Editor's Notes
Dear students. It is a pleasure to welcome you to the University of Tromsø and to the Arctic. You and our other intn students make up 10% of our students. I’m glad to take this opportunity to give you a brief overview of this university and our surroundings. It’s actually a threefold welcome: to the north, to the city of Tromsø and in particular to the University of Tromsø – probably the best university in the whole world.
