One of the worlds most modern countries, Sweden
is the birthplace of many successful international
corporations.
Innovative research at Swedish universities and
companies has resulted in a number of successful
inventions. Some examples are: the computer mouse,
Bluetooth for internet mobility, the pacemaker, the
ball bearing, the Tetra Pak beverage packaging system,
the dialysis machine and internet applications such
as the online music streaming service Spotify and the
free internet calling service Skype.
These fairly recent inventions build on a long history
of excellence in academia and research. Sweden is
the home of the prestigious Nobel Prize, awarded
in Stockholm every year, and has highly acclaimed
universities dating back to the fteenth century.
Sweden has a number of large multinational
corporations, such as telecom supplier Ericsson,
automotive companies Volvo and Scania, household
appliances corporation Electrolux, bearing
manufacturer SKF, and high-tech engineering groups
Sandvik and Atlas Copco.
The deep-rooted creative environment has made
Sweden a strong nation in the areas of design, fashion
and music, with well-known international brands
such as furniture giant IKEA and clothes retailer
H&M. Sweden is also one of the largest music-
exporting countries in the world.

FERNANDO MNDEZ, BOLIVIA
Masters in Sustainable Energy Engineering,
KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm,
graduated in 2005.
What attracted you
to study in Sweden?
Ive been asked this
question in almost all
the job interviews Ive
had so far. Sweden
is one of the most
developed countries
in terms of alternative
energy and its an
issue Im passionate about. Swedes are a step
ahead of many other Europeans, so I wanted to
learn rst-hand from their knowledge.
How would you describe your two years?
Id say it was one of the most exciting
experiences in my life. The environment was
awesome; lots of people from different countries
learning from each other. The course was
challenging, with plenty of study visits and lab
hours, but it was the right mix of practical work
and theory. It also gave me job opportunities
I wouldnt have had otherwise, and now Im
working at the British Embassy in La Paz as a
Climate Change and Energy ofcer.
What would you say to students who are
considering Sweden as a study destination?
My message would be that its an overwhelming
experience; youve got to go there and see it
with your own eyes. Sweden is a great choice as
theres everything an international student would
like to have.
LU PENG, CHINA
Masters in International Supply Chain
Management, Jnkping International Business
School, Jnkping University, graduated in 2008.
What did you know about Sweden before
you arrived?
The Nordic countries have always been
mysterious to me. I knew they were very
developed, famous for their welfare and stable
education system. I was more acquainted with
Sweden than the other countries because of
its brands and music. I listened to ABBA and
The Cardigans in high school and knew about
companies such as IKEA and Volvo.
What personal impact has Sweden had on you?
It has affected me a lot, in many ways. Sweden
is very different from China and so I came with
Chinese roots but an open heart to embrace
things. Swedes have many qualitiesopenness,
humility and friendlinessand those will stay
with me.
So, what has happened since you graduated?
Well, my story with Sweden continued. I
worked at IKEA in Shanghai as a supply chain
specialist. Today, I am working for the Finnish
company Ymer Sports as
a Regional Supply Chain
Manager for Asia Pacic.
I knew about
Volvo and IKEA
It was one of the most
exciting experiences in
my life

ALICE VAN, AUSTRALIA
Masters in Design, School of Design and
Crafts (HDK), Gothenburg, graduated in 2008.
How was studying in Sweden different from
studying in Australia?
I had a very technically based education
in interior design from my university in
Melbourne, which is an exchange partner with
HDK. Sweden gave me a more liberal learning
experience. And the teachers have great
networks so you have the chance to work on
real projects with real clients.
What was your rst impression of the Swedes?
I had few expectations, but the Swedish people
made a big impression on me. I found them
genuinely helpful and honest. I was motivated
to come to Sweden because I knew it was so
different from Australia. Now I consider it my
second home.
What career advantages will your
qualication give you?
Any international experience is valuable
because it distinguishes you and shows your
level of motivation. Personally, I was engaged
in the course because I could collaborate with
students from different backgrounds. This has
expanded my eld of expertise and interest and
given me a lot more future opportunities.

PAULA GUNTAUR, CANADA
Masters in Interaction Design, Institute of
Design, Ume University, graduated in 2005.
Where did you nd information before
you arrived?
The school had a really good website where you
could read what it was like to be an international
student in Sweden and I got contact details
for international students already on the
program. That was really helpful along with the
Swedish Institutes website for foreign students,
Studyinsweden.se.
How will your education
in Sweden help further
your career?
I see myself teaching in the
future and I would take the
Swedish teaching style with
me. It was informal and the
teachers put a lot of trust in
the students. I feel like Im
indebted to the school and
still keep my ties. When I
worked as an Interaction Designer for Microsoft
in Seattle I did a project where I was able to
teach a class from Ume in northern Sweden at
a distance. Today, Im working as an Interaction
Design Director for R/GA in New York.
What are your favorite memories of Sweden?
Theres a lot of snow and the design students
would make their own ice bar on a Friday.
Traditionally, second-year students make the new
students a surstrmming welcome dinner. Its
basically a very smelly sh and no one likes it,
but we eat it together. Talking of cooking, thanks
to my Swedish housemate I am known in Seattle
for my Swedish meatballs!
The teachers put a lot
of trust in the students
Sweden is at the
forefront of research
and development
THILAK REDDY ENUGALA, INDIA
Masters in Medicinal Chemistry, Stockholm
University, graduating in 2012.

