ABOUT I LISIMATUSARFIK IS GREENLAND’S ONLY UNIVERSITY surrounded by beautiful nature in the capital, Nuuk. Prior to 2007, Ilisimatusarfik was located in the historical Herrnhut-missions station from 1738. In early 2008, we took a substantial step forward by including various bachelor programs, and at the same time moved into the new and modern campus Ilimmarfik - a beautiful campus that incompasses education, research, documentation and communication. Today, Ilisimatusarfik consists of four institutes with 12 different education programs. We educate to both the private and public labor market, nationally and internationally. Our research and education programs span broadly within humanities, social sciences, natural sciences and health sciences, with a unique focus on Greenland and the Arctic.

Therefore, we consistlently work on creating strong bonds between the world of academia, the private and public sector. When we bring together professionalism and new ideas, innovation will thrive benefitting society. 6 Shaping the Arctic
