Teacher trainee programme 11. How many years of study had you completed before going on exchange? 2 years Studies 12. Tell us about your studies on your exchange. If you are stuck for ideas you can for exemple write about: The differences between Uppsala University and the exchange. What were the teachers like? What courses would you recommend (or not) for future exchange students? The relationship between teachers and students. The academic level and quality of your courses. Access to computers. Examinations... One of the major differences between Sussex and Uppsala is that at Sussex you only have one 50 min lecture and one 50 min seminar a week. The lectures seem more rushed and do not cover as much as a lecture at Uppsala. Sussex has a good academic level in its modules, I had mostly taken linguistics courses at Uppsala which somewhat made choose first year modules which upheld a good entry level academiawise. Regarding examinations, they write a lot of essays which (normally) Swedish students are not very custom to. Studying linguistics, i was quite familiar with it. However, the last two weeks of term are exam weeks which means that if all the four modules have exam examination you will end up with four exams within two weeks.. I highly recommend to keep this in mind when looking at modules, maybe take one or two that do not have a written exam at the end. Orientation and reception 13. Tell us about how it was to arrive and settle in. I arrived at Heathrow airport where the international office had arranged bus transfer to campus. At arrival, my luggage from Sweden was delayed and the Sussex greeting people were very sweet and helpful. Once at campus, they put us in smaller groups and took us to our blocks. During the first week at Sussex, the international office organized events where you could meet people. Vetenskapsområdet för medicin och farmaci, Uppsala universitet Sida 132 av 197

Enskilda enkäter för Utbytesrapport/Exchange report 2014/15 Accommodation 14. Describe your accommodation. What type of accommodation did you have, where you satisfied? Do you have any tips for future students? I had en ensuite dorm, i.e. I had my own shower and toilet and shared kitchen with five other people. The flat was all you can ask for, small common room with kitchen which was big enough and a good space to hang out. The dorm was alright, being used to live in my own apartment I found it a bit claustrophobic in the beginning but soon got over it and,looking back at it, it was not a problem. On the one hand, it is a bit expensive to live in an ensuite. I paid 138 per week and even though all bills were included I still feel it was a bit much. On the other hand, it was really nice to have my own toilet and shower. Furthermore, living on campus made it really easy to meet a lot of people not having to think too much about bus timetables. Your finances 15. Describe the cost of living. Did you find CSN adequate? How was the rent in comparison to your rent in Uppsala? Did you undertake part-time work in addition to your studies? I had the time to take on a part-time job, I had friends who did it but I decided not to. If you exclude rent, the living costs are pretty much the same as in Sweden, however I paid a monthly rent slightly more expensive than what I pay for a big one room apartment in Uppsala, including mortgages and bills. CSN was adequate on a student budget, i.e. pasta and noodles... I had saved up some money over the summer and also went home to work during Christmas break. If I would not have saved up over the summer or gone back home over Christmas break it would have been rough. Free time 16. What did you do in your free time? Did the university arrange any special activities? Where there any activities specifically for exchange students? Were you happy with what was on offer? There are loads of societies at Sussex to join, one for every taste. I joined the basketball society (team), the Italian society (learned to speak a bit Italian). I know that the international office organizes trips quite often but I never went, I meet people with whom I traveled with. Your exchange on the whole 17. Please sum up your exchange experience. If you have any other tips for future exchange students, or any other comments feel free to include them here. My experience here at Sussex has been amazing. I will bring back a lot of good memories. Academiawise, I took modules not in line with my degree which turned out very interesting. I met a lot of British as well as international people some who I honestly believe I will keep in touch with for a very long time. Sometimes I felt a bit homesick and I doubted my reasons for coming here but all in all I do not regret anything about this year. Approval 18. Your report will be available for future exchange students in printed form at the International Office and will be sent by email to individual students requesting it. Do you also approve the publishing of your exchange report on Uppsala University s website? Yes Vetenskapsområdet för medicin och farmaci, Uppsala universitet Sida 133 av 197

Person 62 Basic Information 1. Name Klara Höjenberg 2. E-mail address: klara.hojenberg@hotmail.com 3. Exchange university University of Sussex 4. City Brighton 5. Country United Kingdom 6. First semester of your exchange Swedish autumn semester (HT) 7. Academic year 2014/2015 8. What subject area/s did you study during your exchange? Computer Science/informatics, Project Management 9. Level of studies at the exchange university Undergraduate 10. What are you studying at Uppsala University? Systemvetenskapligt Kandidatprogram 11.

