Sweden unites cutting-edge technology with concern for the natural environment. We pride ourselves on being among the forerunners of today’s technology. Sweden is the home of Blue tooth and the ATM, as well as enjoying one of the highest standards of living in Europe.
Sweden has a long and proud history of academic excellence, with outstanding universities dating back to the 15th century. Sweden is the home of the Nobel Prize, the world’s most prestigious academic distinction.
Sweden has one of the most ambitious educational evaluation programs in Europe. The aim is to maintain the country’s reputation for investigative research and independent thinking.
Laboratories at Swedish higher education institutions are equipped with modern instrumentation and there are numerous laboratory and practical assignments. These are combined with theoretical studies, such as study of published scientific articles.
Computers, mostly connected to the Internet, are available to the students in computer rooms on the campuses.
With rare exceptions, no tuition fees are charged for higher education in Sweden. At present, all students’ tuition fees are fully subsidized by the state. However, every student must pay a small Student Union membership fee each semester.
Students enrolled at a Swedish higher education institution (HEI) are allowed work in Sweden without a work permit. You do, however, need a residence permit.
Almost all Swedes speak fluent English. Many Swedish companies use English as their official working language. Foreign students find that this prevalence of English makes adapting to their new surroundings much easier.
Sweden is a safe and modern country in northern Europe, and it has accrued a spectacular reputation as an innovator and creative force. Sweden’s famed corporate brands - like Volvo, Ikea, Ericsson, H&M and Saab - complement its cultural brands - like Ingmar Bergman, Abba, Astrid Lindgren, Bjorn Borg, August Strindberg, The Cardigans and Greta Garbo.
Today, Sweden’s reputation for innovation is built on close cooperation between industry and academia. Swedish universities are renowned for their investigative research and independent thinking, and this reputation is cemented with rigorous quality control and nationally certified degrees. Sweden has one of the most ambitious educational evaluation programs in Europe, aimed at maintaining this competitive edge.
