Why study at IIIEE?
We asked our former students and
this is what they said:
About the Education and
the Teachers:

learning, e.g. multiple site visits and industry projects, creates a fun and
engaging study environment.

Sweden, Lund and the
IIIEE Building:

Because the experience is
completely satisfactory: Lund is a great place to live, the Institute is a
great place to study, and the people you meet is great to be around.
-
Unique study environment
right in the historic centre of Lund
-
Opportunities to experience
aspects of Swedish life from food to sauna to nature and back.

Beautiful (if not amazing)
building

Very Swedish environment

Israa Thiab, Jordan, graduated September
2009:
"I'm now on top of my job for
the third week after I've got back to Jordan, and there's a good reason I'm
sending this out to you right now.
So far, within the past 2
weeks, believe it or not, I've been able to relate many of the projects
I'm working on right now, to concepts, ideas and practical issues I've learnt
with you in the past year... and I can't describe to you how much I'm loving
it... every moment of it... and how much confidence I have in my ability
to work in this field. Thus, I want to thank you all for helping me reach where
I'm right now... I know it is too early to tell where I'm headed with all of
this, but I know it's something promising... and I shall keep you posted and
updated"
Monica Andrade, Ecuador,
graduated 2008:
"Coming from a social science
background, my experience at the Institute has been enormously enriching. I have
learned to conceive environmental issues from an integral perspective: economic,
technical and political. I have also discovered that the knowledge we bring from
different backgrounds and cultures can be so easily complemented and brings
excellent results when you learn to collaborate and articulate efforts with your
peers. This is the best lesson I take with me from the IIIEE!"