What courses would you recommend (or not) for future exchange students? The relationship between teachers and students. The academic level and quality of your courses. Access to computers. Examinations... Den största skillnaden mellan UU och University of Sussex (UoS) utbildningssystem var att vid UoS läser man alla terminens kurser parallellt, men examination periods i slutet av terminen. Från UU är jag van vid att läsa en kurs i taget, göra inlämningsuppgifter och tenta, därefter gå vidare till nästa kurs. UoS:s system kräver mer planering och studieteknik, för att hinna med alla ämnen och inlämningsuppgifter. Jag tror de flesta universitet i Storbritannien gör på samma vis då alla var vana vid detta där. Nackdelar med detta system är att man lätt inbillar sig att man har mycket fritid och glömmer att göra arbete kontinuerligt under terminen, för att sen ha panikmycket att göra när alla kursers deadlines närmar sig. En annan sak är att alla kurser hade deadlines ungefär samtidigt, vilket gjorde det svårt att göra arbetet ordentligt, när man var tvungen att dela fokus och tid mellan flera ämnen samtidigt. Fördelar med detta system är att man faktiskt har en del fritid om man bara tänker till på hur man ska fördela sin tid och sina studier. Som utbytesstudent tillhörde jag inte något specifikt program utan jag läste kurser som passade in i mitt svenska program. Det innebar att jag lärde känna många nya personer från olika kurser på en gång, i stället för allt eftersom kurserna avklarades, som det hade varit hemma på UU. En annan sak som skiljde sig från det jag är van vid från UU är att vid UoS hade man ett fast schema för hela terminen, så om du hade Project Management 13:00 på onsdagar hade du det VARJE onsdag, hela terminen. Detta var bra om man hade te x måndagar och/eller fredagar lediga, men mindre bra om du hade en eller flera föreläsningar spridda mån-fredag. Vetenskapsområdet för medicin och farmaci, Uppsala universitet Sida 175 av 396

