Collaboration partner or guest

To ensure that your partner or guest has the best possible stay, there are several details to consider. Here we have summarized the information that is useful to know.

Collaboration partners and guests do not receive a salary from KTH. Depending on needs, necessary accesses need to be ordered through the school's operational support. Examples of collaboration partners can be scholarship holders with their own funds, academic collaboration partners from another university, companies, board members, consultants. A guest generally stays here for a shorter period of time and usually only needs WiFi and in some cases an access card during their stay.

Details to consider

A manager's approval is required before you invite and any access can be distributed.

Preparations

Depending on the length of stay, where in the world the person is from and the purpose of the visit, there are several details to keep in mind. Please review "think about before" for as smooth a stay as possible.
