University of Helsinki

Feedback from the Participants

Here are some answers from the previous ISEW participants to our question:

What was the best experience during the ISEW in Helsinki?

• "The best experience was to meet a very international group, to get knowledge in each participants’ universities, to meet colleagues and feel a real Finnish atmosphere!"
• "To get information about the Helsinki University and to meet colleagues from there and from all over Europe for exchange of experiences."
• "This was a very special week and I will definitely recommend Helsinki to my colleagues and students as well! :) Thanks a lot to all of you! You were great!"
• "Exchange with Finnish partners and also the discussion with the entire group. Lots of information. Good combination of leisure activities included, e.g. sauna and city tour."
• "Everything was so great, that it is very hard to separate only one event or experience. I have got a lot of useful information not only from host staff, but also from other colleagues - participants."¨
• "The whole ISEW was the best exchange experience! I liked the sauna in the first evening a lot and the visit in the host department on Tuesday."
• "The ISEW 2010 in Helsinki has been, by far, the best event of this kind I've ever attended. Congratulations."
