Finding your way on the University
The University of Gothenburg is located in several places in (and outside) Gothenburg, providing access to study spaces all over the city! Where you spend most of your time depends on where your education is based. This page offers an overview of our campuses and study spaces.
One university – several campuses
The University of Gothenburg does not have one single campus. The faculties and departments (which organise and run our education) are responsible for their own facilities. Therefore, our campuses and buildings are placed at various locations in and around Gothenburg. We have a close collaboration with Chalmers University of Technology, and some teaching takes place in their facilities.
How to find your classes
Where your classes take place depends on where the department that is responsible for the course you are currently studying is based. Your schedule usually indicates the location for your lectures and other classes.
Study spaces
If you want to sit in school and study, you can do so in most of our buildings, regardless of where your classes are held. Throughout the University (and at the University Library!), there are plenty of places for individual or group study
Almost all study spaces in our study areas are available to all students. There are also bookable study spaces (such as group rooms, computer labs, and laboratories) that are education-specific and can only be booked by students from a specific faculty or department.
How to find a study space:
- On this page, under Campus and Buildings A-Z, you get an overview of the study spaces at the University.
