Helen Dannetun

Vice-Chancellor of Linköping University

Welcome to

Linköping University!

Study information

Linköping University (LiU) has four

faculties that cover a wide range

of study ﬁelds.

ARTS AND SCIENCES. The Faculty of Arts and

Sciences oers bachelor’s and master’s

programmes, as well as single-subject

courses within about 40 subject areas.

Studies at the faculty are characterised by

in-depth subject knowledge, interdiscipli-

nary working methods and an international

outlook. Master’s programmes fully taught

in English are oered, for example Business

Administration, International and European

Relations, Applied Ethics, Gender studies,

Child studies, Environmental studies,

Statistics and Data Mining.

EDUCATIONAL SCIENCES. Teacher training builds

upon a set of core courses in general education.

These are designed and adapted to ﬁt dierent

school levels and subject specialisations

while providing a common knowledge base

and giving insight into theories and methods

of educational science. Course content in-

corporates sociology pedagogics, psychology

and philosophy. Educational research is

closely linked to dierent school systems

and pedagogical settings. International

outreach is strengthened through exchange

programmes with teacher training colleges

both in and outside Europe. The faculty oers

master’s programmes taught in English,

both on campus and via distance learning.

HEALTH SCIENCES. The Faculty of Medicine and

Health Sciences oers study programmes

in: Medicine, Nursing, Occupational therapy,

Physiotherapy, Speech and language

pathology as well as Medical biosciences.

Problem-based learning (PBL), early inte-

gration of theory and practice, community

orientation and health promotion are key

concepts for the study programmes at the

Faculty of Health Sciences. Integrated train-

ing of future doctors, nurses and health care

professionals gives a better understanding

of the professional roles in the workplace.

SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING. The Faculty of

Science and Engineering is one of Sweden’s

major faculties in the ﬁeld and has an inter-

national reputation for high-quality educa-

tion and research. The Faculty of Science

and Engineering oers around 30 bachelor’s

programmes within Engineering, Biology,

Chemistry, Computer Science, Physics and

Mathematics. In addition, about 15 inter-

national master’s programmes are oered

every year.

Campuses

Linköping University has three main

campuses where education and research

are conducted:

• Campus Valla – located in Linköping,

and about three kilometres from the

city centre. The majority of students

and researchers are based here.

• University Hospital Campus – located

in Linköping at the hospital of national

importance, houses the Faculty of

Medicine and Health Sciences.

• Campus Norrköping – located in the

centre of Norrköping. About a quarter

of all LiU students study here.

Linköping University also has a smaller

campus – Campus Lidingö – located in

Lidingö, in Stockholm. Carl Malmsten

Furniture Studies is based here.

Academic year

The academic year consists of two semesters.

The autumn semester usually runs from the

middle or end of August to mid-January and

the spring semester from mid-January to

the beginning or middle of June. There is

usually a teaching break of one or two

weeks at Christmas. Other study breaks,

e.g. around Easter, vary depending on the

course or programme.

Academic system

Higher education in Sweden is divided

into ﬁrst, second and third cycle, which

corresponds to the European standard.

This includes bachelor’s, master’s and

doctoral programmes.

In Sweden you can take single-subject

courses or full study programmes. If you

choose to study a single subject course,

you are awarded credits on completion of

these courses.

Degrees are usually awarded after

completing a study programme. Study pro-

grammes are made up of courses, some of

which are compulsory (required) and some

of which are optional. Single-subject courses

taught in English at bachelor level cannot

be combined into a master’s degree. The

degrees awarded at Linköping University are:

• Bachelor’s degree, three years, 180 credits

• Master’s degree one/two years,

60/120 credits

Several professional diplomas are oered

as well.

Credits and grading

One week of full time studies equals 1.5

credits, which are identical to the European

Credit Transfer and Accumulation System

(ECTS). One semester of full-time studies

equals 30 credits and one academic year

equals 60 credits. LiU uses four grading

systems, depending on the course. For

ECTS conversion, see the table below.

Workload and instruction

Full-time studies usually require 40 hours

of study per week, whether in class or indi-

vidually. Depending on the faculty, several

courses can be studied in parallel or one at a

time. Subjects may also be integrated into

themes or blocks. The extent and method of

instruction can vary. Technical courses tend

to have a larger proportion of scheduled

hours, while courses within social sciences

and arts are more ﬂexible, allowing students

to devote some of their time to active indi-

vidual learning.

Courses can include lectures with hundreds

of students and smaller seminars where stu-

dents are expected to be active in discussions

and express their own views. Education is

also conducted through laboratory work,

excursions, study visits and independent

project work. Online resources such as

digital classrooms are used widely both for

on-campus and distance programmes.

Examination

All courses are subject to continuous assess-

ment, written and/or oral, individually or in

groups. Written anonymous exams are the

most common form of assessment. However

oral presentations, take-home exams, certain

assignments and active participation in

seminars or projects might also be used to

measure your performance in the course.

