Campus relocation

KTH has decided to relocate the educational programmes and teaching staff at the Södertälje campus to the KTH campus and KTH Flemingsberg. The relocation will be gradual and will begin in the spring semester of 2025 for parts of the operations. From 2027, KTH will conduct its remaining activities and collaboration with strategic partners such as Scania and Astra-Zeneca in new forms.
