Join a diverse community of ambitious students from around the globe.

 

At Uppsala University, we do not believe in taking the easy way out.

We challenge boundaries, question established truths, and tackle problems that others do not dare to face.

Here, you will find an academic environment that pushes you beyond your limits – testing your ability to think critically, collaborate across disciplines, and solve the world’s most pressing challenges.

Knowledge is not just something you absorb – it is something you create. You will embark on an education that demands curiosity, resilience, and the courage to embrace uncertainty. Are you ready to question convention? To grow through challenges? To push forward when others hesitate? Then you are one of us.

At Uppsala University, you do not just earn a Master’s degree – you gain a platform where you prove what you are made of. You will work alongside some of the world’s brightest minds, engage in cutting-edge research, and shape a future that only the bold dare to imagine. Do you accept the challenge?

World-class education with sustainability in focus

We offer over 120 Master’s specialisations taught in English that cover a wide range of scientific fields. Studying for a Master’s at Uppsala University can be challenging, especially if you have your aim set at a research career. But it comes with great rewards. It will help you grow as a person and prepare you to tackle the global challenges of today and tomorrow, as one of our students reflects:

“The pedagogy is interactive, reflective, and people-centered. We are pushed to listen, to share, to reflect, and to learn from each other’s lived experience. That felt disorienting at first, but also strangely liberating. Instead of offering tidy answers, the class invites curiosity, uncertainty, and exploration.” – Lativa, Master’s in Sustainable Management

We also offer a limited but carefully curated range of international Bachelor’s programmes, designed to prepare you to shape a sustainable future and lay the foundation for a successful career.