Undervisningen var till stor del i undervisningsform, i stora salar. En av kurserna jag gick hade mindre deltagare, vilket gjorde att föreläsningarna var mer intima och lätt att ställa frågor och föra dialog med läraren. Något jag verkligen uppskattade var att salarna var modernt utrustade och alla lektioner spelades in och gjordes tillgängliga för behöriga elever på skolans studentportal. Det var väldigt bra vid repetition av kursmaterial, eller om man råkat missa en föreläsning! Relationerna med lärarna var ganska lika som vid UU, de var hjälpsamma om man bad om hjälp och svarade gärna på frågor. UoS gav eleverna tillgång till stora datorsalar med nödvändig mjukvara för deras programinriktningar - informaticstudenterna hade flertalet stora datorsalar vi kunde använda. Något jag uppskattade var ordentliga, justerbara kontorsstolar - inga ryggdödargungstolar som i Ekonomikums datorsalar... Examniationsmetoderna varierade för kurserna, men det som kom som en glad överaskning var att UoS helt klart är ett universitet med MÅNGA internationella studenter och exchange students. De har därför tagit fram lösningar för oss studenter som eventuellt har svårt att delta vid examineringsperioderna. I kurser det behövdes slapp jag göra tentor och fick i stället göra alternativa inlämningsuppgifter eller blev enbart bedömd på inlämningsarbeten. Om du är osäker på hur detta kommer gå, prata med din lärare. Det är faktiskt ett råd som löser de flesta problem: om du är osäker på en uppgift, en kurs eller om du vill byta ämne - prata med din lärare och/eller din institution! De är mycket hjälpsamma, och byta kurser på plats är mycket smidigare och enklare än vad det är i Sverige (typ omöjligt). Jag fick otroligt mycket och bra hjälp av min department Informatics and Engineering. Orientation and reception 13. Tell us about how it was to arrive and settle in. Jag bodde hos vänner till familjen en vecka innan jag fick mitt rum på campus (som jag två veckor senare bytte till rummet på King s Road, vid stranden). Det var kul för då hann jag orientera mig lite i staden, sola och njuta av vackra Brighton. När freshers week drog igång var det som inspark eller nollning, men inte programstyrt som det är i Sverige, utan generellt för alla. Detta var lite synd då man höll sig till de man eventuellt kände (i mitt fall svenskarna), man bondande inte med nya kursare eller så på samma sätt. Men det var kul, var dock beredd på att freshers generellt är 18 år och super som den värsta Uppsalastudent. Vi fick ganska bra orientering och mottagning av Universitetet, del som utbytesstudenter men också institutionen man skulle tillhöra, genomgång av campusområdet (som är gigantiskt), biblioteket (som också är gigantiskt) osv. Jag fick influensan eller något annat jobbigt i samband med att freshers-veckorna drog igång så jag missade en del, men jag tycker ändå att man kom in i det hela relativt fort. Accommodation 14. Describe your accommodation. What type of accommodation did you have, where you satisfied? Do you have any tips for future students? När jag fick beskedet att jag skulle till Brighton (typ februari) började jag genast ta reda på vilka områden man helst ville bo i eller undvika, hur långt det var till UoS från stan osv. UoS erbjuder utbytesstudenter boende i deras egna bostäder, men kunde endast garantera helårsstudenter rum. Detta gjorde mig nervös och letade därför boende på engen hand, vilket inte var det lättaste från Sverige. Det är ganska dyrt med boende i Brighton, och du kan inte räkna med att hitta ett rum i stan för mindre än 90 pund i veckan. Rummen på campus är dyrare. Jag bestämde mig för att Vetenskapsområdet för medicin och farmaci, Uppsala universitet Sida 176 av 396

inte bo på campus, då det tar ca 20-40 min in/ut till stan, beroende på trafik. Jag ville på i stan, så jag kunde se och uppleva Brighton, inte enbart campus-området. Jag blev tilldelad ett rum i Park Village, ett område ute på campus, men kontaktade via Facebook personer som bodde i off-campusboende King s Road, och ordnade så att jag fick byta rum med en tjej som ville till on-campusboende. Det var det bästa jag kunde gjort - nu hade jag ett jättestort rum på 7:e våningen med tvp fönster som vätte mot havet. King s Road ligger precis vid sea-side, med Brighton Beach och Pier precis utanför dörren. Tips är att inte stressa upp sig ang boendet, som jag gjorde. Det löser sig när det väl närmar sig, eller när du är på plats. Att bo på campus innebär att du slipper åka buss varje dag, och det mesta finns där ute, om du inte är havsutsiktsfantast eller vill mysa i stan varje dag. Men Brighton är en stad men såååå många roliga caféer, barer och restauranger, ngt jag verkligen uppskattade och försökte utforska till max. Your finances 15. Describe the cost of living. Did you find CSN adequate? How was the rent in comparison to your rent in Uppsala? Did you undertake part-time work in addition to your studies? Hyran var dyrare än i Uppsala, jag betalade ca 96 pund/veckan, vilket jag har för mig blev drygt 5000 kr i månaden, för ett rum i en 4:a. Jag älskade det dock, jättebra läge, tvättmaskin i köket, tvp badrum och härliga flat mates. Lägenheten var lite sliten, men jag stortrivdes under min tid på King s Road. Jag tog inte studielån under tiden jag var borta, men jag skulle säga att man bör räkna med att göra av med någon tusenlapp extra i månaden, jämfört med vad du gör hemma i Uppsala. Det är så mycket man kan göra och se, och jag ville inte begränsa mig i vad jag kunde uppleva och delta i! Jag har alltid jobbat extra vid sidan av studier, dock inte i Brighton. Som enterminsstudent åker man på studievisa, dvs ej tillåten att jobba under tiden. Det var skönt, för om jag hade fått det hade jag nog känt mig lite tvingad till det. Sådant som är billigare än i Sverige är dock restaurang/pubmat, alkohol, sötsaker m.m. Free time 16. What did you do in your free time? Did the university arrange any special activities? Where there any activities specifically for exchange students? Were you happy with what was on offer? Jag och andra uppsalastudenter som åkte samtidigt höll kontakt införa resan. Vi hände en del innan vi hittat andra vänner, vilket var en trygghet. Vi kom varandra väldigt nära och umgicks en del, även fast vi alla fick våra egna umgängen med. Alla var väldigt välkomnande och vänliga, och var väldigt intresserade av en när man nämnde Sverige, vilket var roligt. Engelsmännen är generell vänligare och artigare än svenskar, faktiskt! Mitt varmaste och bästa råd är att gå med i någon av UoS:s hundratals föreningar - bästa sättet att lära känna vänner och ha något kul att göra i veckorna! Jag gick med i fotbollslaget, det bästa jag gjort under utbytet. Lärde känna ett 40-tal härliga tjejer, varav några blev mina allra bästa vänner. Och så fick jag lira fotboll, såklart. Fotbollslaget anordnande många aktiviteter utöver träningar och matcher. Onsdagar var klubbarnas/föreningarnas dagar och varje onsdagkväll gick vi ut tillsammans, ofta utklädda i olika teman osv. Mycket roligt! Det finns oändligt med pubar och barer i England, inte minst Brighton, och det blev en hel del besök till dessa också. Kan liknas lite med våra studentnationer, eftersom det är väldigt chill stämning på de flesta, biljardbord, billig öl och mat, etc (om än större variation i åldergrupper osv).

