University Buildings and Facilities

We are constantly working to improve our campuses so that they cater to the diverse needs of students, staff, and visitors. Our goal is that they are natural hubs for stimulating discussion, focused study, and meaningful social engagement.

Libraries

The libraries on Campus Borlänge and Campus Falun are open venues for study and the exchange of experiences and knowledge. You can choose from a variety of study places: small and large group rooms, quiet reading rooms, open study spaces, and comfortable seating areas.