What were your rst
impressions of Sweden?
Before I came here,
I knew Sweden as a
country that encourages
scientic innovation all
over the world through
the Nobel Prize, which
has been awarded to
highly qualied scientists
every year since 1901.
Coming here, my rst
impression was that
its a beautiful country.
Swedes are very friendly.
Everything is organized here, with for example
trains and buses being on time. Stockholm is a
nice city to live in and to visit.
What makes Sweden an interesting study
destination?
Sweden is at the forefront of research and
development, especially in the eld of chemistry,
which is developing at a rapid pace. Sweden is
renowned for its high standards in education
and research at institutions like Stockholm
University, Uppsala University, KTH Royal
Institute of Technology, Karolinska Institutet,
Lund University and Ume University.

What are your future career plans?
My ambition is to get a PhD in Organic
Chemistry.

SHUHAN SHI, CHINA
Masters in General Management, Stockholm
School of Economics, graduated in 2011.
What were your rst impressions of Sweden?
I rst came to Sweden as a tourist and was very
much impressed by Swedish nature and the
hospitality of Swedish people. I came back two
years later as a student and got the opportunity
to explore Sweden further from within. To me,
Sweden is a very environmentally friendly,
clean and safe country. Swedish society in
general has very high moral standards and takes
pride in respecting individuals and diversity.
Did the school meet your expectations?
Yes, perfectly! Stockholm School of Economics
(SSE, Handelshgskolan in Swedish) is one of
the top business schools in Europe and enjoys
very high reputation for its leading academic
research and for providing the Swedish and
European business community with top
talents. At SSE, I had the chance to learn from
the best in the academic eld and to work
for the very top companies and people from
the industry, together with a group of highly
talented students from many different cultures
and backgrounds. I will denitely value this
experience for life.
How valuable has your Swedish qualication
been so far?
Very valuable. During one year of studies in
Sweden, I worked as China Day Manager
in the biggest Swedish student project with
international focusProject Chinaand also
carried out a ve-week internship at the H&M
headquarters in Stockholm. Today, Im working
as a Marketing and Sales Trainee at Volvo Car
Corporation in Gothenburg, Sweden. Without
studying in Sweden, this would never have been
possible.

MARYAM ABDISARAN, IRAN
Bachelors in Computer Science, and Masters
in Embedded Systems, Kristianstad University
College, graduated in 2008.
How well did the university meet your
expectations?
What was great was that the university was well
connected to industry. We were really kept up
to date with the market and that is extremely
important. Half the course was done in
collaboration with companies, so when I started
working it almost felt like a continuation of my
education.
How valuable has your qualication
been so far?
Im now working as a software engineer in
Gothenburg on the west coast of Sweden and
I can honestly say that everything I learnt on
the course Im now applying in my job. My
education in Sweden was vital
to getting a job here. When I
nished my studies I got three
job offers in two weeksI wasnt
expecting that.
If you could give one piece
of advice to students, what
would it be?
Its all too easy just to mix with
people from your home country
and other international students.
So I would say try to do small
projects in each course with
Swedes and get to know them.
It really helped me to understand the country
more and have a better experience.
When I nished my
studies I got three job
offers in two weeks
BILGI KARAN, TURKEY
Masters in Advanced Product Design, Ume
Institute of Design, Ume University, graduated
in 2004.
Why did you choose to study in Sweden?
Actually I chose the course before the country. I
looked at the United States, the United Kingdom
and Germany, but the course in Ume in the
north of Sweden offered the best combination
of facilities, teaching and atmosphere. And I
had heard that everybody in Sweden speaks
uent English. It was also great to be so close to
companies at the cutting edge of innovation.
Did the course meet your expectations?
Yes, because we worked on real projects with real
industrial partners. There were very few full-time
professors, which meant that those working in
the industry taught the courses. Its teaching
from the real world that really appealed to me.
How would you sum up
your time in Sweden and
where did it lead you?
I have to say it was a life-
changing experience. Im
now working as a Senior
Creative designer at Sony
Ericsson in Lund in the
south of Sweden. I wasnt
expecting to stay, but
thanks to my education I
was offered this exciting
opportunity.
Everybody in Sweden
speaks English

SERGEJ KAZATCHENKO, RUSSIA
Masters in International Business Admini s-
tration, Ume School of Business and Eco-
nomics, Ume University, graduated in 2010.
In what way was studying in Sweden different
from studying in Russia?
The education in Sweden allows more freedom
of thought. And for economy students the
presence of business is noticeable, which gives
the training a practical touch.
What has your education meant for your
future career?
First of all, I am working as a stock analyst at
one of the leading Swedish banks, Swedbank.
With a degree from a Russian university,
it would be more difcult to realize my
interest in investments. The knowledge of
the nancial market is broader in Sweden.
Swedish companies often aim to nd staff
from different countries, which opens many
opportunities for foreign students, but the
employers need to be sure of the quality of the
education. Therefore an exam from a Swedish
university is much more favorable.
What are your career plans for the
nearest future?
My Swedish degree has opened many global
career opportunities since it has a good
reputation in many countries.