Your exchange on the whole 17. Please sum up your exchange experience. If you have any other tips for future exchange students, or any other comments feel free to include them here. SÅ BRA, GÖR DET! Fantastiskt, spännande, underbart, oerhört utvecklande och jag har fått kontakter och vänner för livet. Stressa in upp dig inför boendesituationen, val av kurser/ämnen, oro att inte träffa vänner eller veta vad du ska göra på fritiden. Allt sånt löser sig, och du kommer ha det så bra. Och om du inte trivs (not likely) är det värsta som kan hända att du bara åker hem igen. Sverige är bara 2,5 timmars flygresa bort! Also, UoS International Stundet-avdelning anordnar resor och trips vi får åka på - gör det! Jag rekommenderar följade trips: Sussex countryside tour (jag blev helt förälskad i kusten, byarna/städerna och landskapet. Jag hade ingen aning om att England kunde vara så vackert), Oxford (guidad tur bland universitetsbyggnader, Harry Potter-inspelningsplatser m.m.), Bath (övernattning, kul och lärde känna nya studenter. Dock ingick inte entré till de Romerska Baden, helt klart värt ett besök), Warner Bros Harry Potter studios (supernördig och supercoolt). Lewes är också en fin stad/by nära Brighton man bör besöka. En till sak också: tiden går SÅ snabbt! Det tar ett tag att komma in i rutiner, bli riktigt avslappnad med dina nya vänner, och allt sånt. Helt plötsligt börjar det närma sig slutet på terminen och hemresa! Ta vara på tiden du har, och om du kan skulle jag verkligen rekommendera att åka ett år, i stället för en termin. Om du har några frågor eller funderingar du tror jag kan svar på får du gärna maila mig. Approval 18.

