To carry out the degree project abroad does not necessarily mean increased costs. Since your degree project is part of your curriculum and you are enrolled at KTH while you carry them out, you have the opportunity to receive student aid equivalent to that of conventional studies. If the degree projects is done within the EU you can apply for Erasmus+ scholarship to cover additional expenses such as travel to and from the place of study. For studies outside of Europe there are other scholarships.
During your degree project, you can still recieve student finance from the Swedish Board of Student Finance, CSN, since you are enrolled and taking credits at KTH. This applies only if you already qualify for student finance. A so-called supplementary loan from CSN can be applied for to cover things such as higher living expenses, travel expenses and tuition fees. Learn more on CSN's website, csn.se .
Please note that the bank Danske bank that handles KTH's payments. To receive contributions paid to your bank account, you must register your account with Danske bank. If you do not register for an account you will receive a debit card to redeem at a bank sent to your home address. KTH's employer number is 505751.
In order to apply for the travel grant you need to fill out the application form. Fill out the form Application & decision re Travel Scholarship/Travel grant and submit it to your International Coordinator.
Students who have been nominated by the EECS School for exchange studies can apply for a grant to cover a language course. A criteria to be eligible for the language course grant is that the language is spoken in the country where the student has been nominated fort exchange studies. Students taking degree project abroad can also take part of this offer.
If you are admitted to a study programme given by the ITM school and do your degree project (master's thesis) abroad, you can also apply to the travel grant. In order to be entitled for travel grant you need to spend a minumum of 8 weeks of your your thesis abroad.
We want to encourage everyone to learn the local language of the country where you are going. CBH school offer to cover the fee for a language course (maximum up to 4 000 SEK) taken in the country where you do your exchange or degree project. The reimbursement is done after you have paid the course fee.
In order to apply for the travel grant you need to fill out the application form. Fill out the form Application & decision re Travel Scholarship/Travel grant, with your receipt from the language course, and submit it to your International Coordinator.
KTH's HR department will administrate the application. Payments are usually done on the 25th, the month closest to your exchange start together with the other salary payments that month. The payment is usually only marked on the receiver's account as "ln" (salary in Swedish). This means it will not be directly evident that the payment is a grant from KTH.
If you are planning a degree project abroad, you can apply for a travel grant of SEK 5,000 from the SCI office. A student who receives an Erasmus scholarship or equivalent or other scholarships for studies abroad through KTH (Field Studies, Linnaeus-Palme or GDH) is not entitled to a travel scholarship. You can only receive the grant once during your study period at the SCI school.
There are lots of other scholarships available, however often considerable efforts are needed to identify one that suits your needs. Below are a number of links to scholarship databases and organisations that advertise scholarships.
If you do your degree project for a company they might compensate you for your work. It is possible to receive compensation even if you are granted the Erasmus scholarship. Please note that you can be required to repay student aid if your annual income surpasses a certain limit. For more information, CSN's website, csn.se .

The grant recipient can decide if they would like just a subsidy or if they would like a grant as well. In order to obtain the state subsidy for studies, certain requirements have to be complied with. The information about these requirements can be found here: www.csn.se.