Academic culture

In the Swedish academic environment it is

customary to address lecturers by their ﬁrst

name. The student-teacher relationship is

quite informal and students are free to

approach and question their teachers.

Students are expected to be independent in

their work and take responsibility for the

quality of their learning.

Language of instruction

While the majority of teaching in most

courses at LiU is conducted in Swedish,

there are a growing number of single-

subject courses and master’s programmes

taught entirely in English that appeal to

both Swedish and international students.

Swedish language courses

Swedish language courses at dierent levels

are available to international students. The

application procedure might dier depending

on your faculty. Read more at www.liu.se

Registration

You need to register on the Student Portal

(study administrative service) for each

course you plan to take. The registration is

possible on the ﬁrst day of the semester at

the earliest and must be completed within

the ﬁrst two weeks from the start. If you

study for more than one semester, you need

to register for your courses at the start of

each semester, even if you are registered in

a programme.

In some programmes, your name will be

taken during the roll call and then forwarded

to the Student Service Desk for registration.

If not, you will need to register yourself. The

following oces can help you with your ﬁrst

registration:

• Campus Valla: Student Service Desk in

the Zenit Building

• University Hospital Campus: Student

Aairs Oce

6 7

• Campus Norrköping: Student Service

Desk, Kåkenhus building

• Campus Lidingö: contact your study

coordinator for more information

Afterwards you will be able to register

electronically via the Student Portal.

Master’s students arriving prior to the

start of the programme may register for an

orientation course to receive their LiU Card

and LiU ID.

The LiU ID is the username that gives

access to email, the Student Portal, LiU

computers and some systems at the depart-

ments. The LiU Card is a student card that

veriﬁes your aliation to the University,

gives you access to the facilities on the

campuses, works as campus bus card,

library card and even discount card.

Service Desk in the Zenit Building on

Campus Valla, in the main building on

Campus US or in Kåkenhus on Campus

Norrköping. Make sure to bring proof of

identity (passport, ID card).

Students with special needs

The University supports students with

special needs by providing help with taking

notes, audio books, student mentors, sign

language interpreters, extra supervision,

technical aid and more. The facilities on

campus are well adjusted for easy access.

Students with special needs who apply for

studies at LiU should contact the university’s

coordinator as early as possible, preferably

at the time of application. You can ﬁnd more

information on the student web pages.

Equal opportunities

LiU works constantly on ensuring equal

opportunities for all students, regardless of

gender, age, sexual orientation, ethnicity,

religion or philosophy of life, disability,

transgender identity or expression, or social

background. The University’s rules, norms

and routines should show respect for indi-

viduals and their varying circumstances.

Residence permits and insurances

Residence permits and visas

Citizens of the European Union (EU), have

the right to work, study or live in Sweden

without a residence permit. If you meet the

requirements for the right of residence, you

are allowed to stay in Sweden without having

to contact the Swedish Migration Agency

(Migrationsverket). To see these require-

ments, visit www.migrationsverket.se.

If you are staying in Sweden for over a year,

contact the Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket)

at skatteverket.se, to be registered in the

population database and receive a personal

identity number (personnummer). To be

able to register EU citizens must have valid

health insurance with full coverage for at

least a year.

Citizens of the Nordic countries may live

in Sweden without a residence permit but

some special agreements apply.

Swiss citizens must apply for a residence

permit if staying in Sweden longer than

three months. This must be done within the

ﬁrst three months of arrival in Sweden.

If you are not a citizen of the Nordic coun-

tries or the EU/EEA area and are going to

study for longer than three months, you must

apply for a residence permit at the Swedish

embassy/consulate in your home country.

To ensure that you obtain your permit in time,

submit your application as soon as you have

received the Notiﬁcation of Selection Results

and paid your tuition fee. We strongly recom-

mend that you use the electronic application

form, as this will shorten processing time and

improve the quality of your application.

Do not forget to indicate if you have been

admitted to a two-year master’s programme,

as this aects the duration of your residence

permit. If you get a residence permit for a

shorter time than one year, you will not be

able to register in the Swedish population

database and get a personal identity number,

which is necessary to get access to many

services in Sweden.

Students enrolled in distance programmes

cannot receive a Swedish residence permit.

Those who have face-to-face meetings

on campus as a part of the programme’s

curriculum should apply for a short-term

visa instead. For more information on resi-

dence permits, visas, etc., as well as forms

and addresses, visit www.migrationsverket.se

Apply online for your

residence permit:

• fewer spelling mistakes

• shorter processing times

• decisions made by study permit

specialists in Sweden

• correct permit periods

• no extra requirements, such as

an address in Sweden

Tuition fees and scholarships

At LiU tuition fees range from SEK 55,000

to 150,000 per academic year.

