SCIPS Research Seminars

The SCIPS is a policy-centered research institute accredited by the Swedish Research Council. We are actively engaged in research activities of policy-oriented studies and publication. For that purpose to be maximally fullfilled, we have launched a series of seminars for researchers, policy-makers and those who are interested in Scandinavian as well as Korean politics and policies in general. Please refer to the schedules for the autumn and winter seasons below.

- All the seminars planned will be held in our auditorium located at Bruksvägen 11 (Building Brukskontor), Tumba. For further information, contact info@scips.se, 072-001 5377. Click here for a map!
