Traineeships and field studies abroad
As a student at Uppsala University, you have the opportunity to engage in a variety of study-related activities abroad such as traineeships, field studies, work-integrated learning (VFU), or independent projects such as thesis work (degree projects), C, D, or master's theses, and doctoral dissertations.
Erasmus Traineeship
Within Erasmus+, there is the opportunity to apply for a number of grants to finance traineeships, field studies, or any other form of study-related activity at a company, organisation, or university.
Minor Field Studies
A grant programme provided by Sida that offers you the opportunity to conduct field studies in a low- or middle-income country to collect data for a degree project.
Opportunities for PhD students
Within the framework of the Erasmus+ programme, PhD students can go abroad as both students and staff. PhD students have the opportunity to not only take courses themselves but also teach at another university, engage in staff exchanges, and participate in various study-related activities such as field studies or data collection for their doctoral thesis. You can find more information on the staff gateway or contact erasmus@uu.se to learn more.