Citizens of EU/EEA countries and

Switzerland are exempted from paying tui-

tion fees at LiU. Citizens of other countries

which are not a part of a bilateral exchange

programme are required to pay tuition fees.

Tuition fee payments are to be made in

advance. The payment of the ﬁrst instalment

(for the ﬁrst semester) is due on 1 June.

Those who hold a permanent Swedish

residence permit or have a temporary

permit granted for reasons other than

studies may be exempted from tuition fees.

For detailed information, check the

“Fees and scholarships” section on

www.universityadmissions.se

Students who have been granted a

scholar ship from LiU or the Swedish Institute

are exempted from tuition fees and will

not receive an invoice for the ﬁrst instal-

ment, but have to remember to apply for

a residence permit as soon as possible.

LiU Scholarship holders:

Use the list of scholarships published on

www.liu.se/admittedmasters as proof that

you have received a scholarship. The Swedish

Migration Agency will contact LiU separately

to conﬁrm this information.

Work and study

Students from Nordic and EU/EEA

countries and students from other countries

with a valid residence permit for studies

have the right to work in Sweden.

Working and studying at the same time

can be quite challenging, as full-time studies

at Linköping University require 40 hours per

week. Also, be aware that opportunities for

part-time work in Sweden are limited and that

most jobs require a knowledge of Swedish.

Family and school

If you plan to bring your family to Sweden,

they will most likely need a visa or residence

permit, depending on their citizenship and

length of stay. You need to ensure that you

have sucient means to support your family

members, and that they have some form of

health insurance. For more information see

www.migrationsverket.se

If you have children, familiarise yourself

with the Swedish school system and look into

available schools and/or daycare centres in

Linköping or Norrköping. Some schools have

a long queue, so it is advisable to apply for a

place before you arrive in Sweden.

Note that you cannot stay in a student

corridor room if have accompanying family

members. You will need to look for an apart-

ment. Many apartments are rented out

unfurnished, so be sure to have a budget for

basic furniture.

Health insurance

Make sure you have proper medical insur-

ance before you leave your home country

and check carefully what it covers.

Citizens from an EU/EEA country and

Switzerland must bring a valid European

Health Insurance Card (EHIC) in order to

beneﬁt from the same medical services as

Swedish citizens for urgent medical care.

Contact your local health authority and

make sure you receive your EHIC before

coming to Sweden. The card needs to be

valid for a full year in order to apply for a

Swedish personal identity number. If you

are not eligible for an EHIC from your home

country, be sure to arrange private insur-

ance. Without health insurance, medical

services in Sweden can be expensive –

around SEK 1,700 for a doctor’s appoint-

ment. Citizens from Australia, Algeria and

Quebec beneﬁt from a reciprocal agreement

for public medical services between Sweden

and the respective country/region. Students

need only to show their passport and a certif-

icate from the social insurance oce in their

home country. The agreement applies only

for urgent medical care.

FAS+ insurance for fee-paying

Students

Linköping University has signed the Swedish

State’s Insurance for Fee-paying Students

(with property cover), called FAS+. This

insurance applies to students who are

required to pay tuition fees for education

in Sweden. It covers emergency medical/

dental care, home transport, accidents,

property, liability and legal expenses.

Consider arranging additional insurance

if you suer from chronic illnesses or plan to

start a family during your studies in Sweden.

Personal injury insurance

All students who are registered in the

Student Records System (Ladok) are covered

by a personal injury insurance from the

Legal, Financial and Administrative Services

Agency (Kammarkollegiet), paid for by

Linköping University. This insurance only

covers accidents that occur during study

hours spent at the university or on work

placements in Sweden and when travelling

directly between your place of work/study

and your accommodation in Sweden. It is

very important that you get complementary

insurance before leaving for Sweden.

Travel and home insurance

It is advisable to have travel insurance that

covers your travel to and from Sweden, plus

the time you spend in the country prior to

registration at the university and after your

courses have ﬁnished. It is also good to have

private insurance to protect your personal

belongings. You should get home insurance

to protect your personal belongings and

avoid costs related to property damages such

as that caused by ﬁre, ﬂooding or plumbing

failures. Check with your landlord if home

insurance is included in the rent or not.

Swedish personal identity number

A Swedish personal identity number

(personnummer), similar to a social security

number or civil registration number in other

countries, can facilitate your contact with

Swedish authorities, health care institutions,

banks etc. The number has 10 digits, starting

with your date of birth (YYMMDD-XXXX).

Non-EU students who hold a residence

permit and EU students who stay in Sweden

for at least a full year and have health insurance

with full coverage can apply for a personal

identity number at the Swedish Tax Agency.

Visit www.skatteverket.se to ﬁnd which

documents you are required to submit.

Note that it can take several weeks for you to

receive your number. Once you have it, go to

the Student Service Desk at LiU to replace

your temporary number (which contains a

letter instead of a digit).

