Help shape the future of Umeå University – Vision 2035

NEWS Umeå University is setting a new course for the future. The climate crisis, global security situation and shifting politics are all influencing how the university must develop. At the same time, there are great opportunities – to enhance the quality of education, increase collaboration with society, and make the university even more relevant and attractive. Work on Vision 2035 is now beginning, and as a student, you have the chance to be involved from the very start.

How you can get involved

Submit your input directly

Until 7 November, anyone who wishes can submit suggestions and ideas for the vision process via this link. What role do you think Umeå University should have within the Swedish higher education sector? What direction should we take – and which areas do you think we should develop? How would you like Umeå University to be in 2035?

Take part in a workshop

On 20 October, from 10:00 to 14:00, a workshop will be held where you, as a student, can help shape Umeå University’s new vision – Vision 2035. The day will begin with an introduction by Vice-Chancellor Tora Holmberg and Kairos Future, followed by discussions and creative exercises.

What you and the other participants come up with will form an important part of shaping the university’s future. There are 120 places available, and participants will be selected to ensure a range of perspectives from across the university. The workshop will be held in English. It’s important that you are able to attend the whole time. Lunch is included.
