The Department of Sociology (House G) will be renovated during the period summer 2023 – summer 2024. All teaching will take place in other premises on Campus Paradis during that period.

The aim of the Campus Paradis building project is to create common, fit-for-purpose, and attractive premises for studying, teaching, research and library services at the Faculty of Social Sciences.

The Department of Sociology is in temporary premises for a year

During the renovation the Department of Sociology is in temporary premises in Allhelgonaskolan on Bredgatan 26.

From the summer of 2023 to the summer of 2024 the Department of Sociology's building (House G) undergoes an extensive renovation. The ventilation system was on the verge of being undersized and the data network needed to be replaced. Also House G will undergo the necessary changes to accommodate additional workplaces.

All teaching takes place in other premises on Campus Paradis and the Department's staff has moved to the nearby Allhelgonaskolan at Bredgatan 26. We are very happy to be able to continue to offer our students teaching "close to home" on Campus Paradis.

After a year, when the renovation is finished, we will move back to House G and will then share the building with the Department of Gender Studies. We look forward to an even more vibrant and lively environment in the building.

Teaching during the renovation period

No teaching can take place in the Department of Sociology's temporary building (Allhelgonaskolan) during the renovation period (summer 2023 to summer 2024).

Teaching takes place in other premises on Campus Paradis.

You can see which premises/rooms apply to your courses via your schedule in TimeEdit.

Study spaces and group study rooms during the renovation period

For study spaces and group study rooms, we recommend those available within Campus Paradis. The following premises are open during the day on weekdays during term time.

Crowded? More study spaces within Lund University at lunduniversity.lu.se/current-students/academic-matters-and-support/overview-study-spaces

Group rooms are booked as via the Faculty of Social Sciences website sam.lu.se/en/group-rooms

Book an appointment to meet teachers, study advisers and the student office during the renovation period

Do you want to meet us for supervision, study guidance or other help?

During the year that the Department's staff are in our temporary building (at Allhelgonaskolan), it is unfortunately more difficult to visit teachers, study advisers and the student office staff.

In the temporary building our staff do not have their own rooms.

Before visiting us you therefore need to make an appointment with your teacher, study adviser, the student office or other person, in most cases via email.

Find contact details here.

Student associations (Doxa, PiL, KUF, BiL) during the renovation period

During the renovation period the student associations' room in House G is not available. A room in another building is available. Although no teaching takes place in the Allhelgonaskolan, the student associations can hold certain types of activities in the building.