Accommodation

If you search for accommodation on your

own, you should register with dierent

housing companies oering accommoda-

tion to students as soon as possible. Once

you have received your admission letter

(Notiﬁcation of Selection Results), you will

be able to apply for rooms and apartments.

You can also look for a ﬂat/room on the

private market. Fee-paying students are

guaranteed accommodation and will be

oered a furnished corridor room, if they

pay the deposit fee by 1 June.

Housing in Linköping

Linköping is a student city, and our stu-

dents live in various residential areas all

over town. Many students live in student

housing areas situated within cycling/

walking distance from Campus Valla.

Student dormitories normally consist of

eight corridor rooms with private bath-

rooms, a shared living room and a shared

kitchen. Please note that not all new

students ﬁnd accommodation at student

housing companies. Most of them opt for a

regular apartment or a room in a shared

apartment with other students. Be careful

and do not transfer money until you have

seen the apartment and signed the contract.

Studentbostäder

(www.studentbostader.se, tel. +46 13 20 86 60)

This is one of the main housing companies

for students, oering corridor rooms or ﬂats

to share in various areas of Linköping close

to the university. We strongly recommend

that you register with Studentbostäder as

soon as possible so that you can start collecting

queue points (1 point per day). You can apply

for a speciﬁc accommodation after you have

received your admission letter (Notiﬁcation

of Selection Results). In order to retain your

accumulated queue points you must log in to

your account at least once every six months.

You can register online and the service is free

of charge and without any obligations.

The rent for a furnished room with a

private bathroom and a shared kitchen/living

room starts from SEK 3,100 per month.

Rooms can only be rented for whole calendar

months. The rental contract for student

dormitories can be terminated by giving a full

month’s notice. It is worth keeping your room

over the summer as June and July are free

of charge. If you end your contract with

Student bostäder and then want to re-apply,

you will have to go through the whole appli-

cation process again; but then, you will not

have the priority that new students have.

Electricity, heating and internet are included

in the rent. Students supply their own bed-

ding. Laundry facilities are available. The

kitchen has a refrigerator, a freezer and an

electric stove. Depending on the type of

room you rent, you might have to bring

your own kitchenware.

Byggvesta

(www.byggvesta.se, tel. +46 13 25 45 60)

The housing company owns Colonia –

a newly built complex on Campus Valla.

Flat sizes are between 25 and 43 square

metres and the rent approx. SEK 4,600 to

6,400 per month. Colonia has student-led

leadership and activity teams to help inter-

national students interact with Swedes and

the Swedish culture.

12 13

Housing in Norrköping

In Norrköping students beneﬁt from many

housing options close to the campus and

the city centre. There are furnished corridor

rooms as well as flats of different sizes,

furnished or unfurnished. Most of the

rooms and ﬂats are set up for internet

and TV connection.

Studentbo

(www.studentbo.se, tel. +46 11 21 16 70

This is the main housing company for

students, oering rooms/ﬂats of dierent

kinds. Check their website for more

information.

Other options

You can rent a room or a ﬂat on the private

market. It is not uncommon for students to

share a large ﬂat with several rooms. Here is

a list of landlords in the Linköping area

(in Swedish): www.linkoping.se/sv/Bygga-bo/

Hitta-bostad/Hyresvardar-i-Linkoping/

LiU’s electronic notice board is a good

source of ads for student accommodation:

www.student.liu.se/anslagstavlan?l=en

Blocket is a website that lists, among

other things, housing ads for all of Sweden

(in Swedish): www.blocket.se

Temporary accommodation

As student rooms are only available for full

calendar months, you might want to check

in at a youth hostel ﬁrst. Make sure that you

reach an agreement with the hostel regarding

when and how to pick up your key if you

arrive late in the evening. Remember to

bring your own bed sheets or you will

have to pay extra. It might be dicult to

get a room right before the semester starts

so make sure you book well in advance!

Linköping Tourist Oce

(www.visitlinkoping.se) can assist you in

ﬁnding a suitable hostel or hotel.

Still no luck?

We strongly recommend that you do your

best to arrange accommodation before

coming to Sweden. If you still haven’t

found anything at the time of your arrival,

you can contact KOMBO on Campus Valla.

They will supply you with information

on how to look for accommodation on the

private market and help you with

emergency lodging.

You will receive one point per day.

Wear nice socks!

When invited to a Swedish home

it is customary to take off your

shoes at the entrance. Some guests

even bring their own indoor shoes.

Weather or not

Some say that Swedes always talk

about the weather ... or about their

summer holidays (and the weather

during it). True or false – it is a

good conversation starter!

Applying for accommodation through the

university will not guarantee an accom-

modation. Students must therefore register

with www.studentbostader.se and save

queue points, one per day, as soon as they

have been nominated for exchange, or look

for accommodation with other landlords.

