The International Summer School (ISS) at the University of Oslo is an academic center for learning in an international context, and a forum for fostering intercultural understanding. Every summer from late June to early August the ISS welcomes some 500 students from all over the world to its wide variety of graduate and undergraduate courses, mostly within the liberal arts and social sciences. In 2009, UiO awarded the ISS the prize for “Best Learning Environment”. In 2012 the courses will last from June 23 till August 3.
