Internationalisation

Uppsala University is the oldest university in Sweden, founded in 1477. The University is characterised by diversity and breadth, with international frontline research at nine faculties and educational offerings at Bachelor’s and Master’s levels.

In the city of Uppsala, student life revolves around the 13 student nations. The nations are student clubs that date back hundreds of years. Only students can become a member of the nations, which are responsible for arranging activities and events specifically for students. Most nations have a café, pub and restaurant, and popular nation activities include club nights, formal dinners, balls and musical events. As a member, you can also join a wide array of personal interest groups and sporting clubs.
