Take the opportunity to learn more about the tradition of wearing student overalls, in a new exhibition at the University Library.
The tradition of wearing student overalls has existed for over 50 years. Despite this, the culture remains unfamiliar to many. Now you can explore the different overalls worn by students at the University of Skövde and the stories behind them.
Welcome!
