A warm welcome to students on KI’s global bachelor’s and master’s programmes
The stage in the Erling Persson Hall in Aula Medica was brightly decorated with balloons and flowers as KI welcomed around 400 students on the global bachelor's and master’s programmes . After the ceremony, the students had a chance to meet different parts of KI on hand to welcome them and answer questions. Another highlight was the distribution of the coveted KI backpacks. Welcome, all new students!

What's it like to be a new student at KI?
If you are reading this, you might be a student, an alumnus, or considering studying at Karolinska Institutet. Regardless, you probably have your own idea of what it is like to be a new student at KI, whether you have experienced it or not. Here, two students – one who is brand new and one who has studied a few semesters – answer questions about how it is, or was, to be new KI students.
Interactive game helps students tackle antibiotic resistance
In a pilot project within the course Biomedical Communication, students have tackled the complex issue of antibiotic resistance (AMR) through gamification. When the AMR Knowledge Space Game was integrated into the curriculum, the response from both teachers and students was overwhelmingly positive. With the success of the pilot, the interactive game may become part of future courses and educational research at KI.
