Applications for the academic year 2022-2023 will open soon
Applications for the academic year 2022-2023 will open soon and will be executed in our newly acquired mobility database, Mobility Online. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the strained health care system in the Stockholm area, the number of clinical rotations available to exchange students during the Autumn semester 2022 is still unclear. We welcome your applications but regret that we will probably not be able to accept as many of you as we wish. As of now this does not apply to those of you interested in theoretical courses, lab-oriented courses or research-oriented projects, unless the situation changes.
