Promote Northern Education Through UArctic
Opportunities for Marketing and Promotion
UArctic offers exclusive opportunities to member institutions to market their studies, which are also of great value to students seeking education opportunities on northern issues. The UArctic Study Catalogue is a one-stop shop that offers current and prospective students a chance to search their topic of choice and quickly visualize the many ways that subject can be studied across the Arctic. Students can then visit the institution’s own web pages to find out
more information. This is an ideal marketing opportunity for members to promote their northern courses and programs to those interested in learning more about the region and pursuing studies relevant to the North.
Each UArctic member institution is committed to our mission and values, and collectively represent the world’s leading expertise on northern science and knowledge. No matter what you are interested in studying about the North, you are sure to find the right program or
university for you.
UArctic Academic Endorsement
Our members can seek UArctic Academic Endorsement for studies that strongly embody our mission and values. This status can offer additional visibility and esteem to member institutions by endorsing key courses and programs.
The application process is open three times a year. To be eligible, courses and programs should demonstrate strong northern relevance in content and learning outcomes, as well as substantial support of UArctic values and practice: respect for multiple systems of knowledge, promoting multidisciplinary understanding, and balance across different regions of the North. Furthermore, the applying institutions have to display a strong international networking component such as delivery location, joint teaching or curriculum development, or inclusion of student and faculty mobility.
Approved courses and programs obtain an additional prestigious mark of quality for their respective institutions, and are promoted to the UArctic network via various highlights on the UArctic website, in the Study Catalogue, and mentions in the news and on social media. Additionally, those institutions are granted the right to issue UArctic certificates to students who complete their endorsed program or course.
In essence, this is another chance for all members to raise their profile at home, as well as on the international Arctic platform.
