Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to better understand conditions for foreign language (FL) learning in Sweden. Research suggests that foreign language learners benefit from informal target language (TL) exposure and use outside the classroom (e.g., Peters, 2018; Sundqvist, 2009). While studies conducted in a Swedish context show that there are rich opportunities to come in contact with the English language outside the classroom, little is known about the learners’ extramural exposure to and use of other FLs. In analogy with the term ‘Extramural English’ (Sundqvist, 2009), this study explores ‘Extr

Abstract:

Will life satisfaction among international students change after having an experience of studying abroad? Some previous studies indicate inequalities and issues of social mobility embedded in international student mobility. International student mobility implies physical movement and new experiences gained while studying abroad. The ubiquity of international students and their generally successful adaptation makes it necessary to understand how they manage to turn a seemingly difﬁcult situation into satisfying adaptation. One area of such concern that this study sought to explore was the stude

Abstract:

Introduction Sweden has six medical schools, from which 1,000 students graduate yearly. The programme in these schools is broadly identical and after 5.5 years at university the students do not receive a specific academic title, just a 'doctor's examination' (in Swedish). A graduate cannot, however, work as a physician after those 5.5 years. A further 18–24 months of internship are obligatory; all then work as doctors within surgery, internal medicine, psychiatry and finally as general practitioners. In total 7–7.5 years of study (with the last two years as an intern) are required, which inclu

During the 19th century very few persons in Sweden recieved a doctoral degree in archaeology. Most of them found prestigious top-positions. Today there are about 100 persons with Ph.

Most of them will never find a permanent full-time job as an archaeologist.

Instructors’ assumptions about students’ expectations can affect the opportunities and support they provide. A survey of students starting undergraduate degrees in physics in the UK and Sweden found that they expect that their laboratory work will contribute to skills acquisition, but also be difficult. Differences between institutions may reflect course structure or prior experience: for example, Swedish students have lower expectations of difficulty than UK students.

This brief article provides a description of some new ideas about admission of university engineering students in Sweden. The current system of admission is based on upper-secondary school grades and the Swedish Scholastic Assessment Test. These measures are used for admission to all higher education. For many reasons, ideas for a new admission model have been proposed. This model includes a sector-oriented admission test, which the universities are supposed to use for different purposes, such as selection, eligibility, diagnostics, and recruitment.

Abstract:

This paper shows how the newly published Linked Open Data (LOD) service and semantic portal “AcademySampo – Finnish Academic People 1640–1899” can be used for Digital Humanities (DH) research. The original primary data, based on some ten man-years of digitization work, covers a significant part of the Finnish university history based on the student registries in 1640–1852 and 1853–1899. They contain biographical descriptions of 28 000 students of the University of Helsinki, originally the Royal Academy of Turku. AcademySampo also sheds light to the academic history of Sweden and Baltic countri

Abstract:

The present study investigates variation in spelling based on British versus American English norms in the writing of university students in Sweden, Bulgaria and Italy. It also examines to what extent the students are consistent in their choice of variety. The corpus material on which the study is based allows for investigation of possible changes over time, across student levels and across nations. Contrary to findings of previous studies, the results reveal a clear preference for British English spelling for all the investigated subcorpora. The students are generally consistent in their use

Abstract:

The education of researchers in Sweden is regulated by a nationwide reform implemented in 1969, which intended to limit doctoral programs to 4 years without diminishing quality. In an audit performed by the government in 1996, however, it was concluded that the reform had failed. Some 80% of the doctoral students admitted had dropped out, and only 1% finished their PhD degree within the stipulated 4 years. In an attempt to determine the causes of this situation, we singled out a social-science department at a major Swedish university and interviewed those doctoral students who had dropped out

Abstract:

This paper describes the planning, implementation and outcome of a graduate-level consumer behaviour course taught in autumn 2008 at the University of Borås in Sweden. The course was jointly developed by marketing academics and business representatives in order to combine research-oriented studies with practical experience in a retail context. The perspectives of the lecturers, students and business representatives are considered in reviewing the benefits and drawbacks of this form of pedagogy. The findings indicate that the collaboration proved valuable to all parties and that the model could

Abstract:

Literature on thesis supervision emphasises collaborative approaches with strong and supportive relationships. Despite an increasing research interest in supervisory relationships, little cross-cultural research has been conducted on supervisory roles and relationships in expanding-circle countries. This research explores how thesis supervisors negotiate different roles in supervision and relationships with colleagues and students in EAL (English as an Additional Language) contexts. A multi-case study was employed in three contexts: a Swedish university, two Indonesian private universities and

ABSTRACTThis article discusses the use of English as a lingua franca (ELF) by engineering students and its effectiveness in content courses at a technical university, reporting the preliminary results of part of a study that investigates authentic and high-stakes speech events at a Swedish technical university. The main aim of my research is to find out what kind of divergence from standard morphosyntactic forms of English if any leads to disturbance, i.e. breakdown, in ELF speech.

Abstract:

Emergency notifications and shelter-in-place warnings on college and university campuses are generally issued in English and presuppose either a common shared language and culture or the adaptation of the warning system to a multilingual and multicultural social structure. This study examined the roles that language, culture, and emergency literacy played in international students’ perceptions of shelter-in-place notifications on a college campus. Students from Sweden, Bulgaria, and Kenya were recruited to participate in a focus group shortly after they had experienced shelterin-place warnings

This systematic literature review delves into the varied global motivations shaping English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning within diverse university contexts. Examining Tay Do University in Vietnam, the study illuminates a blend of intrinsic and extrinsic factors contributing to moderate motivation levels. Lithuania's emphasis on instrumental orientation among university students showcases the multifaceted nature of motivation. In Sweden, the research brings attention to challenges faced by newly arrived students, suggesting a need for policy adjustments to address these issues effective

Abstract:

Literature on the support of the First Year Experience (FYE) in institutions of Higher Education provides a range of modelled approaches. However, we argue that institutions still need to selectively plan which approach/es and attendant strategies are best suited to their particular contexts and institutional policy and practice frameworks and how their FYE is to be presented for their particular student cohort. This paper compares different ways of supporting students in their first year in two contrasting universities. The first case study focuses on a first year course at Stockholm Universi