Arrival

When receiving your admission letter you

will also get important information from

the exchange student coordinators, such as

opening hours for the International Oce,

date for the Orientation Day etc. Remember

to inform the coordinators in advance

about the time of your arrival. If you have

accommodation in Linköping arranged by

the university you should arrive during

oce hours to pick up your key. If you

arrive outside oce hours you might have

to arrange accommodation at a hotel or

youth hostel for the ﬁrst night. It is also

possible to ask a friend to pick up the keys

at the International Oce.

Swedish language courses

As an exchange student you might want to

know more about the Swedish language,

culture and society. LiU oers language

courses at dierent levels and pace of study.

All exchange students are welcome to apply,

but there are limited number of places on

each course.

Master’s Degree Students

Every year Linköping University

welcomes master’s degree students

from more than 50 countries.

Accommodation

Generally, as a master’s degree student you

will need to arrange your own accommoda-

tion. However, the university has reserved a

limited number of furnished corridor rooms

for fee-paying international master’s degree

students at a student-housing agency.

Fee-paying students will receive an oer of a

student corridor room at the beginning of

May. We strongly encourage you to accept this

oer, as it is always possible to change accom-

modation later if you ﬁnd another place to

stay. Please note that students with families

are not allowed to stay in a student corridor

room and will need to look for an apartment.

Master’s degree students who hold a

scholarship from Linnaeus Palme, the

Swedish Institute or a LiU International

Scholarship can also receive help ﬁnding

accommodation. You will be oered a

furnished corridor room and have to accept

and pay the deposit fee by 1 June.

Arrival

Make sure to arrive in time for your faculty’s

Information Day. Information Days are held

at the beginning of the autumn semester, in

mid to late August. They are designed to wel-

come you and provide you with basic practical

information for your time as a student.

The dates will be published on

www.liu.se/admittedmasters

It is mandatory to attend your master’s pro-

gramme’s roll call; if you don’t you will lose

your place on your programme. If for some

reason you cannot attend an Information

Day, turn to the International Oce for help

with practical matters and to the interna-

tional coordinator at your faculty for

study-related questions.

Welcome activities are organised during

the ﬁrst weeks of the autumn semester for

everyone who would like to participate.

Show your original transcripts

Admission is granted on the condition that

you present the original documents that you

used to support your application. If your

documents are in a language other than

Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, English,

French or German, you must also provide an

ocial translation. This translation should

be in one of the following languages: Swedish,

English, French or German. Your documents

– diploma and transcripts – should be pre-

sented to the Admissions Oce at Linköping

University by 1 November.

Tuition fees and change of status

Students who pay tuition fees beneﬁt from

the following advantages:

• One Swedish language course

for beginners (15 credits) without

extra charge

• The Swedish state’s insurance FAS+,

including accident and property cover

(on-campus programmes)

• A housing oer

20 21

Tuition fees are to be paid in advance,

normally one semester at a time. The fees

cover a workload of 30 credits per semester;

extra courses need to be paid for separately.

If you are a fee-paying student but claim

to be eligible for a change of status to a non-

fee payer, you need to submit a formal letter

and supporting documents to the Admissions

Oce. For detailed information see

www.liu.se/tuitionfees

Study counsellors

Turn to a study counsellor if you need help

with change of courses or study breaks.

Study counsellors are also available for

individual support on study related issues.

You always speak to your study counsellor

in conﬁdence. You can contact a study

counsellor at centralstudievagledning@liu.se

or visit the oces in Zenit or Origo (Campus

Valla), Student Aairs Oce (University

Hospital Campus) and Kåkenhus (Campus

Norrköping). For more information go to

www.student.liu.se/vagledning

Farewell cermony

All graduating master’s degree students are

invited to a festive Farewell Ceremony in

early June. At the event students are person-

ally congratulated and handed a letter by the

Vice-Chancellor of Linköping University.

This celebration is LiU’s way of thanking all

Atlantis and master’s degree students for

the time they spent at the university.

Diploma

Once you have ﬁnished your studies, you

can apply for a diploma/degree certiﬁcate

at the Examination and Academic Degree

Service. The easiest way to apply is through

the Student Portal, but you can also use an

application form. The diploma is issued

together with a supplement in English,

providing detailed information about your

studies. The certiﬁcate will be sent by post

to the address you provide, but it may take

up to a couple of months to issue. In the

meantime you can download a transcript of

records from the Student Portal or you can

ask the Student Service Desk to give you a

transcript of records.

As a graduate, we would like you to join LiU

Alumni – a global network that can help you

grow both professionally and personally.

The campus cities

and surroundings

Linköping and Norrköping are

situated 200 and 160 km south-

west of Stockholm, in the county

of Östergötland. The two towns are

in the process of developing into

one integrated urban region –

Sweden’s fourth metropolitan

area or the Twin Cities region.

