Diversity Work
Dalarna University's range of courses and programmes attracts students from all over the country and as a result the number of foreign students has increased. Moreover, a large number of the university’s students come from what statistics label ”environments unaccustomed to studies”.
Our basic concept is to be an inspiring environment for meetings between academia and society, and to actively support people’s learning.
The university encounters a heterogenic group of students with personal projects, demands for quality, experience and flexibility. This is why we must handle diversity in an individual way.
The law on Equal Treatment of Students at University states that the university shall, within the framework of its activities, pursue target-oriented work to promote students’ equal rights regardless of, for example, gender, ethnicity, sexual preference or disability.
Dalarna University shall be characterised by diversity: differences develop relations and quality of education.
