Útdráttur:The aim of this paper is to outline the progress of the University of
Akureyri and its effect on regional development in Northern Iceland during the
period of 1987–2012. A case study methodology was used, drawing upon
historical material, official sources, and interviews. The main findings are that
the university has greatly stimulated knowledge-based development in
Northern Iceland. It has enhanced regional innovation dynamism by
strengthening human, relational, structural and social capital of the area. This
paper has drawn attention to diverse positive effects of a small university with
regard to regional- and knowledge-based development. As such, it might serve
as a catalyst for further research in this area.