Östergötland

Östergötland is the fourth largest county in

Sweden and has about 435,000 inhabitants.

The region oers not only famous tourist

attractions, such as Kolmården Zoo – the

largest zoo and safari park in the Nordic

region – but is also one of Sweden’s most

interesting counties from a historical point

of view. There are numerous ancient fortresses,

rune stones and prehistoric rock carvings in

the area. Churches, castles and manors from

the Middle Ages and later periods have also

been well preserved. Read more about the

county on www.visitostergotland.se

Linköping

Linköping is one of Sweden’s oldest towns

with a long cultural tradition. Over the past

50 years, Linköping has grown to become

Sweden’s ﬁfth largest municipality, with

152,000 inhabitants. It is home to indus-

tries specialising in many dierent sectors,

ranging from aircraft manufacturing to

emerging technologies. Several international

companies such as Saab, Siemens, Toyota

and others have oces in Linköping.

Despite its rapid growth, Linköping still

holds the charm of a small town. The city

centre is very easy to reach and it oers

plenty of entertainment opportunities:

theatre, concerts, museums or “spex” –

the traditional student farces. Cafés and

restaurants located downtown are ready

to meet all tastes and demands. Read more

about what Linköping has to oer on

www.visitlinkoping.se

Norrköping

Norrköping, home to about 133,000 people,

has a tradition as an industrial centre dating

back to the 17th century. The old industrial

area on the waterfront of Motala River in

the heart of Norrköping was once famous

for its cotton and paper mills. Today it has

turned into a modern area that hosts,

among others, LiU’s Campus Norrköping

and the student union building, Trappan,

where students usually eat and socialise.

The industrial buildings have been meti-

culously restored and are well worth a visit.

When in Norrköping don’t miss a ride with

the tram, which has been in use since 1904.

And do look in at Visualization Centre C

inside one of the converted old factory

buildings. Read more about Norrköping’s

attractions on www.upplev.norrkoping.se

Nature’s for

everyone

The Swedish Right of Public

Access states that it is legal

to be on someone else’s land

(though not in their garden),

to swim or boat on their waters,

and to pick wild ﬂowers,

mushrooms, berries, fallen

cones and nuts. However you

must show respect for people

and nature.

26 27

Life in Sweden – A to Z

ATM machine Bankomat

ATM machines are available in many

places throughout the cities and on the

university campuses.

Bank Bank

Having a bank account makes life as a

student much easier. Most Swedish banks

require a personal identity number (person-

nummer) for opening a bank account.

You can acquire a personal identity number

if you can prove that you will stay in Sweden

for at least 12 months and have health

insurance with full coverage; otherwise you

should check with your home bank before

leaving for Sweden to see if they have a

corresponding Swedish bank partner.

Transferring funds from your home bank

can take up to a week.

If you open a Swedish bank account,

make sure you cancel it before you

leave Sweden.

Bicycle Cykel

Bikes are popular means of transport

among students and there are good bike

paths both in Linköping and Norrköping.

Second-hand bikes are available for sale in

several places. Keep in mind that a bicycle

needs to be equipped with a bell, front and

rear lights as well as front, rear and wheel

reﬂectors, according to the law. If biking in

the dark without these, you can be ﬁned

SEK 500–1,000.

Budget Budget

Below is an average monthly budget in

Swedish kronor (SEK) to give you an idea

of the cost of living. The budget does not

include expenses for travel within or outside

of Sweden, medical care, course literature or

expenses for household furnishings.

Bus, tram Buss, spårvagn

Buses – and trams in Norrköping – run

from early morning until late evening, later

on Fridays and Saturdays. You can buy

single tickets at dierent selling points

(sales agents, local convenience stores,

super markets etc.) or at a vending machine

– Quickomat. Please note that you cannot

buy your ticket on the bus from the driver.

If you travel frequently you can buy a top-up

travel card, which oers a small discount for

each trip, or a monthly bus pass for the urban

region or for the whole county.

SEK per month:

Food 2,000

Student accommodation 3,750

Local travel 560

Insurance, medical care, hygiene 300

Telephone/internet 300

Clothing, hobby/leisure, other 1,100

Total 8,010

ÖSTGÖTATRAFIKEN is the public transport

company operating within the county of

Östergötland. More information about local

travel, where to buy tickets and top-up cards

can be found on their website

www.ostgotatraﬁken.se

LINKÖPING UNIVERSITY has a bus service between

the three main campuses that is free of

charge for students with a valid LiU Card.

Timetables and more information about

the campus bus can be found at

www.liu.se/campusbussen

Clothes Kläder

As winters in Sweden can get quite cold,

it is important to be prepared with proper

clothes, as well as solid, waterproof foot-

wear. Mittens/gloves and a warm hat are

also necessary. Many student parties require

a student overall as a dress code; an interna-

tional student’s overall can be purchased

from ESN Linköping. For some of the stu-

dent parties the dress code is quite formal;

suits/ties and long dresses are often worn.

