In 2017, Sweden’s medical faculties jointly established a prize for the internationalization of higher education at basic and advanced level. The purpose of the award is to encourage teachers and teaching teams and other teaching staff at the medical faculties to work for increased internationalization within the educations. A nomination committee at each medical faculty selects its local candidate for the award. The proposals are presented to the central prize committee, which finally appoints prize winners. The award is decided and announced at the annual dean’s meeting in the spring. The dean’s meeting 2024 will be held on 11-12 April.
