Study in Uppsala
Our county is home to not one, but two world-famous universities: Uppsala University and the Swedish University of Agricultural Science. Their enviable connections with academic institutions around the globe mean the student and teaching community is richly international. And that feeling extends across all of the county, thanks to the many international students who choose to live in Uppsala.
Uppsala University
Founded in 1477, Uppsala University is the oldest in Scandinavia. Today, it’s one of the world’s 100 top-ranking universities. The 30,000 students and a world-class teaching and research faculty are divided into three disciplinary domains: humanities and social sciences, medicine and pharmacy, and science and technology.
Swedish University of Agricultural Science
The world-renowned Swedish University of Agricultural Science (SLU) has a single goal: to create the best conditions for a sustainable, thriving and better world. And through research, education and environmental assessment within sustainable life sciences, SLU brings together the different people, different perspectives and professionalisms needed to achieve just that.
