In recent months, in the wake of incidents including Quran burnings in Sweden, the security situation in Sweden has worsened. On Thursday, 17 August, the Swedish Security Service raised the terror threat level from three (Elevated) to four (High) on a five-point scale.
Umeå University's security team has not received any indications that the threat levels against Umeå University have changed or worsened. Our assessment is that Umeå University's campuses are safe and secure for students, staff and others to visit, study and work at.
Nevertheless, we encourage not to be afraid, but be cautious and aware. Report any deviating behaviour to campus security officers by phone on +46 90-786 76 00. In the case of a serious incident, always dial 112.
