Orientation Weeks Fall 2025

The Orientation Weeks are part of Lund University’s goal to make the arrival of new students as easy and fun as possible. ESN Lund will be participating with a mix of different events to help you settle in town, make friends and discover what Lund and ESN have to offer!

Lund for Dummies

ESN Lund is ready to make your experience in our beautiful little town the best you’ve ever had! 

Coming to a new and unknown place can sometimes be very overwhelming and takes time to adapt. We understand you! That is why we are creating a very special walk around the city where we will show you the most practical, useful places for students and all our favourite spots: where we study, hang out, get discounts, spend our free time etc.

Lund has so much to offer, so come and explore it with us!
