Student life and community

Once classes have finished for the day, there are plenty of things to do.

Most students live in halls of residence just five minutes from campus. Here, you can meet others in the kitchen, TV lounge, or over a game of table football.

Together, you can organise events such as pancake nights and quiz nights. You could watch a football match, enjoy a pint at the local pub on a Friday night, or explore the beautiful surroundings of Sisimiut.

Many students enjoy the tranquillity of the town and its beautiful natural surroundings. If you wish, you can immerse yourself in town life and the communities offered by local clubs. During the dark winter months, you can experience the Northern Lights.

”We have a small community of engineering students in our hall of residence. It’s really cosy.”
