During its history, the Department has grown from a one-person institution to comprise a teaching staff of twelve full-time faculty in Scandinavian and Baltic Studies. Adjunct faculty whose appointments are in other Departments make their expertise available in a variety of courses with considerable Scandinavian content. Affiliate faculty, likewise, occasionally teach and serve as valuable resources to our students. With a total enrollment of approximately 37,000 students at the University of Washington, the Department enrolls 2,000 undergraduates annually in its many courses. The Scandinavian Department began offering an M.A. program in 1948 and has offered a Ph.D. program since 1967. Graduates from the Department have established careers in business, the professions and education. Graduate seminars are offered in Scandinavian literary genres, medieval literature, mythology, folklore, drama, film, politics, history, Old Icelandic and linguistics.

The primary mission of the University of Washington is the preservation, advancement, and dissemination of knowledge. The University preserves knowledge through its libraries and collections, its courses, and the scholarship of its faculty. It advances new knowledge through many forms of research, inquiry, and discussion; and disseminates it through the classroom, the labratory, scholarly exchanges, creative practice, international education, and public service. The UW is located on 703 acres in Seattle's northeast residential area, a beautiful setting on the shore of Lake Washington and Portage Bay. The combination of this spectacular setting with buildings in both neo-Gothic and modern styles give the campus a distinctive character. Instruction and research at the University of Washington are supported by a library system housing more than five million volumes. Its media center, four theaters, concert hall, art gallery and museum provide cultural stimulation and entertainment throughout the year. One of the most beautiful places on campus is the Grieg Garden. Dedicated in 1990, it contains a complex range of plant diversity, featuring European Birch to commemorate Seattle's connection to its sister city of Bergen, Norway. The centerpeice of Grieg Garden, a bronze bust of Edvard Grieg (1843-1907), was erected in 1917 by the Scandinavian Societies of the Northwest and Alaska. The bust was sculptured by F. H. Frolich and rests on a marble base designed by Carl Gould.       Editorial Board   Staff Head of Department: Dr Claire Thomson, Lecturer in Scandinavian Film Departmental Administrator: Stephen Cadywold Dr Christopher Abram, Lecturer in Medieval Scandinavian Studies; Deputy Head of Department and Chair of Departmental Teaching Committee Margrethe Alexandroni, UCL Teaching Fellow in Norwegian Dr Haki Antonsson, Lecturer in Medieval Scandinavian Studies; Departmental Graduate Tutor Dr Helena Forsås-Scott, Senior Lecturer in Swedish (currently on research sabbatical) Dr Mary Hilson, Senior Lecturer in Contemporary Scandinavian History (currently on research sabbatical in Helsinki) Annika Lindskog, Lecturer in Swedish; Admissions Tutor and Year Abroad Tutor Dr Tom Lundskær-Nielsen, Senior Lecturer in Danish and Chair of the Board of Examiners Dr Daisy Neijmann, Reader in Icelandic Language and Literature and Departmental Tutor Dr Jakob Stougaard-Nielsen, UCL Teaching Fellow in Danish and Programme Tutor for BA Language and Culture Other faculty: Dr Titus Hjelm, Lecturer in Finnish Studies (Department of East European Languages and Cultures, SSEES) Honorary Research Staff Page last modified on 23 January 2009 by Claire Thomson Welcome Departmental News Events & Seminars Undergraduate Postgraduate Medieval Scandinavia Staff Dr Christopher Abram Margrethe Alexandroni Dr Haki Antonsson Karin Charles Dr Helena Forsås-Scott Dr Mary Hilson Dr Tom Lundskær-Nielsen Annika Lindskog Dr Daisy Neijmann Dr Jakob Stougaard-Nielsen Dr Claire Thomson Stephen Cadywold Research Contact Us Links Diane Adachi is the Director for International Relations at the University of Washington.
