Pre-arrival guide for our new students

Swedish Hanna Gräs is pursuing a global master's programme at KI
Hanna Gräs, 24, has always had a passion for medicine and research. How she would get there, however, was not as clear. From growing up in a Stockholm suburb to studying in the English-taught master's programme in translational physiology and pharmacology, her ongoing journey towards a career in life sciences is both exciting and challenging.

Increased interest in KI's global master's programmes
On January 15, the application deadline for KI's global master's programs starting in the autumn semester of 2025 closed. Interest has grown compared to last year, with a larger number of applicants from outside the EU.

The graduate: "A wonderful mix of confusion and eye openers"
On Friday, 17 January 2025, the graduating classes of four programmes at Karolinska Institutet will receive their diplomas. These programmes are the nursing programme, the medical programme, the physiotherapy programme, and the occupational therapy programme. Two of the graduating students, Måns and Niklas, have answered questions about their time at university and future plans.
