My name is Youssef Rashid, I’m 22 years old, I’m an engineering student at PUA.
I went to the KTH for the exchange program and it was the best experience I ever went through. I got to make friends from all around the world, visit marvelous places that are worth it. I visited many cities there and I only regret not visiting more of them.
Adapting to the KTH education wasn’t easy and it required a lot of work, but at the end of the day, it was worth it because I gained a lot of information in six months more than I could’ve learned in years.
Sweden is a very gorgeous country with a lot of great natural views and many fun activities to do. KTH is one of the best universities in Sweden, yet in Europe where you can get a very good experience studying there.
The fact that you live alone in a foreign country makes you a more independent person and teaches you lots of things.
The experience is life-changing by all means and you will get memories that will stay for a lifetime.
KTH is an engineering school that has 2 big campuses in Stockholm. The courses are very practical and focus on understanding concepts.
Here are some tips for any student visiting the KTH:
Course selection:
KTH has over 400 courses that you can select from with a maximum of 30 credits (HP).
The semester consists of 2 individual periods which is good to make you focus on 2 courses only per period.
Registering or dropping a course is through the website.
Make sure to check which campus you have your lecture or tutorial at.
Campus:
You can find everything you need in the labs and the library.
There’s a lot of good places for you to study (e.g.: the library, the nimble, etc..)
Accommodation:
The KTH accommodation is very nice, but you need to choose which one is more suitable for you based on the location and the apartment type.
