Sweden. Where freedom, facts and equality matter. 🇸🇪
Education in Sweden isn’t just about grades. It’s about having the freedom to grow, ask big questions, and learn in a place that values honesty, openness, and sustainability. ✌️
Do you want to challenge your professor? Please do.
Academic freedom is non-negotiable. We expect critical thinking, honest debate, and ideas that push boundaries – not just memorisation.
No banned books. No banned words. No political interference. No obedience grades.
Just you, your voice, and the freedom to use it.
You’re safe here.
No matter where you’re from, your gender or your sexual orientation, Sweden has a place for you. A new home should feel like just that, a home. No fear, no exceptions.
Sweden ranks as one of the most gender-equal and LGBTQI+-inclusive countries in the world.
You’ll study in a place where your identity isn’t questioned. It’s respected.
✔️ #1 on the EU Gender Equality Index
✔️ Strong LGBTQI+ protections
✔️ Safe, welcoming campuses
In Sweden, sustainability isn’t something we aim for, it’s something we live. From climate-smart cities to fossil-free transport, it shapes how we build, move, and thrive.
And the best part? It’s grounded in nature, literally:
5,000 nature reserves. 100,000 lakes. Forests, mountains, coastlines, all yours to roam, thanks to Allemansrätten, our right to public access.
“Studying in Sweden made me understand that there’s no paradise on earth. Sweden isn’t perfect, but here you can express your opinions freely and fight for your own rights”
“You can keep taking re-takes and no-one thinks you’re stupid” – Samhita, Dalarna University

What can you study?
We offer loads of programmes here. Thousands. At all levels too – bachelor’s, master’s, PhD. And you can pretty much study any subject in English.
What makes studying in Sweden unique?
Yep, you read that right. Sweden ranks #1 in the EU when it comes to gender equality in research and innovation.
👩🔬 More women in science.
👩🏫 More women in academia.
📊 More equal access to research funding.
We don’t just talk about equality, we measure it. And according to the EU Gender Equality Index, Sweden leads the way.
You’re not here to memorise answers, you’re here to ask better questions.
Professors expect you to think independently, speak up, and sometimes even disagree (respectfully, of course).
You won’t be spoon-fed your degree. You’ll take charge of your own learning, explore new ideas, and focus on the quality of what you create.
And if you fail along the way? That’s not a problem. It’s how learning happens.
Yes, it can be frustrating. People will disagree. Someone might slack off.
But it’ll make you sharper. More collaborative. Better at solving problems.
Group work is a challenge — and a preparation.
Up for it? You’ll fit right in.
Think Sweden is expensive? Think again. 💸
Sure, we’ve got high-tech cities and design that ends up in museums, but when it comes to education, Sweden might actually save you money.
Compared to many countries (yes, even the US), the overall cost of a master’s here is often lower.
Less student debt. More forest walks.
