The Research Days take place over two days in October. The program consists mainly of around fifty researchers giving between 60 and 70 popular science lectures and discussions that take place in parallel in different rooms. Since 2005, panel debates have also been arranged during the Research Days under different themes. The event presents a variety of subject areas. This year, for example, visitors can listen to lectures in subjects such as natural sciences, psychology, literature, economic history, physics, law, computer and systems science, German, social work, French, plant ecology, astronomy, business administration and much more. So there is something for everyone. The Research Days are organized to present and make current research conducted at the university more accessible to the outside world. The event enables an exchange between researchers and people who would otherwise not come into contact with research. The event also aims to spread knowledge about and arouse interest in individual subjects, to promote interdisciplinary contacts and to strengthen the contact between undergraduate and postgraduate education. The Research Days are thus important in strengthening the image of Stockholm University and in the long-term recruitment of students and postgraduate students.
