What will I gain from learning Swedish?

If you know the local language, it will be easier to become part of the community at work and in society. If you know Swedish, you are more likely to be successful and want to stay in Sweden.

It also increases your chances of having a career at KTH. Often, knowledge of Swedish is a prerequisite for you to be able to participate in and take on tasks that are regulated by our official mission.

Tailor-made courses

KTH Language and Communication offers courses in Swedish for those who are recruited internationally. We can tailor the course to your needs and those of KTH.

During the lessons you will practise speaking Swedish. We talk about social issues, Swedish culture, KTH as a workplace and your professional role.

We can also offer individual tuition. The private lessons are completely tailored to your needs and wishes.
