Uppsala University was the first university in Scandinavia. This Swedish school has grown to include over 40,000 students studying in over nine facilities supported by €549.6 million.
The university is affiliated with multiple prestigious international university collaborations, such as Coimbra, U4, Matariki, SANORD, Nordic Centre India, Nordic Centre Fudan University, and the Baltic University Programme, as well as an especially strong exchange program with the Collège de France.
Uppsala is also a leader in the national database Swedish ScienceNet, a joint program among 10 Swedish schools that constantly updates the world on emerging empirical discoveries. The school also offers over 40 international master’s degrees in English.
This strong collaboration, combined with the school’s first-class resources, is why Uppsala has produced eight Nobel Prizes, most of which are in physics and chemistry. The school also networks with many more Nobel Prize winners, as it is a long-standing tradition for the Laureates to visit Uppsala in conjunction with the Nobel banquet in Stockholm.
