The Circumpolar Studies Core Courses are offered online in the Fall and Winter Semester each Academic year. Students from all UArctic member institutions, and those who are not members and would like to study as on Open Learner, are invited to sign up to study northern topics in online global classrooms with students from Russia, Greenland, Denmark, Canada, Alaska, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Iceland!

Courses are worth 6 ECTS, or 3 credit units at most North American institutions. The language of instruction is English. Tuition and other fees are charged only by a student’s home institution, where applicable. Credit will be recorded at the offering institution and may be transferred to a student’s home institution after successful completion of the course. Students must contact their site coordinator for official approval and for information on credit transfer before registering.
