Linnaues University

Overall
The campus is beautifully located at the harbour and offers great opportunities to spend time during classes. The programs courses are happening one at a time, enabling the students to fully focus on the required topic. The amount of lectures gives the students is adequately scheduled, so that the students have a good balance of free time apart from studying. This additionally gives students the possibility to study by themselves or with partners in order to have a sustainable learning outcome, rather than an overwhelming amount of information conducted through lectures.
Generally, it can be said that both the structure of the university but also of the overall courses is targeted towards a sustainable learning that is supposed to lead to a positive long-term outcome for the students. Great focus is put on a good "work-life-balance" so that studying is not associated with negative attributes like stress, but rather as a fun way to educate yourself and broaden your horizon.

Careers
The integration of internship depends on your course, but international/English course often have the opportunity of internships or studies abroad. As a voluntary offer, students can find an internship that suits their classes and is therefore permitted by the university. The university by itself neither offers own internships nor provides a lot of guidance for finding internships, so that it in the students own responsibility to find a fitting placement.

Kalmar University tries hard to make exchange students feel comfortable right from the beginning. Every student has his own mentor who e.g. picks you up from the station. Furthermore the ESN-board organized orientation days and also some parties and traveling. It was fun, and I really liked the way it was handled.

It is very important to have enough money to live in Sweden during your studies, it is really difficult to find a student job. Learn a little bit about Swedish before coming, it will be easier for you to understand all the information (advertising, publicity, events, etc.)
