About ISU Programs:
The International Swedish University Programs (ISU) was established in 1975 under the auspices of the University Extension division at Lund University - Folkuniversitetet. ISU was created in the spirit of promoting international understanding and aims to increase knowledge of Swedish language and culture. A Swedish course at ISU Programs gives you all the advantages of a school with 30 years experience of quality intensive Swedish language courses. Our teachers are highly qualified native speakers, well-educated and experienced with working with international students. They are often consulted by swedish authorities and institutions for development of syllabuses, tests and new ways of teaching. Some of our teachers have written popular course literature for "Swedish for foreign students" courses, which is used both in Sweden and abroad.
