How is the Bachelors in Physics programme at LU?

I am a 16-year old high schooler, doing the IB diploma, and I’m looking forward to apply to the BSc Physics course at LU. A question for current students, or alumni, how is the programme like? Which fields does the programme allow speciality in? Are double majors/double degrees possible, and if so, with which subjects?

Thank you so much, and have a great day!

What to Expect!

I am an international student from the US studying at Lund in Spring 2025 and am nervous about going! I am starting a master's degree in Water Resources Engineering and am wondering if anyone has advice about getting adjusted there and what to expect from my semester there. A few of my main concerns-

I am already a bit shocked by the housing, as at my university in the US, you pick housing about 6-10 months ahead. I am prioritized and not guaranteed housing in the queue for the LU housing, I have been reading mixed reviews about using both the university housing and BoPoolen. Any suggestions for housing?

Where can I find a bike on campus? I don't want to buy new, as I am only staying for half a year. Is it reasonable to bike in the winter or is there too much snow?

Some of my classes overlap in my schedule. Is that not an issue? I know that a lot of the lectures are optional, but are they recorded or is it just reviewing material given to us to do ourselves? I am not quite sure how the classes are in Sweden, but I know it is a lot less structured and is more self-teaching/learning from what I have heard.

Are there any places near Lund, in Sweden, or in Scandinavia in general that I should plan to visit whilst there? I'll be staying from mid-January to mid-June.

If anyone has recommendations or advice about any of it or Lund in general I would love to hear it :) Thanks!

Gay Bars / Other WaysTo Meet Other LGBT People

So does anyone here know if Lund as a city has a gay scene or in general places one can go to meet others LGBT folks. I'm studying here but unfortunately and weirdly enough there's no LGBT clubs from the University so I'm struggling meeting other people from the community.

Any kind of help will be appreciated thank you 🙏🏻

Housing Scam

Hi everyone, I am an exchange student securing accomodation in Lund. A landlord told me that I will need to pay first month rent and deposit in order for him to proceed with the ratification of the lease agreement contract with the city council. Sounds like a scam?

Hjälp med program i lund/ malmö

Hej! Så jag har pluggat lite enstaka kurser av intresse ett tag och har listat att jag hade velat dra mig åt programering och/eller 3D-grafik. Jag har väldigt mycket intresse för programmering och för att skapa 3d modeller, ’shaders’, och den delen av grafisk design.

Så problemet jag har är att jag vet inte vad det finns för program som inriktar sig i något av dessa hållen, jag har försökt söka upp runt det och känner att jag bara når ’dead ends’. Jag vet inte hur det står till med 3d-grafik i program (för jag har inte hittat något) men de känns som det helt klart borde finnas någonting runt programmering?

Tack!

Volontärjobb på julafton?

Som titeln lyder! Jag har jobbat på Jalla Jallas julfest på julafton några år i rad nu, och tyckt att det varit både väldigt trevligt och givande. Tyvärr blir den inte av i år, så nu är jag på jakt efter något liknande att göra eftersom jag inte har någon familj och ändå bara lär sitta hemma ensam annars.

Borde kanske tillägga att jag har absolut noll självförtroende, så att klä ut mig och spela tomte är tyvärr inget jag vågar. Men i övrigt är alla tips välkomna!

Rygga till student på LTH

Jag letar efter en ryggsäck att köpa som julklapp till en student på LTH. Han har slarvat bort sin gratisrygga han fick vid terminstarten första året och behöver något liknande. Dvs plats för laptop på skyddad plats och ett gäng tunga böcker, gärna regntålig. Har ni några bra förslag?

The "accepted" mentally

I'm adopted (from Asia //important in the story). I've lived in Sweden since I was 6 months old (Swedish to the core). The first thing I heard when I "joined l" the university was "here at the ununiversity and lund we are accepting". I have never seen this "accepting" (racism) before (I'm 27).

Is it this "small city" mentality trying to be "accepting"/ having a bigger city mentally/acceptance?

Help with survey to improve accommodation

Hi everyone,

would be great if you help my friends fill out this survey to improve housing and accommodation in Lund! They are trying to put together what a student really needs in Lund and if you can add to that, it would be super helpful!

They are specifically also looking for international students!

Should take ~5 minutes, so if you have the time to consider, I'd be thankful!

Link is here - Thank you for filling it out!

Many thanks and have a pleasant day! :)

Volunteering?

Hi! Does anyone know if it’s possible to volunteer anywhere in/near Lund (or maybe online) if you don’t speak Swedish, but you can speak English? It doesn’t have to be right now, it could also be during spring or summer. It would also be a plus if it was something that might be relevant to my degree within the social sciences, but I’m open to any suggestion! (except for second-hand stores because I have dust mite allergy).

Hej! Jag flyttade nu i höstas ner till Lund för att plugga och höll innan på med mycket musik där jag bland annat sjöng i ett band. Undrar bara om det finns någon grupp eller liknande på facebook eller något som man kan leta efter band eller andra musiker att starta band med? Är tacksam för alla tips!

Tamales in Lund

Does anyone know where I can buy tamales in Lund? It can be a restaurant (like how Fengsson's sells their dumplings) or someone's grandma, but I want to buy a large bag of tamales. Only Lund, not Malmö or anywhere else.

Teknisk fysik och bostad

Hallå eller!

Har funderat på att läsa teknisk fysik på LTH nästa år. Vad skulle ni säga är några konkreta exempel på vad man kan bli efter utbildningen? Tycker att när man googlar så står det i princip bara att det ger väldigt breda möjligheter utan att precisera någonting. Svar uppskattas.

Och nästa fråga: är det smartast att köpa en 2a som man delar med flickvännen eller bo i hyresrätt? Vad kan man räkna med för hyra i en 2a/3a, centralt?

Tack!

Studentkort

Hej! Jag är en deltidsstudent i Lund för tillfället. Jag insåg idag att jag hade glömt betala terminsavgiften för studentkort på stuk. Jag betalade den idag när jag insåg att jag missat detta och betalningen verkar ha gått igenom trots att den var försenad. Kommer jag kunna få ett studentkort den här terminen även om jag betalade sent?

Does Anybody Know?

Hey, I'm a social science student at Lund University. Could anyone suggest universities where I can pursue a PhD without a master's degree or while completing my master's degree? I am in the last few months of my master's program, but I have some papers left to complete. I am uncertain about passing my master's degree by June 2025 due to how my teachers grade my papers. Therefore, I am looking for a PhD program to begin repaying my debts as soon as possible. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Relationships in Lund

Hej everyone!

I just wanted it to say, it's really hard to went through a breakup before studying abroad... dont know if more people here had the same experience as i did, but i think its more common than usual. I had a really healthy and great relantionship on my home country, but we had to split apart because we knew that long distance would tear us apart on the long term, I really hope we cross paths again. But I'm just happy that I can enjoy the student life abroad without worrying so much, it's gonna be long 2 years, somedays are harder thant the others, I really miss him, but I know it was for the better, he might not be my boyfriend anymore, but he will always be my bestfriend so we keep in touch from time to time.

Anyone else had a similar experience when coming to study abroad? I think its nice to vent it out this feelings
