If you could not attend yesterday’s drop-in registration, you can now register digitally through the university’s Student portal (www.studentportalen.uu.se). The registration is open for a limited time only. You need to be accepted to the course to be able to register.

If you haven’t applied, but would like to study at Cemus during the fall semester, you can make a late application through www.studera.nu. Please contact our administration as well (utbildning@csduppsala.uu.se), or the course coordinators directly, to get information about the course schedule. Don’t wait for the application to go through the system. It takes a few days and you don’t want to miss interesting and important lectures and seminars.

Welcome all to the new semester at Cemus!

The course coordinators, Cecilia Esbjörnsson and Jesse Anderson, are working on the last pieces in the preparation phase and are looking forward to see you all at the course this fall.

Throughout the duration of this course we will explore and analyze the environmental, social and economic perspectives in Sweden that contribute to sustainable development. We will further delve into the norms that have driven the sustainable development movement in Sweden and the perceptions that have placed Sweden as a forerunner in this field. Case studies will be utilized to help build the fundamental frameworks for critical analysis, bringing together theoretical aspects with methodologies and practices.

Registration will take place the 25th of August in Cemus library. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at sdswe@csduppsala.uu.se.

All the best,
Cecilia & Jesse
