Interactivity schools

And speaking of UI… I’m looking for info on grad programs in interactivity. I’ve wanted to take NYU’s Interactive Telecommunications program for a while. But as much as I want to live in New York, it’s still in the US and I’m not sure I want that. So I’ve started to look at some program in other countries, prompted by Molly at Burning Man. Molly teaches at Interaction Design Institute Ivrea, in Italy. A couple days ago when I tried to go to their site, it was broken. Seems to be working now, so I’ll to read more about it.

Then there’s this Swedish school. Didn’t find much information on applying there as a foreign but non-exchange student.

Anyone have any other suggestions for good schools on interactivity, HCI or human factors? One problem I’m sure I’m going to run into is that I don’t really speak any languages other than English (though I took some Spanish and French in high school and could probably make some quick progress in those two languages). I’m particularly interested in the Netherlands and the Scandinavian countries.

    Supposed the U of W had a human interface lab. A cursory search got me this, http://www.hitl.washington.edu/ I haven’t really looked at it though.
