The purpose of the Student Sangha Circle is to promote the interest in meditation among the students at KTH. It aims to create a space at KTH that facilitates the discovery and practice of meditation, as well as other mindfulness activities that aid in relaxation and finding inner balance.

Vänsterteknologerna is a party-politically independent association of left-oriented students at KTH whose purpose is to be a safe meeting place and a forum for dialogue. The ideological left must be represented at KTH in order to promote a democratic society at large. We have participated in demonstrations, started a book circle and had a lot of nice gatherings. We intend to invite speakers, organize pub nights and other fun activities to promote left-wing political discussion.

Overallens Vänner Stockholm (OVS) is an assocation created with the purpose to promote the boiler suit- and student culture at KTH and in Stockholm. We’re a re-creation of an old THS association with the same name, which was active in the early 2000’s. We are a pseudo-serious partying and patch collecting association that prints patches and encourages active use of boiler suits, patch collecting, and making friends across chapter and union borders. We organize trips to the larger student events in Sweden (like Sjöslaget, Quarnevalen, Squvalp, Absolut Gotland, SkiWeek, etc). The association board is made up of students from different chapters and associations at KTH and SU.

Membership in OVS is free, and puts you on a mailing list with updates on what we’re doing. You also get the opportunity to buy our membership patch. We’re active on Facebook and Instagram, feel free to follow us!

The goal of Effective Altruism is to help other people. We combine economics, philosophy, computer, social and natural sciences to identify and solve the world’s biggest problems, such as climate change, the risks with advanced artificial intelligence, global poverty, animal suffering, pandemics, nuclear war etc. We apply evidence and rigorous thinking to try to answer the question “How can we use our hearts AND minds in the best way possible to help others the most?

Effective Altruism is a global movement, with branches in Sweden, and here at KTH!

Every Monday we meet in Nymble 17.30-20.30 to build projects for Effective Altruism. A project can be to research an EA-relevant topic, communicate EA-related ideas, create an impactful career plan for yourself or do something that has direct impact. More information about these sessions can be found here, and here is a detailed list of project suggestions.

We also do book clubs, workshops, career advice, lectures and more to learn more about how to improve the world, as individuals and as a society – all to help engaged students to get a meaningful and impactful career that also makes the most out of their skills and interests.

If you are interested in joining us, see our Facebook for recent updates, join our Discord or send us an e-mail at effektivaltruism@ths.kth.se.

Welcome!

Knepp is the photo club at THS – the student union at KTH – Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden. We are a group of students and employees at KTH that share a common interest in photography, both digital and film. We have a beautiful photo lab with darkroom in the Q building at KTH Campus. We organize photo related activities and we are a point of encounter for those interested in photography at KTH. Knepp is a nonprofit association.

Knepp has a fine and well equiped darkroom, in which our members can develop film and make paper copies in both black and white as well as in colour. We arrange introduction courses where you can learn how to develop and copy pictures. Knepp also has a digital lab with computer, printer, monitor calibrator and scanners for digital retouch of images.

We arrange events such as lectures on different topics, photowalks arround Stockholm, guided tours to Fotografiska, trips to Fotomässan in Älvsjö, as well as other events if requested.

Quarnevalen is a student carnival that is held every three years. It is one of Sweden’s largest student events, with over 1,500 committed students from all Stockholm educational institutions. The students spends a whole week in May building their contributions to the carnival, and then they roll out across the streets of Stockholm.

On Union Day you can meet us in Maskinparken, where we organize a festival throughout the day, called Q-nØllan. On site you can listen to good music, eat good food, participate in all the crazy activities and get to know students from other sections. Come and talk to us (we wear turquoise) and get all the information on how you can participate in the most unforgettable event ever!

Instead, the two years between each Quarneval, Squvalp is organized, which is a slightly smaller, waterborne carnival. During one May day, 600-800 students will gather to build fleets, which will hopefully float at the end of the day, when it is time to show them to the public gathered at the beach in Rålmabshovsparken. Attending these events is not only really fun, but also gives you the chance to meet students from all over Stockholm!

The Christian Technology Group, KTG, aims to be a gathering point at KTH for Christian technologists and for those who are thinking about life questions or Christian beliefs. We gather every week in the Nymble, the Union house, to have lunch together and talk about a selected topic. We also invite you to lectures, hand out Bibles and coffee on campus, have thematic meetings, organize dinners, gaming evenings and more along with similar groups from Stockholm’s many universities and colleges.
