Study abroad

The Stockholm University Department of Human Geography is active in student and teacher mobility, organizes field courses abroad, and encourages students to do field studies in other parts of the world.

The Department participates in the European Union Erasmus+ programme. Within this programme the Department have student exchange, and in some cases also teacher exchange, with departments at over 20 universities. There are also a limited number of agreements outside Eramus+, currently with universitiers in Switzerland and in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

In addition to these, there are the university-wide CIVIS Erasmus+ agreements with universities (within the CIVIS alliance of 11 European universities), the Nordlys Erasmus+ network with universities in the Nordic countries and contracts with a number of non-European universities; all managed by Stockholm University International Office.

In collaboration with departments in six other universities the Department of Human Geography organizes two Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programmes including field courses.
