Department of Cultural Anthropology and Ethnology

Hello Student! Welcome to us and your studies autumn 2023.

Our teaching

We teach on campus and with our distance courses during this autumn semester. We are located on the English Park campus in Uppsala and on the Gotland campus in Visby. For distance courses in ethnology, the teaching takes place through the learning platform Studium and the video conference service Zoom. Studium and sometimes Zoom are also used for our campus courses.

It is important that you stay up-to-date on your studies - there can be changes in where, when and how the teaching will be carried out.

Admitted, admitted with conditions or on waiting list

Waiting list

We contact those on the waiting list in turn. If you have been placed on a waiting list and can be offered a place, you will be contacted by the department by e-mail. Make sure that your contact information is correct. Sometimes our message end up in the junk box – do not forget to look there!

Distance courses in ethnology

The distance courses in ethnology are given from Campus Gotland. Register for the course (or courses) you have been admitted to in Ladok.

If you have questions about the distance courses, contact coordinator Carina Johansson.

Studium – the learning platform

All course information – schedule, teacher contacts, reading instructions, literature lists, assignments and more – can be found in the learning platform Studium.

As with registration, you must first have activated your student account to be able to log in to Studium. Please note that it may take a day or so after you have register before you can log in.

You can read our syllabi without being logged in as soon as the courses are published:

Have you changed your mind, or been prevented?

If you decide to terminate a course, you do that in Ladok for students. It is important that our teachers will know if you will attend to a course or not; and important so that another student can be notified of a possible admission.

If you terminate a course before three weeks have passed since the course started, it will be an early break. You can then apply for the course again.

If you terminate a course later than three weeks after the start of the course, you will not be able to apply for the course again. If you want to resume your studies at a later time, you can contact the department directly and be re-registered if there is an available place.

Important! If you are waiting to receive a grade for a sub-module in a course, the grade needs to be registered in Ladok before you terminate the course.

More about termination.

If you want to terminate a programme, you must report it to the department.

If you waiting for to have a grade registered on a course/module it must be registered in Ladok before you terminate the programme.

Anyone who has terminated a programme and wants to study the programme again must apply to the programme to be admitted.

Information that need to be e-mailed to the department when terminating a programme:

I want to terminate the programme [name of the programme]
Student: [social security number] and [first and last name]
Termination from [YYMMDD]*

* It is possible to register a date with the current day date or backwards in time if you need it. The termination date must also be later than the examination date for a passed result on the course/module.

More about termination.

If you want to apply for an academic leave of absence, there is a special form for that. The director of studies grants or rejects. The form need to be emailed to the Department.
