About the Swedish Red Cross University

The Swedish Red Cross University is a highly renowned institution for higher education within the field of nursing.

We offer a bachelor's programme in Nursing and specialisations within nursing at the master's level:

• infectious care
• intensive care
• psychiatric care

Although the bachelor's programme grant the students the same degree as other nursing educations across the country, the Swedish Red Cross University, as it is afiliated with the Swedish Red Cross, offers a unique global perspective in nursing and health within the studies. 

The Swedish Red Cross University, formerly the Red Cross School of Nursing, was founded in 1867 by Emmy Rappe and was the first secular nursing education in Sweden.

Since the start, we have given nursing students the competence and skills required for global work and also contributed to the development of the Swedish healthcare system.
