SLU 50 years - knowledge for life

In 2027, SLU celebrates the 50th anniversary, marking the time since the university was formed through the merger of several higher education institutions in 1977. We will celebrate this milestone with activities and events across Sweden. Come meet us, ask questions, and discover how our research and education contribute to our life and life around us.

The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences was established in connection with the 1977 higher education reform through the merger of the agricultural, forestry and veterinary university colleges, the Veterinary School at Skara and the Forestry School at Skinnskatteberg.
