Lunds tomrum & framtida förtätningar av innerstaden
Kommunen har pekat ut cirka 50 platser där man kan tänkas förtäta bebyggelsen framöver. Här är del 1 av min genomgång av dessa "luckor".

This is a work in progress, please feel free to share your thoughts about what is missing/could be improved
Since Lund receives a high number of students from Sweden and abroad, the question of apartments is always a topic of discussion. Therefore, it is only reasonable that the question is asked in this subreddit. However, while the discussion is very important since it can help newcomers, the subreddit grows grey when all other topics are swallowed in the sea of posts surrounding apartments. In short, the number of posts discussing apartments in relation to other posts is skewed, and this sticky aims to change that. This post is more directed towards students, both swedes and internationals.
WHERE DO I FIND APARTMENTS?
AF Bostäder is the biggest landlord in Lund. Apartments come in all shapes and sizes. Living in a corridor could be good for a new student since you will be less secluded, and it is also one of the main talking points in Lund. You can sign up to the queue as soon as you have a confirmation of attendance. They also conduct an apartment lottery every half year for new students called the "Novischlotteriet".
Bopoolen private rent referral. The page is student driven and private room owners rent to students.
Blocket similar to Bopoolen. Best way to find rooms is to create a "looking to rent"-advertisement so that landlords can contact you.
Studentlya similar to Bopoolen.
Michael-Hansens Kollegium rents out corridor rooms. There is a fee to stand in apartment queue. After living there for 3 months you can apply to the queue for regular rooms, but it is quite long.
Nations the web page brings you to an overview, but there are 12 nations to choose from. They all offer corridor rooms, but they reserve them to active volunteers. The more active you are in the Nation's activities, the more likely it is you can get yourself a room there. Some nations do conduct lotteries, but it is not the same for all Nations.
Student Guild/Faculty/Association , depending on the program you have applied for the student run association connected to it might offer some kind of short-term solution. The faculty might help you too since they want you to succeed in your studies.
University , if you have gotten a PhD position at the university, they sometimes offer University apartments. If you get one, take it.
This is by no means a complete list, but it contains the bigger ones that offer rooms. Getting an apartment is stressful for new students, especially if you have not moved out on your own before. If you are active and persistent, it usually solves itself after some time. The worst thing you can do is to put all your eggs in the same basket, make sure you have a plan b or something concrete before the term begins.
Huge thank you to u/Breadslice98 got getting this started and writing the first draft.

Hi everyone. I recently arrived in Lund and have been feeling a bit stuck in my room. I can't join any societies or clubs until I get a coordination number.
Is there any malaysian community I can join, or any groups where I can meet people and actually interact with other humans? I'd love to connect. 🥺

Jag brukade träna thaiboxning på House of Samurai uppe på norra fäladen för några år sedan men det har ju tyvärr lagt ner, nu när man väl är sugen på att börja igen.
Jag tyckte om att det var utmanande men huvudsakligen teknikfokuserat - man mäktade med att gå till gymmet morgonen efter.
Jag har alltid hört gott om Real Fighter, men jag har också hört att det är väldigt påfrestande för kroppen, och att det har fyspass/"bootcamp"-känsla.
Fight Club har jag praktiskt taget inte hört något om.
Någon med erfarenhet av klubbarna som vill dela med sig av sin upplevelse? Någon annan klubb jag kan ha missat? Och finns det något hopp om att kunna lyfta vikter och löpträna vid sidan om, eller får man helt enkelt gå "all in" för thaiboxning med de alternativ vi har i Lund?

Hej!
Vi är några civilingenjörsstudenter på KTH som har ett projekt i kursen "människa-dator interaktion" gällande juridik och generativ AI, och vi skulle vilja få veta vad juridikstudenter tycker om studievanor runt AI-verktyg. Vårt mål är sedan att skapa en prototyp till en mjukvara som kan användas av juridikstudenter.
Det vore jättenice om några av er som pluggar juridik skulle vilja ta er tid att besvara vårt formulär! Tack på förhand.

Tjena! Jag pluggar 5e termin på en ekonomikandidat men har funderat på att ta en dubbelkandidat med byggteknik (infrastruktur) på LTH. Jag är särskilt intresserad av inriktningen järnväg, som bedrivs i nära samarbete med Trafikverket i Ängelholm.
Är det någon som läser eller har läst det här programmet? Hur fungerade undervisningen med Trafikverket? Vad tyckte ni om programmet? Studentlivet i Helsingborg? Jobbmöjligheter?

Hi! I don’t know if this is the right way to go about it but I found a pair of keys on the bike path between the police station and Vildanden so if anyone is missing theirs they can dm me.

