Student Organisations
There are a large number of student organisations at Umeå University. On this page we aim to one day have gathered most of them, but for now we can at least present a few. Hopefully you can find one or two that interest you and that can help enrich your social life while you are here in Umeå.
Are you curious about God or religion in general? Looking for other Christian students or people who want to find out about God? You are welcome to join us in Credo. They organise discussion groups, prayer/worship meetings,
lectures, "fika", parties and so on. You can contact them via E-mail with questions.

If you want to make new friends, find people to play some floor ball with or learn what a "sittning" is, then joining a "Nation" is definitely the thing for you! You can find them in Lindellhallen during lunchtime where they are available to answer questions or sell you a membership. You can also E-mail them.
