The Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, has cooperation agreements with a number of partner universities, mainly in Europe, through Erasmus+ and Nordplus.
International engagement is important to GIH and each semester we welcome exchange students from our partner universities to study one or two semesters at GIH in Stockholm.
