SLU is a world-class international university with research, education and environmental assessment within the sciences for sustainable life.
Its principal sites are in Alnarp, UmeƄ and Uppsala, but activities are also conducted at research stations, experimental parks and educational establishments throughout Sweden.
We bring together people who have different perspectives, but they all have one and the same goal: to create the best conditions for a sustainable, thriving and better world.
SLU develops the understanding and sustainable use and management of biological natural resources.
This is achieved by research, education and environmental monitoring and assessment, in collaboration with the surrounding community.
SLU is a world-class university in the fields of life and environmental sciences.
Orientation days (pdf) are intended for both international master students and exchange students. It is not mandatory to attend, and you do not have to attend both days, but we recommend it since you will get useful information about studies in Sweden and SLU while having fun and getting to know your classmates.
SLU's study counsellors can assist you with general queries on study and career choices and we can help you structure your thoughts and explore the opportunities available to you, to help you make a choice that is right for you.
Like all students in Sweden, those at SLU have the opportunity to become a member of a student union. At SLU there are eight different student unions, and students can join one union depending on the programme they are enrolled in.
