Founded in 1997, Åland UAS is the higher education institution of the autonomous Åland Islands — a unique demilitarised, Swedish-monolingual autonomous region of Finland with substantial self-government under a 1920 League of Nations settlement and the Åland Autonomy Act. Approximately 500 students. All instruction in Swedish. Located in Mariehamn. Note the domain: Åland uses .ax (its own ccTLD assigned in 2006), not .fi — unique among Finnish higher education.
