INTERNATIONALIZATION. Sweden’s medical faculties have set up a joint prize for the internationalization of first and second-cycle education in order to encourage their teachers and teaching teams to actively promote an international approach to teaching.
The prize is awarded to a teacher or a teaching team that has made the most effective contribution to raising the level of internationalization in higher education over the past three years by bringing an international dimension to their teaching and by improving the students’ global perspective. This may be achieved, for example, through the development of virtual international course components, through a new teaching experience in the international classroom, or through initiatives that encourage student and teacher mobility.
The prize of SEK 105 000 will be awarded annually for five years from 2017 onwards.
The prize was established collectively in May 2016 by Sweden’s medical faculties. A Nomination Committee at each participating medical faculty will select one candidate for the prize. The final winner will be decided by a central prize committee. The prize winner will be announced in May 2017.
