Courses and programmes

In English, the department offers single courses (bachelor's level courses and master's level courses) and a master's programme in education with an international and comparative specialisation. The programme provides a deeper understand and the skills to analyse learning and educational phenomena in different societies and cultures, as well as a holistic perspective on learning, teaching and education.
The master's programme is one of the most popular international master's programmes at Stockholm University, and annually welcomes students from all over the world.
Campus Frescati - Frescativägen 54

Since summer 2009 you will find us in a red brick house in the northern part of campus, Frescativägen 54, just behind the Museum of Natural History. Here you are greeted by a more familiar and quiet environment with lots of green areas and historical buildings. It may seem a bit hard to find us. But when you see the sculpture The Pearl by Frida Tebus beside the entrance, then you are here.

Meet our students
Soovin Oh from Ewha Womans University in Seoul, Korea is a student in the Master's Programme in Education with International and Comparative specialization.
I would say this program is not easy, but I learned a lot from the readings and assignments. The discussions and presentations trained me to get out of my comfort zone.

Hernando Soto from Bogotá, Colombia, student in the Master's Programme in Education with International and Comparative specialization.
Without any doubt, the most fantastic feature of the program is the international setting. International education is not only explored conceptually and theoretically, but it is also a natural part of the daily experience.