These kinds of garments can be hired.

Currency Valuta

The currency in Sweden is Swedish krona

(SEK), plural kronor. Check the updated

exchange rate to your local currency in order

to get a clear picture of prices in Sweden. It

is a good idea to have some kronor with you

upon arrival, as you will not be able to pay in

US dollars, euro or other currencies.

Dentist Tandläkare

Should you need to go to the dentist, you

can turn to your nearest public dental clinic,

Folktandvården. There are also several

private dental clinics that you can ﬁnd in the

telephone directory under Tandläkare. Keep

in mind that dental treatment in Sweden

can be quite expensive and is not subject to

the same bonuses as the rest of the health

care system.

Doctor Doktor, läkare

See Medical Care.

As many Swedes as ...

Sweden has about 9.5 million inhabitants,

similar to the Dominican Republic or

metropolitan Chicago.

Don’t be cool

Not used to dressing for cold weather?

Covering your hands, neck and head helps.

Thick-soled shoes are also a good idea.

Golf on ice

Bandy – a popular Swedish team sport – is

a combination of football and ice hockey.

28 29

Driving licence Körkort

Driving licences issued in EU/EEA coun-

tries are valid in Sweden. Other foreign

driving licences are valid in Sweden for one

year after civic registration. Driving licences

issued in languages other than English,

French, German and the Nordic languages

require a translation into one of these lan-

guages to be attached to the licence. If the

domestic driving licence does not bear a

photo, photo identiﬁcation is required in

addition to the driving licence. It is prohibited

in Sweden to drive under the inﬂuence of

alcohol: at over 0.2 ‰ you will face ﬁnes

and a revoked driving licence. The use of

seat belts is required in both the front and

the rear seats, and it is the driver’s respon-

sibility to make sure that passengers use

them. Cars should be driven with dipped

headlights even in the daytime. Winter tyres

must be used from December through

March when road conditions are wintry.

Electricity Elektricitet

The voltage in Sweden is 220 volts at 50 Hz.

As e.g. British and American outlets may

dier from Europlug outlets used in

Sweden, you may need a transformer and

/or an adapter for your electrical appliances.

Emergency Nödfall

In case of emergency dial 112 from any

phone and ask for the police, an ambulance

or the ﬁre brigade.

Libraries Bibliotek

In addition to LiU’s libraries, there are

public libraries where you can borrow books

and other media. You can register at a public

library with a valid ID card.

Medical care Hälso- och sjukvård

To get a doctor’s appointment call the health

centre/clinic, Vårdcentral, in the district

where you live. If you do not know where the

closest primary health care centre is, call 1177

for information. For emergencies call 112 or

go to the Emergency Room, Akuten, at the

University Hospital in Linköping or Vrinnevi

Hospital in Norrköping. If you need medical

advice, call 1177 at any time and talk to a nurse.

They can also help you to make an appoint-

ment at a clinic with on-call medical sta

when your local Health Centre is closed.

Medical treatment in Sweden can be very

expensive if you do not have insurance.

Make sure you are properly insured.

Bring your European Health Insurance

Card, if you have one, or a proof of other

kind of medical insurance.

Mobile phones Mobiltelefoner

Normally you should be able to use your

own mobile phone from your home country,

if it’s not locked to a certain network. Com-

mon operators in Sweden are Telia, Tele2,

Comviq, 3 and Telenor. When possible, the

International Oce will arrange a SIM card

to oer you free of charge upon arrival.

Narcotics Knark

All types of narcotics, including cannabis,

are strictly forbidden in Sweden. Strict

penalties apply for selling and using drugs.

Newspapers Tidningar

You can read Swedish news in English in the

online newspaper The Local, www.thelocal.se.

Foreign newspapers and magazines can

be bought at several press shops or read at

the library.

Personal identity number/ Civic

registration number Personnummer

If you will stay in Sweden for at least a full

year and have health insurance with full

coverage you can apply for a Swedish

personal identity number. This number

can facilitate your contact with Swedish

authorities, health care institutions, banks

etc. It is also required if using services, such

as discount cards at supermarkets or pay-

ing for mobile phone installments. The

number has 10 digits, starting with your

date of birth (YYMMDD-XXXX), and is

not the same as the number that you

receive at the university.

Pharmacy Apoteket

At every pharmacy in Sweden you can pick up

your doctor’s prescription or buy other health

care products. Pharmacies are spread all over

town both in Linköping and Norr köping and

are easy to recognise. Check the closest

pharmacy for speciﬁc opening hours.

Police Polis

Contact the police if you want to report a

crime, either as a victim or as a witness.

