The Nordic-Baltic Culture Center (below referred to as NBCC) is located in one of the original USST buildings, a historic three-story house in the heart of the campus. NBCC unveiled in October 2013.
NBCC is based around the culture exchange program between USST and Nordic-Baltic counterparts, we collaborate with colleges and universities from the rest of the European countries at the same time.
