Study abroad

Being able to study for one or two semesters abroad is a fantastic opportunity to experience a new academic environment and increase your understanding for other countries' cultures, language and society. You can study abroad either through the university's central agreements, MISU's departmental agreement or as a so-called Free Mover.

You will find extensive information about studying abroad on SU's webpage Go International.

Check out the webpage Naturvetare i världen - SU-studenter på äventyr (in Swedish) for examples of SU students who are or have been abroad.

Within the EU and EES, students should order a European Health Insurance Card from Försäkringskassan and primarily use that for health services.  It is frree and valid for 3 years. This gives the student the right to necessary healthcare at the same rate as the country's own inhabitants.

Student OUT insurance

Stockholm University offers a group insurance, Student OUT, for all exchange students who study or have traineeships abroad for 1 or 2 semesters. It is managed by Kammarkollegiet and does not cost anything for the student. The student needs to be registered for studying abroad under a valid agreement in LADOK.

You can also arrange for studying abroad unrelated to Stockholm University, as a so-called Free Mover. In that case you organise your studies yourself without support or financial assistance from Stockholm University.
