The Stockholm School of Economics is internationally recognized as one of Europe’s leading business schools. This small and selective institution enrolls approximately 2,000 students across a variety of undergraduate and graduate programs.
SSE is distinguished by its deep commitment to culture, arts, and social responsibility. These commitments make SSE a great match for The Swedish Program’s liberal arts curriculum. In other words, our partnership with SSE is not only great for Econ majors, but will also benefit students majoring in other social sciences and the humanities.
Swedish Program students have the unique opportunity to directly enroll in a course at SSE, and SSE students can enroll in select Swedish Program courses. This crossover gives students a chance to share the classroom with Swedish and international students.
The Student Association at SSE (SASSE) is one of the most active student associations in Europe, and Swedish Program students have full access to their events, athletic teams, clubs, and more. There are plenty of opportunities to meet SSE students through the many clubs and activities SASSE sponsors. In addition, SASSE organizes three specific events each semester where our students are able to easily meet SSE students.
SSE’s urban campus in central Stockholm is convenient and popular with students. You’ll be close to cafes, parks, restaurants, nightlife, shopping, concert venues, museums, and all forms of public transportation.
The economic reality for today’s college students is that finding the right job is difficult. Your educational choices are crucial to your success in finding fulfilling and financially rewarding employment after graduation. This is one of the reasons you tried so hard to get into the best college or university. By choosing a study abroad program with international prestige, you can also boost your chances of success after graduation.
The Swedish Program’s affiliation with the Stockholm School of Economics (SSE), one of Europe’s most highly recognized universities, will make you stand out when you become a candidate for graduate studies or when you begin your job search. One alum recently reported back to us that one of the first questions during their first-ever job interview was, “What was it like to study at SSE?” The most well-known multi-national corporations, investment and consulting firms, and non-profit organizations come to SSE every semester to recruit students.
We invite you to challenge yourself and choose The Swedish Program. Our commitment to high academic standards and academic and cultural integration at the Stockholm School of Economics will give you an invaluable competitive advantage as you move forward in your education and career.
