Malmö University - MAU Speciality : Sociology
programme: Peace and Conflict Studies

In my programme, the first semester was the most difficult, but it was also eye opening. Studying at Malmö University entails a lot of independent study and while that worked out great for me, I realise not everyone finds that ideal.
I found the professors to be fair and professional, while the university’s stance on global issues and its administrative part can be lacking at times. However, I found the courses to be very interesting. For example I had multiple courses on the role of civil society, protest, and war from a civilian perspective.
Depending on the programme, there are elective semesters when you can either take any other courses, do an internship or go on exchange studies.
Overall, my studies at Malmö University have been extremely informative.
