The city campus of HIG provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Gavle has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. The university has a library, in the collection of which you will find not only textbooks and scientific works, but also works of the classics, modern literature and much more. The exchange of intercultural experience occupies a special place in training at HIG. The educational institution regularly invites foreign students to participate in exchange programs and organizes various joint events.
