University of Stockholm
University Information, Campus and History
(Stockholm, Sweden)
The University of Stockholm (Stockholm University) is located in the Swedish capital of Stockholm. It was founded in 1878 and began with the name Stockholm högskola. It started out by giving several free lectures on the natural sciences. The university still carries out this tradition by inviting prominent scholars and statesmen to lecture on a wide variety of topics.
Stockholm högskola was officially allowed to grant degrees in 1904. The Swedish government granted it university status in 1960, making it Sweden's fourth state university. As the number of enrollees increased from year to year, more campuses were added to the existing one at Frescati. Today, the University of Stockholm provides a world-class learning environment to almost 40,000 students. It employs around 5,600 employees, making it one of the biggest employers in Stockholm.
