CENTURIES OF INNOVATION AND CREATIVITY

Lund University is one of the oldest learning institutions in
Scandinavia. Officially established in 1666, Lund University can
arguably trace its roots to 1436 when it was recognised as a studium
generale, an institution of international excellence. Steeped in
centuries of tradition, Lund University has always been at the
forefront of innovation with its modern and dynamic approach.
We are considered one of Scandinavia's most outstanding
universities. One of our strengths is our unique disciplinary range
and our ability to generate boundary-crossing collaboration.
Student influence, internationalisation and close cooperation
with wider society are other characteristics of Lund University.
We have had the priviledge of educating many Nobel laureates,
prime ministers, a president and several notable leaders in society.

Lund campus
Lund University's main campus is located in
the city of Lund – a small, safe city steeped in
history with the healthiest and youngest popula-
tion in Sweden. Our students and researchers
represent 130 nationalities, making Lund a truly
international city.
Lund is located in southern Sweden and has a population of around

120 000. Copenhagen, the largest city in Scandinavia, is less than
an hour away by train or car, and Copenhagen Airport – the clos-
est major international airport – is only 35 minutes from Lund. In
addition, Lund is just a 10 minute train ride away from Malmö, the
third largest city in Sweden.
As one of the oldest cities in Sweden, dating back to 990, Lund is a

city of contrasts, where 1 000 years of history blend with modern
knowledge and ideas. The combination of businesses, students
and researchers from around the world has created Lund’s unique
character as a city of strong research-based global industries.
Lund is a part of Greater Copenhagen – one of Scandinavias' most
knowledge-intensive areas.
The city itself is compact and charming, with picturesque old

houses, cobbled streets and beautiful green surroundings. Student
cafés, nightlife, a vibrant and intellectually stimulating atmosphere,
rich culture and a wide assortment of leisure activities all contribute
to making Lund a memorable study destination.
The University lies in the heart of the city. In Lund, everything is

close at hand and within reach on foot or by bicycle, which adds
to its appeal. In addition, there is a comprehensive public transport
system including buses and trains to transport you in and around
Lund, Sweden and Copenhagen.

The ACADEMIC QUARTER is a
tradition at Lund University, which,
when applicable, means that classes
start 15 minutes past the scheduled
time. The tradition harks back to the
days before pocket watches, when the
ringing of the Lund Cathedral bells was
the method of time keeping. When
the bells rang on the hour, students
had 15 minutes to get to their lecture.
Today, the academic quarter is still
firmly rooted in the tradition of Lund
University and timetable planning.
Academic life
At Lund University, students experience an open, informal study environment, with
teachers and students usually on a first-name basis. This informal atmosphere promotes
personal as well as intellectual development. Teaching is often done in small groups,
which encourages dialogue and collaboration, and teachers are accessible outside of lecture
hours. Students are often tasked with group work, which simulates the real dynamics of
an international work environment.

Student life
Lund University is known for its vari-
ety of student organisations, including
the 'nations' of Lund, the Academic So-
ciety and student unions. Together these
student organisations have created many
long-standing student traditions, and their
combined activities, available through the
'Studentlund' membership, form the heart
and soul of student life in Lund today. It is
no surprise that Lund is considered the best
student city in Sweden!