Person 73 Basic Information 1. Name Nure Aksal 2. E-mail address: nure.aksal@gmail.com 3. Exchange university University of Sussex 4. City Brighton 5. Country United Kingdom 6. First semester of your exchange Swedish autumn semester (HT) 7. Academic year 2014/2015 8. What subject area/s did you study during your exchange? International Relations 9. Level of studies at the exchange university Undergraduate 10. What are you studying at Uppsala University? Samhällsvetarprogrammet 11. How many years of study had you completed before going on exchange? 3 Studies 12. Tell us about your studies on your exchange. If you are stuck for ideas you can for exemple write about: The differences between Uppsala University and the exchange. What were the teachers like? What courses would you recommend (or not) for future exchange students? The relationship between teachers and students. The academic level and quality of your courses. Access to computers. Examinations... I took courses in International Relations my exchange at Sussex. I am very pleased with my selection of courses since they all represented different ways to study and practice International Relations. However, I felt it was difficult in the beginning to have 4 different courses at the same time, and not one at the time like we are used to in Uppsala. This was something I did get used to later on. It became easy to balance the courses since they all continued until the end of term. The teaching mostly consisted of one lecture a week and sometimes seminars. The main difference with the lectures was that some of the lecturers wanted us to have discussions, and even divide into groups sometimes and discuss. Other than that, the teachers really took into account what the students wanted to learn and how they learned the best way, and so on. Orientation and reception 13. Tell us about how it was to arrive and settle in. Sussex had a really good system to greet and meet new students. There was a bus service where they picked up exchange students from Heathrow Airport, there was also representatives from the university standing at the train station in Brighton telling you which train to take. Arriving at campus was also very easy because we got a bus taking us to the our accommodation. The residential advisors were waiting outside to greet us and to answer any questions we had. I felt it was easy to settle in because there was so many activities the first week that made you feel as a part of the university really quickly. Vetenskapsområdet för medicin och farmaci, Uppsala universitet Sida 206 av 396

Accommodation 14. Describe your accommodation. What type of accommodation did you have, where you satisfied? Do you have any tips for future students? Me and another girl wanted to live in Brighton instead of the campus but found it difficult since most of the letting agents in the city wanted a contract for at least 9 months and we were only there for one term. And also because of that we were not guaranteed accommodation on campus, only full year students were. However, getting to know alot of students that were also there for only one term it seemed as if everyone who wanted accommodation on campus got it. I lived on campus in Norwich House, were I had a big room with a bed, sink, closet and table. I shared bathrooms and kitchen with 9 other students. Now thinking about it I am very glad to have lived on campus, it was were I had almost all my friends and so it was easy to always hang out, but it also took me 3 minutes to get to class. It was nice to always have people to spend time with, to be able to just go into the kitchen in my accommodation and find people there either cooking or just talking. I became really close with my flatmates so I can really say I was pleased with the accoommodation. Your finances 15. Describe the cost of living. Did you find CSN adequate? How was the rent in comparison to your rent in Uppsala? Did you undertake part-time work in addition to your studies? My accommodation cost me around 5200 SEK a month, and I rented for 4 months. This was for very high for me considering I only had around 3000 in Uppsala for a shared apartment. I did have full CSN for the 4 months and actually found it quite adequate. We got the whole sum at once which required me to calculate how much I could spend each month. Also getting the Erasmus scholarship helped a bit. The money was enough for food, some trips planned by the school and to actually have a fun student life. Since there is alot of students i Brighton there was actually a lot of student discounts in shops and so on. Free time 16. What did you do in your free time? Did the university arrange any special activities? Where there any activities specifically for exchange students? Were you happy with what was on offer? Sussex had the International Student Support who planned trips for international students only. I joined trips to Bath/Stonehenge, Oxford and the Harry Potter Studio Tour. These were very well planned with bus from campus and also with free time in each place. There was much more that they offered, and also some societies arranged trips that you could join if you joined the society. Other than the trips I did some other traveling to near places such as London, Lewes and Seven Sisters. I did feel there was enough free time and spent alot of it getting to know new people and also with friends exploring Brighton and Campus life. Your exchange on the whole 17. Please sum up your exchange experience. If you have any other tips for future exchange students, or any other comments feel free to include them here. To sum up my term at Sussex, it was some of the best months of my life! I think everyone who has the opportunity to go on an exchange programme should do it. You get to know so many people from different cultural, religious and educational backgrounds. Just to get to study in a different way gives you a perspective on things and will also help you in the future to ad more to your studies Vetenskapsområdet för medicin och farmaci, Uppsala universitet Sida 207 av 396

at your home university. I believe I have learned many things during my studies at Sussex, and I have made friends all over the world. You don t only learn in your clases but you learn so much just by talking with your friends about their countries and cultures. One tip is to join societies because they are a good way to meet new people and make friends. If I get the chance to go on another exchange I wouldn t hezitate to go! Approval 18. Your report will be available for future exchange students in printed form at the International Office and will be sent by email to individual students requesting it.

