At MISV we aim to create a world school that creates caring, agentic, internationally minded, knowledgeable and independent individuals. In an ever-changing world, we see critical thinking, democratic values and sustainability as an important foundation. We offer our students high-quality education that inspires action, self-awareness, and self-leadership for the world of tomorrow.
Mälardalen International School was founded by Industritekniska Gymnasiets AB´s owner Fredrik Svensson in close collaboration with Northvolt, Hitachi and Västerås municipality. We believe high quality education is the most important aspect for a sustainable future.
Every child is a very special individual who needs a welcoming, warm, safe but also challenging environment in which to grow. A child’s natural curiosity to explore his/her world gives teachers the basis on which to build learning experiences that will provide a solid foundation for the years to come. Mälardalen International School recognises the importance of the school years. We know that it is vital that each child receives a high-quality education. Our students have the best opportunities to continue growing into creative, resilient, independent, flexible and socially adept young global citizens.
Our students work together to establish Essential Agreements that guide their choices while at school. All members of the MISV community are respected and valued for their differences.
Our students become confident communicators in both English and Swedish. Students' language development is supported through meaningful, inquiry-based learning.
At MISV, we are dedicated to supporting all of our students as they realize their full potential. Our students are motivated to continually reflect on their growth as learners and action-takers.
