Health Lab
Health Lab is a lab and learning environment where students increase their practical skills by practising for their future professional roles in a realistic environment. Companies and organisations are welcome to test products and services in authentic settings, together with students and researchers, to ensure they work before they are used in society.
About Health Lab
Health Lab provides environments and equipment that allow students to enhance their practical skills by practising for their future professional roles in a realistic setting. These include hospital rooms for nursing students, an apartment where future social workers and sports psychologists can practise conversation, a TV studio for those who want to work in media, and a testing environment for future behavioural scientists.
Here, companies and organisations can test products and services in authentic settings, together with students and researchers, to ensure they work before they are used in society.
Health Lab provides a space for feedback, reflection and testing your way to a successful result, which improves the conditions for meeting tomorrow’s societal challenges in health, nursing, sport, communication and welfare.
Health Lab is an umbrella term that includes four lab environments, all four developed and equipped to meet both subject-specific and interdisciplinary activities: Behavioural Science Lab, Clinical Training Center (Kliniskt träningscenter, KTC), Media Lab and the apartment.

The apartment
The apartment is a fully equipped one-bedroom apartment where students in social work, sports psychology and nursing practise dialogue and home visits with patients and service users.

In the Behavioural Science Lab, behavioural science tests and exercises are carried out to measure things like stress levels, memory and problem solving.
