Welcome new Master's students!

This page will be updated regularly between notification of results and start of term. As an admitted student you will also recieve roughly monthly e-mails from us with additional information, so please make sure that you are seeing these (you may want to white list info.big@su.se).

Registration, learning platform and more

If you have not already done so, please read our information for new students at the Department of Biology Education (BIG).

Information for new students at BIG

Introduction week

Please note that SERSD students have a seperate programme.

During Introduction week, you will learn what you can expect from the programme, get to know your classmates, and generally prepare you for studies at Master's level. If you are new to Stockholm University you will also have opportunity to learn about practicalities when studying at BIG, including how to find your way on campus.

The programme is still preliminary and changes may occur, but we will do our best to stick as closely to what is presented here as we can. In the linked schedule only those events planned by us at the department are included. There are also Welcome activities planned by the central Student Office as well as the Natural Science Faculty Club (we will tell you more about this later).

The programme is presented in the same system as our course schedules, so that new students can get used to using it. Note that you can subscribe to the schedule and get automatic updates directly in your calendar app (using an iCal-link).

Sign up for introduction week

In order for us to be able to plan the activities for Intro week as best we can we ask that you sign up if you are planning to attend. You can change the information later if you need.  

How to find us

Our halls are located on the north side of Campus Frescati. Beware, as some of the halls on south side of campus can have the same room numbers! For Introduction week we will be putting up signs (se picture below) to help you find your way from the piazza by the underground.

Another tip is to use your navigator of choice to give you directions to Svante Arrhenius väg 20A, and follow the signs from there.