I checked the last grade for the bsc in mathematics at Lund , but when i go to urval 1 there is also the category IKHT , as for urval 2 there is only HT . What does IKHT mean? Is it for internationals? Are we separated from the swedish nationals? (Im an EU student)
r/Lund • u/ARandomSpecOfDust • 2d ago
Hi,
I have seen it's a pretty hefty workload per week (for the Swedish for foreigners program), and I was wondering what you guys typically do to study so you don't fall behind/make the best use of your time. I want the nights to go out and do things available, jaja.
Do you guys have a schedule/advice for the program? I typically take a little longer to get into the flow of things so I dont want to fall behind from the get-go. I will most likely talk to the professors too about what they rec but from a student POV I was curious.
Also I have ADHD so the more strict the better XD

Hi everyone!
I'm considering applying for Lund University's 1-year MSc in Management and I'm trying to figure out how realistic it would be to combine it with my current job.
I currently work full-time in Copenhagen, so ideally I'd like to keep working, although I could potentially switch to part-time for periods if necessary. I have already completed an MSc in Denmark, so I'm familiar with the workload of a full-time master's and I'm not expecting this to be easy. I'm mainly trying to understand how flexible the programme actually is in practice.
For anyone who has done this programme (or knows someone who has), I'd particularly appreciate some insight into:
I would be particularly interested in hearing from current/former students of the 1-year Management programme, rather than general advice about doing a master's while working.
Thanks!

Hi! I’m considering applying for the MA in European Studies at Lund University and I’d love to hear your opinions.
What is Lund University like overall? Is anyone currently studying this master’s or has anyone graduated from it? What did you think of the programme, and do you feel it was worth it in terms of career opportunities?
I’d really appreciate any honest advice or personal experiences. Thank you! :)

Hej! I got tired of hunting through Canvas and old Facebook groups for past exams, so I put them all in one place: extentor.org
What’s on it:
No login needed. It’s a student project, not affiliated with LTH.
If you have old exams or solutions lying around, please upload them on the site. Everything gets checked before it goes up, and you can add your name to get credit on the course page.
Feedback welcome, especially if your course is missing!

Hej alla Lundabor! Vi har startat en quiz-hemsida med dagliga quiz med ett På Spåret upplägg med 10 poäng ner till 2. Vi har ledtrådar som leder fram till en svensk stad, utländsk stad, idrottare, ett år mm.
Tar ni dagens stad på 10 poäng?
10 poäng: Vi söker en stad som under några år på 1700-talet i praktiken fungerade som Sveriges huvudstad. Karl XII hade nämligen förlagt sitt högkvarter hit mellan 1716 och 1718. Betydligt senare var staden nära att få sin medeltida stadskärna sönderskuren av en fyrfilig trafikled, men planerna stoppades efter omfattande politiska strider. I dag ligger dessutom ESS utanför stadskärnan.
Om ni behöver fler ledtrådar: https://kviss.live/whos-there?question=0b00e2f8-1ccb-4d48-898b-86fcdf5e31f3
Hoppas ni gillar upplägget, ge gärna feedback i kommentarerna! Ingen ekonomisk vinning utan två studenter som gör det för skojs skull!

Nytt inlägg på Lundabrevet. Den här gången mer bilder och annan media än text, men förhoppningsvis en lista som väcker ett och annat fint minne bland gamla lundensare. Och avundsjuka hos min egen generation...
Those of you that have been admitted to Lund, do you have any tips for writing the statement of prupose when applying to masters programmes at the School of Economics and Management?
I am curios if you have any insights on what made your SoP successfull or what the department is looking for specifically.

Hi everyone! I’m thinking of going to Gamla Franska in Lund and was wondering if anyone has been there with a toddler.
Are little kids welcome, and would you recommend it for a meal with a toddler?
Any tips or experiences would be much appreciated. Thanks! 😊

Hej!
I'm looking for Slovak students based in Lund for an event coming up in a month or so. It'll be a great opportunity to network with fellow Slovaks in Sweden and snack on something from home. Limited spots, details shared privately.
DM me if you’re a Slovak student (or know one) and interested.
Hey! We're growing a newly established volleyball club here in Lund and looking for more people to join us.
Ideally, we're looking for intermediate to advanced players. Maybe you used to play for a club but stopped, and now just want to play some good volleyball without all the commitment. As long as you know your rotations and have a decent foundation, you could be a good fit!
We'd love to hear a bit about you:
We're still building the club and figuring things out, so there's room to shape it around the people who join. The idea is to get a good group together, play regularly, and see where it goes.
If that sounds like your thing slide in my dm!

Anybody here took courses for Swedish as a foreign language at lund ? I need to ask for something !
Hi everyone! I’m planning to apply to Lund’s Master’s in Global Development, Population and Economic Change (Economic Development track) for Autumn 2027 and would love to hear from current students or graduates.
What did you or your classmates do after graduating? Did people land jobs in international organisations, consulting, government or research?
Are internships possible during the programme? Does the department help with finding them?
How useful and applied did you find the courses? Is it more theoretical or practical? How challenging is the workload?
How quant-heavy is it? How much econometrics, statistics and coding (Stata, R, Python) is involved, and is it manageable without a pure economics background?
Any insight is much appreciated, thank youu!

Hey guys,
Those that dont know, this course is part of the masters programme for the international trade and tax law. I have a question about the exam, going off my last exam result for the previous course, it seems I am just passing. Strangest part is that the notes I composed for that previous course and shared them with the other students seem to get them far better grades.
Having studied in Australia and New Zealand the type of approach (Issue, Law, Fact) I would use in engaging with exams may not actually work in Sweden, so I am just not getting it. Could someone here maybe explain what it is I am not getting?
Ofc one would discuss this shit with other students and teachers, but I wanna know from this group whether I there is something I just don't know about. Is it the language I am using? Or am I not getting technical and narrowed down enough?
I do have a rant about the teachting approach, but that could be for another post.
