How to apply to the Sensory Ecology course

Even though the course is heavily subsidised, we are unfortunately forced to charge a course fee. This year, the course fee will be 19 000 SEK.

Places will be allocated on a first-in first-served basis until the maximum number of places is filled (40 places). One can apply for the course by filling in the online application form below.

The closing date for applications is 15 August 2026, although the course is likely to fill before this date. You will get a confirmation from us when you have been admitted to the course.

Part of the course includes a poster presentation by each student about his/her work. Your intended poster title should be included in the appropriate place on the online application form.

If you are admitted to the course, you will be required to email us an abstract of your poster presentation (to Sensory [dot] Ecology [at] biol [dot] lu [dot] se). Your abstract should also reach us by 15 August 2026. Follow these instructions to create your abstract.
