4.08 / 5 based on 648 reviews.
Description:
Lund University, with its 7 faculties and a number of research centres and specialized institutes, is the largest unit for research and higher education in Sweden. Lund University was founded in 1666, partly in order to tie more closely to Sweden the provinces which had been ceded by Denmark in 1658. Since then, the University has developed into a modern, international centre for research and higher education.

ACADEMIC
by louise, University of Newcastle, Newcastle, United Kingdom
Business Studies, Erasmus
My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
The courses were of a good standard and enabled me to understand a little more abour Swedish culture in organisations. The lecturers frequently made refernce to Swedish industry examples and gave insight into the 'Swedish' philosophy of conducting business.
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
There was a strong emphasis on group work, which I enjoyed however, the assignments often fell around the same time and therefore was made more difficult. Perhaps staggering coursework dates if possinle would be better. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
ACADEMIC
by kkaluza, Norwegian School of Management BI, Oslo, Norway
Business Studies, University Agreement
My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
There are not many lectures a week, which is good if you are an exchange student because it gives you opportunities to travel, think of this when you choose courses
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
Make different entry requirements to the different courses. Like have to have had an introduction to marketing course before taking cybermarketing, not have to have studied business administration for a year. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
ACADEMIC
by Francesc, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain
Engineering, Computer, Erasmus
My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
The are a lot of courses in English in the Economics School (Ekonomicentrum) in subjects related to Computer Sciences or Informatics. Perfect for Erasmus students.
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
It could be difficult to interact with the Swedish students, also because there are a lot of exchange students in Lund. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
ACADEMIC
by Michael, Universität Zürich, Zurich, Switzerland
Informatics, Erasmus
My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
Take at least one of the offered scandinavian area studies courses independently of what your main study subject may be. I think these courses give a very good insight in swedish life, culture and history.

ACADEMIC
by Jeroen, Erasmus Universiteit Rotterdam, Rotterdam, Netherlands
Sociology, Erasmus
My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
This year a lot of courses were cancelled due to cut-backs, but normally there should be more courses available, which regard to my area of study
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
Like I said before, the choice of courses could be bigger! This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
ACADEMIC
by Joanna, Uniwersytet Lódzki, Lodz, Poland
Psychology and Behavioural Sciences, Erasmus
My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
In my department there are very few english couses so anyway you choose most of them..
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
We should be obliged to have more academical knowledge, not only making projects basing on what we learned at home This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
ACADEMIC
by Andrea, Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland
Telecommunications, Erasmus
My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
Take a swedish language course. It happens often to take classes which lectures are given only in swedish. You can always read english books, but following lectures would of course imply less work.

ACADEMIC
by David, Universiteit Utrecht, Utrecht, Netherlands
International Relations, Erasmus
My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
Well, it deserves recommedation to keep nagging the heads of departments when they at first feel that you do not meet the requirements for the courses; in the end they are very likely to give in, which will give you a great opportunity to do some really interesting AND challenging courses (although in general you will not have too much work on your hands... enough time to enjoy the exchange experience!)
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
Percentages for grades; facilitates the calculation of any other type of grade than the good/very good Swedish system. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

ACADEMIC
by Katja_Munich, Technische Universität München, Munich, Germany
Food Science and Technology, Erasmus
My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
the courses are quite small only around 30 students. The courses are organised by two or more professors. They are always very helpful, so you can ask them any time …and there are all english speaking so swedish ist not really necessary to learn!! It is quite different from German universities, every is organised you will know exactly which book you have to study, a lot of project work, essays and presentations…different but perhaps also a little bit better than the German system!
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:

Fantastic.
Pretty good.
Could've been a bit better.
Disappointing.
