For students attending the Master's Programme in Molecular techniques in Life Science Information for Newly Admitted Students to the Master's Programme in Molecular techniques in Life Science in 2025
Welcome to the Master's Programme in Molecular techniques in Life Science.
Here you can find important information regarding introduction, registration and the start of the programme.
Activate your student account
An active student account is necessary for studies at KI! If this is the first time you are studying at KI, you must activate your account according to the instructions under the headline “Activation code” at our Student Account web page. You can activate your student account from 1 August 2025. The account must be activated before you can register for your course.
An activation code will be sent to your email in June 2025 (to the same email address that you used when you applied for the programme), so check your spam/promotion folder if you have not received it. If you cannot find your activation code, contact studentit@ki.se for guidance. If you already have a Swedish National registration number, you can see more options at the Student Account web page.
Register for your first course
Once you have activated your student account, you must register for the first course of the Master's Programme in Molecular techniques in Life Science.
The registration is open between 18 August and 3 September (23:59) 2025. If you fail to register within this period, we will consider your study place declined and offer it to a waitlisted applicant.
The first course of the programme is:
Applied Communication, 5MT015, 6.0 credits
Once you are registered, you are officially considered a student and can participate in course activities and teaching.
Note that you must also participate in the mandatory roll call on the first day.
You register by logging in to your student account in Ladok: https://www.student.ladok.se/student/loggain
You can always log in and check your registrations and results from your studies on the link above.
If you need to decline your study place, please do so by logging in to your account at antagning.se or universityadmissions.se and go to “My pages”. If you decide to withdraw from your study place after the registration period has started on August 19, kindly contact the programme officer.
