Section 2 - Moving to Sweden

A warm welcome to Sweden and SLU! We understand that it might feel overwhelming at the start of your time as a doctoral student – even more so if you have moved to Sweden from a different country.

The SLU Division of Human Resources has published information about living in Sweden and working at SLU. You can find useful information for before and after your move to Sweden here: https://internt.slu.se/en/my-employment/living-and-working-in-sweden/ Links to an external site. 

International channels of information:

- International Citizien Hub Lund (Länkar till en externa sida.) (For Southern Sweden)

- Uppsala International Hub (Länkar till en externa sida.) (Uppsala region)

If you would like to read more about Sweden and the Swedes, the Swedish Institute has an official website with a lot of interesting (and surprising?) information: https://sweden.se Links to an external site.
