The Social Sciences Union
The Social Sciences Union at Lund University is the student union for those of you who study at the Faculty of Social Sciences in Lund, Malmö or Helsingborg. We protect your rights as a student, monitor the quality of your education, organize social events for students across the faculty and help you connect with the business community through our labor market activities.
Our area of activity includes the faculty's 8 departments, Lund University Centre for Sustainability Studies (LUCSUS) and the Graduate School. As a student, you are welcome to get involved in one of our project groups (communication, ball, novice, job fair, etc.), as a student representative at department or faculty level, or within one of our three sections: Agora (Campus Helsingborg), Pluto (Department of Human Geography and Economic Geography) and the Sociology Section (School of Social Sciences). You can also run to represent all social science students in the union's representative assembly, to sit on our board and for many other positions of trust. Read more here to find out all the ways you can get active in the Union!
If you ever encounter problems or have questions about your education, the union is here to support you. You can easily reach us via email, or by showing up at our drop-in times on Tuesdays between 11 am and 13 pm. You are of course also welcome at the drop-in if you are curious about the union's activities, are keen to get involved or just fancy a coffee!
The building of the Social Sciences Union (known as Samvetet) can be found at the bottom of the Paradis block, Sandgatan 9 (G:a Tapetserarverkstaden) opposite the Sociologist (building G). This is where our full-time elected representatives have their office, and it is a workplace and meeting place for our active members. Welcome here!
