Stockholm University (SU) is one of the largest universities in Sweden and the regional centre for higher education and research in Science, Humanities, Social Sciences, and Law. The campus, situated in the midst of the world’s first National City Park, is characterised by natural beauty, unique architecture and contemporary art. You will find the city centre close by – the university is located only ten minutes from the urban buzz of the capital of Sweden.
Modern teaching and international front-line research characterize Stockholm University’s Faculty of Science, the largest science faculty in Sweden. Discoveries by our research groups have attracted worldwide attention. Research covers a wide range of fields, from elementary particles in the atomic nucleus to the outer limits of the universe; from the amazing microcosm of the cell to the complex ecosystems in the oceans. The integration of teaching and research is a hallmark of the Faculty.
