Hello everyone, for your information there is now a link to the overall results of your course evaluations. Thank you again for your participation and hard work during the course. All the best, Chris and Mark : )

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!

If you missed the final project presentations on Wednesday, August 10, then you must complete the make-up assignment. There are instructions on the bottom left, under the ‘länkar’ label. Good luck!

The presentations of the final project will take place on Wednesday, August 10. You can find the instructions at the bottom of the ‘länkar’ list. The document is called ‘Instructions for Final Project Presentations’. Good luck!

Hi everyone, I hope you are enjoying your summer. On Tuesday 2nd, our first day back, we will have a skype interview with Patrick Whitefield, the author of ‘Permaculture in a Nutshell’. He will be discussing ‘How Permaculture fits into wider sustainability initiatives’, and other topics. Please could everyone prepare 2 questions for Patrick and bring them to this lecture? This should get the debate going nicely. The lecture starts at 10.15. An updated schedule is now posted in the links section to the left.
