Biographical or Historical Information

"In 1997, the Nordic Initiative was created with a vision, 'To provide extraordinary educational, intellectual, cultural, technology, research, trade and economic benefits and opportunities for students and citizens of the Upper Midwest, Norway and other Nordic countries.' The program focuses on student-exchange programs in medical, law, engineering, business, history, communication and other fields of study. Having survived the chopping block on more than one occasion, UND's Nordic Initiative is the second largest Norwegian program in nation, having hosted over 90 groups and dignitaries."
