Arrival and registration

I'm really happy with the pick-up service
Vår skola

Acommendation

I think that common spaces should be periodically cleaned by accomodation staff because stuents are not able to organize the cleaning and the result is that common areas are dirty and untidy
Vårt kära hus!

Leisure time and social activities

The social activities organized by Global students are funny and give you the possibility to meet other students

Pre-departure

I chose to go on exchange to have the possibility to work in an international lab and to meet people from different cultures

Courses during the exchange period

2EE066 : MAS-Biomedical project for exchange students
I didn't attend classes because I stayed in a lab to work on my master thesis

Summary

I think this experience is really important for my formation, not only from the academic point of view but also for my personal growth.I would suggest to choose KI for your exchange

Language and Culture

I would have done the Swidish course if there was the possibility to have classes once a week but I arrived in Stockholm when it was to late to apply to that one. There should be more starting dates for the classes

Studies in general

I think Karolinska Institutet offers an advanced level education, labs are new and well equipped. The environment is international, you can meet people from all over the world
