STAFF EXCHANGEDoctoral students can apply for student exchange and practical placement within Erasmus+, and if they teach they can do teaching assignments in Erasmus+ as long as they fulfil the criteria for the programme. For third-cycle study, the criteria stipulate full-time study at the third-cycle level at an international institution and for the course of study to be part of a Karlstad University degree. Research is not included, but work to prepare your thesis is.
The transition from a closed to an open academic publishing landscape has provided greater opportunities for researchers to reach as many stakeholders as possible with their research. At the same time, the transition has meant that the costs of publishing have shifted from readers to researchers, universities, and research funders.Today, university libraries have a large number of publishing agreements that allow researchers to publish for free or at a discounted cost.

The aim of psychology is to try to understand and explain why people think, feel, act and react as they do. Therefore the focus is on the individual and individual development, but individuals and the way they function cannot be separated from their environment. An important task is therefore to see a person’s thoughts, emotions and behaviour as part in a human–environment system.
Third-cycle education may either result in a doctor’s or licentiate degree.

Activists and researchers have voiced concerns about feminism turning too much to criminalisation. The term ‘carceral feminism’ was coined to describe how feminist calls for law reform have supported the law-and-order agenda in the U.S. At the same time, scholars have opposed this way of framing feminist engagement with law reform and instead argued for a more nuanced understanding.

Why did both of you choose to study at Karlstad Business School?
– I think the biggest reason is that we’re born in Värmland, says Erik Steijner. Moving to Karlstad felt natural. We didn’t have any solid plans for life, so instead of applying for random jobs, we chose to study.
What were your expectations for the degree programme at Karlstad Business School? Did it live up to your expectations?
– Our original idea was to study IT, says Erik.

For some, anonymity on the internet is a necessity. Researchers at Karlstad University, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, and Princeton University have discovered a new attack against the Tor anonymity network that uses the Domain Name System (DNS).
Tor is the world’s largest anonymity network with around two million daily users, and it is used to avoid surveillance and to circumvent censorship online.
At Media and Communication Studies (MKV) at Karlstad University, we conduct internationally prominent research with a particular focus on issues at the intersection of MKV and geography. These include the relationship between media and mobility, how media habits are both created and shaped by the spaces and places we move through, or how the local and the global interact in the contemporary digitalized media landscape.
