filled with friendships and knowledge in abundance.
New master degree program in Law
This year, we are extra proud to offer our new master degree program in Law for the first time - and we have the pleasure of welcoming 12 new master students.
The program is designed to provide students with in-depth legal knowledge and the necessary skills to navigate complex legal issues.
We are excited about this new master degree program and its importance to the Greenlandic society. The need for qualified lawyers is great - and we look forward to our future graduates contributing to the Greenlandic society.
