The Study in Sweden team together with the Swedish Embassy is now at the International Exhibition & Conference on Higher Education (IECHE) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Five Swedish universities are also present at the fair: Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm University, Uppsala University, Chalmers University of Technology, and University of Borås.
The Swedish booth stands out with the little red and white ”House of Sweden”. We have had thousands of students visiting us and asking us questions about studies in Sweden, most of them interested in medicine, dental hygiene, engineering and business.
The IECHE is a big event in Riyadh and the fair is heavily advertised and several TV- and radio channels are reporting from the fair. Both Karolinska Institutet and Uppsala University was interviewed live on Saudi TV.