Person 38 Basic Information 1. Name Emilia Eriksson 2. E-mail address: emilia ericsson@hotmail.com 3. Exchange university Sussex University 4. City Brighton 5. Country England 6. First semester of your exchange Swedish autumn semester (HT) 7. Academic year 2014/2015 8. What subject area/s did you study during your exchange? Global Studies 9. Level of studies at the exchange university Undergraduate 10. What are you studying at Uppsala University? Urban Planning 11. How many years of study had you completed before going on exchange? 2,5 Studies 12. Tell us about your studies on your exchange. If you are stuck for ideas you can for exemple write about: The differences between Uppsala University and the exchange. What were the teachers like? What courses would you recommend (or not) for future exchange students? The relationship between teachers and students. The academic level and quality of your courses. Access to computers. Examinations... The biggest difference for me was that we had four courses at the same time, i m used with one course at a time. At Sussex, the teachers was very helpful, and really engaged with their subjects. All of my courses were in the subejct area Global Studies, and all my courses were really interresting and funny. I only took level 4 courses (first year), but actually I m in the third year, so the courses were qiute easy, but I think they where good, because I wanted to learn better english, that was the main reason for my exchange, so the level 4 courses were good for that. Orientation and reception 13. Tell us about how it was to arrive and settle in. When I arrived, I got a really good welcoming. I lived at campus, and they had staff at the reception and at my house, whom helped me with my bags and the keyes. For me it was quite different to live in a dorm, but I got used to it after a while. Accommodation 14. Describe your accommodation. What type of accommodation did you have, where you satisfied? Do you have any tips for future students? I lived at campus, in a dorm with 11 other persons. I m 22 years old and almost all of my roommates where 18/19. It was the first time away from home for many of them, so it was quite messy in our kitchen the whole time.. Vetenskapsområdet för medicin och farmaci, Uppsala universitet Sida 109 av 396

But except for that I was satisfied with the accomodation. It was nice to live at campus, it was close to the schoolbuildings, and it was not that hard to go down by bus to Brighton city. Your finances 15. Describe the cost of living. Did you find CSN adequate? How was the rent in comparison to your rent in Uppsala? Did you undertake part-time work in addition to your studies? My rent was a lot higher in Brighton than at home. In Uppsala I payed 3300 kr for a two-roomed flat, that i shared, and in Brighton I payed around 5200 kr for a quite small room, with shared bathroom and kitchen. The money from CSN was just enough, but I traveld quite a lot during my stay, so if I hadn t done that, I could have spent more money on food or something else. I was not allowed to work during my stay because I got a scholarship from Erasmus, but with the extra money from the scholarship I didn t need to work. Free time 16. What did you do in your free time? Did the university arrange any special activities? Where there any activities specifically for exchange students? Were you happy with what was on offer? The school had a lot of activities, both for all students, and also only for exchange students. I went on four trips with the international office, for international students. We where to IKEA, Oxford, Bath&Stonehenge and to the Harry Potter world in London, all of these trips where well organised and didn t cost that much. There were more trips, but I didn t go. Many of the different societies also had trips. Your exchange on the whole 17. Please sum up your exchange experience. If you have any other tips for future exchange students, or any other comments feel free to include them here. I am very satisfied with my excange at Sussex University. The main thing that was bad about my excange was that I was only there for one term, three months. I would have wanted to stay an extra term, just to be able to do everything I wanted, and also then I would have the opportunity to get to know the town and all the people there better. Approval 18.
