Student information for current students at the Department of History

For students already admitted and registered for courses in History

The teachers at the department use the web-based learning portal Canvas for every course. You log on to Canvas with your Student account, the same that you use to log on to the Student Portal.

Use the Student Portal Ladok to register, view course registrations and academic results, print certificates or transcripts of records, gain access to the e-library, as well as to access the student email account. This student email is used for all communication between the lecturer and students.

Registrations for our English courses are made as web registration on the Student Portal or at the reception at the department. The introduction meeting is mandatory, contact the department if prevented to attend. The teacher will inform you of all course related information such as course curriculum, schedules, literature, rules and regulations.

The literature list and syllabus are also found on the relevant course website. Please note that the Library guide for History on the course website is only available in Swedish. You can use the English version from Archaeology and ancient history instead, to inform yourself on how to get a library card, on academic conduct & reference management, where and how to search for information & encyclopaedias of interest.

Grading scales at Lund University

At Lund University, there are five different grading scales. The relevant faculty board decides which grading scale is to be used for which course. This means that one degree or transcript may include courses with different grading scales. Please note that no overall grade is given for the degree and that the faculties generally do not provide grade conversions.  For further information, contact the academic advisor.