Make sure you notify the police of any stolen

property. You can reach the police at 112 in

case of emergency, otherwise at 114 14. For

more information about the Swedish Police

go to www.polisen.se/en

The thought counts

If you are invited to a Swede’s home then it is

suggested that you take some kind of gift

such as a bouquet of ﬂowers or a box of

chocolates. If you are personally given a gift,

then it is customary to open it upon receipt.

To hug or not to hug?

Hugging in Sweden is a common way of

greeting close friends. However, personal

space is important and as such it is recom-

mended that you maintain awareness of

someone’s personal space and try not to

invade it.

30 31

Post ofﬁce Posten

Post in Sweden is delivered Monday to Friday.

The Swedish postal service, Posten, has

outlets in supermarkets, service shops and

petrol stations for domestic and interna-

tional mail. There you can buy stamps,

pre-paid envelopes and cardboard boxes,

send letters and collect or send packages.

Almost every building has special containers

where you can separate paper, newspapers,

plastics, metal and glass into different

containers. It will be collected and recycled,

and waste which cannot be recycled is

burned to produce central heating for

households. When you buy drinks in cans

and plastic bottles, usually a deposit for the

container (one or two kronor) is included in

the price. You will ﬁnd a recycling machine at

almost every supermarket. When you return

your container you receive a receipt for which

you can buy food or receive a cash refund.

Religion Religion

The predominant religion in Sweden is a

Lutheran denomination but many other

churches and religions are represented

across Sweden. You are welcome to contact

the student ministers (Kårallen building

in Linköping and Trappan building in

Norr köping) if you have any queries regarding

religious matters or if you want to get in con-

tact with someone of your own religion. For

more information see www.stp.studorg.liu.se

Smoking Rökning

Smoking is forbidden in all public places in

Sweden, i.e. at the university, in restaurants,

coee shops, shopping centres etc. Smoking

outside the University Hospital in Linköping

is only allowed in designated areas.

Fancy dining?

Sweden, like most of Europe, holds their

silverware with the fork upside-down in

the left hand and the knife in the right.

The green bag

The green bag helps turn your food waste

into biogas, which is used to fuel buses

and cars in the county of Östergötland.

32 33

Sport Sport/Idrott

Students in Linköping can join LSIF, the

Students’ Sport and Athletics Club at Campus

Valla, www.campushallen.se. Students in

Norrköping can join Na, the Academic

sports club at Campus Norrköping,

www.na.nu. Both cities also have numerous

gyms and sports centres, which usually oer

student discounts. There are also indoor

swimming pools in central Linköping

and Norrköping.

Student discount Studentrabatt

If you have an International Student Identity

Card (ISIC) when you arrive in Sweden, you

can get a discount if travelling with Sweden’s

National Rail (SJ), or Swebus, one of the

biggest bus companies in Sweden. While in

Sweden you can beneﬁt from numerous

student discounts certiﬁed by the Mecenat

logotype on your LiU Card.

Taxi Taxi

Travelling by taxi can be expensive but some

companies oer student discounts. Ask the

taxi driver before you start your journey.

Water Vatten

Tap water in Sweden is safe to drink and of

very good quality. You can always ask for a free

glass of water in any restaurant or pub/club.

TV and radio TV och radio

Cable TV with foreign channels is available

in many residential areas. In the common

living room and kitchen the TV set is available

without any extra charge. However, if you

get a TV in your own room, you will need to

pay a fee of approximately SEK 2,000 per

year. Foreign programmes on Swedish

television are shown in the original

language with Swedish subtitles. Swedish

radio transmits daily in several languages

on the national radio channel P2. For more

information check www.sverigesradio.se

Time Tid

Local time in Sweden is GMT +1. Sweden

uses daylight saving time (DST), namely

clocks go forward one hour on the last

Sunday in March and back on the last

Sunday in October.

Tips Dricks

Tipping is not a must in Sweden. A service

charge is included in restaurant and taxi

bills, but if you are happy with the service it

is quite common to leave a 10 % tip.

Weather Väder

Sweden has four distinct seasons and tempera-

tures vary greatly between north and south. In

Östergötland, the average temperature in July

is approximately +17°C (63°F) and in February

temperatures can reach -20°C (-4°F).

Wine, beer, Spirits Vin, öl, sprit

Alcohol and liquor are only sold in the state-

owned Swedish Alcohol Retailing Monopoly,

Systembolaget. Light beer/cider can be

bought in regular supermarkets. The mini-

mum age for buying alcohol at Systembolaget

is 20 years old. A valid photo ID may be

asked for. In bars and restaurants the legal

drinking age is 18.

Time is of the essence

Punctuality is very important in Sweden

and if the academic quarter applies you

will be clearly informed about that. It can

be considered disrespectful if you are late.

Always apologise in such cases, even to a

large group.

All 52 of them

Swedes often plan and count their time in

weeks, which they refer to by their number.
