Academic system
The academic year is divided into two semesters of approximately 20 weeks each. For exchange students, the autumn semester starts in August and runs to around the middle of January. Spring semester starts in the middle of January and runs to the beginning of June.
A full workload equals 30 ECTS credits per semester. Most courses are offered at least once a year, and some every semester. Not all courses have the same duration. Some courses last the entire semester, while others are between 3 to 10 weeks long.
Courses and programmes taught in English
There are several courses taught in English and other foreign languages, and there are eleven international Master’s programmes, if you have already reached that level in your studies. Some programmes have selected courses that may be studied as freestanding courses.
Below you can find courses offered in English and other languages during the academic year 2022/2023. Please note:
- Courses preceded by ∆ do not require any special prerequisites other than one year of academic studies which all exchange students have by definition. The medium of instruction is English unless stated otherwise.
- Courses with * next to them are online courses, and thus teaching will not be on campus. We encourage incoming exchange students to primarily take courses that are in person.
- Courses with (Advanced level) are Master level courses.

SAS courses
The SAS courses (Special Area Studies courses) give an overview of an interesting and relevant subject area connected to various Scandinavian, European and global issues. The courses are targeted at exchange students regardless of discipline, and are also accessible to all (Swedish and international) regular students.
Study Swedish
If you want to develop your Swedish language skills while in Lund, you may apply for a SUSA course (3 ECTS), and a SVEE course (7.5 ECTS).
Students who have A2 on the CEFR- scale can apply for SVEE12 or SVEE13. Those who passed level B1 or higher are welcome to apply for SVEE14 or SFSA15. To secure that the students are divided into appropriate groups, their skills are tested through a Swedish level test a few days before the introduction meeting for the SVEE courses.
Courses and programmes taught in Swedish
The Faculties of Humanities and Theology offer a large number of subjects to choose from.
Write a paper or thesis
While in Lund, would you like to write a paper or thesis, a project that was initiated at your home university? You are welcome to do so, but unfortunately we are not able to provide you with a supervisor at Lund University. Your home supervisor will be the one to help you throughout your project.
