Introduction day for new students
New as a student at the Swedish Defence University? Welcome to the introduction day on September 2nd, which is the first day of the autumn term 2025.
Important information!
The Swedish Defence University is a protected site, so you need to keep the following in mind:
- Arrive early - there may be a queue at the entrance.
- Do not forget your ID and keep it handy to facilitate when you need to identify yourself. You will need to show ID and be checked against a list to gain entry.
- Leave large bags and bulky outerwear at home. We do not have a staffed cloakroom. Be prepared to be searched by our security guards.
More about the introduction day
The first day of the fall semester is September 1, and on this day, the Swedish Defence University invites new students to an orientation day at Drottning Kristinas väg 37. You will receive more information about the studies and meet teachers and fellow students.
We will also provide a light vegetarian lunch according to the schedule below. Towards the end of the day there will be a gathering at the Officers' Mess for all new national and international students. The Student Union also has a kick-off during the day.
The schedule will be published later this summer.
At the Studentweb on the webpage "New student", we have also collected information that we hope will be useful to you during your first time as a student at the Swedish Defence University.
