In their own words.
The campus is pretty good. There are several ways to eat, a student bar open on Wednesdays, one of the biggest or most beautiful libraries in Sweden (I don't really remember) and a large building for each specialty (one for the business school, one for engineers, one for doctors, one for communication). Registration, arrival and the housing service are pretty simple and efficient. But personally if I had the choic…
The campus is pretty nice, there's a coffee shop, a library and a lot a rooms to study in. Registration was relatively easy. I wouldn't pick that university again, because I have ADHD and the classes at Jibs were a nightmare for my brain : huge courses with so many students, almost no practice, mostly theorical, very few classes per week and a lot to read on your own.

SamuelFull year 2025★ 4.0The campus is pretty good. There are several ways to eat, a student bar open on Wednesdays, one of the biggest or most beautiful libraries in Sweden (I don't really remember) and a large building for each specialty (one for the business school, one for engineers, one for doctors, one for communication). Registration, arrival and the housing service are pretty simple and efficient. But personally if I had the choice I wouldn't choose this university again. I had a hard time meeting people other than the others from my original school, life here is expensive, classes are too rare, the city is not very big and does not offer a lot of activities. All of this combined meant that my experience here was not great and I often found myself alone with nothing to do in my room. This is my point of view based on my experience, others have certainly experienced it differently.
LiseOther 2023★ 7.0The campus is pretty nice, there's a coffee shop, a library and a lot a rooms to study in. Registration was relatively easy. I wouldn't pick that university again, because I have ADHD and the classes at Jibs were a nightmare for my brain : huge courses with so many students, almost no practice, mostly theorical, very few classes per week and a lot to read on your own. I would recommend for someone who's very organised and independent, but if you struggle with mental health and/or socialisation I wouldn't recommend. It's very easy to isolate yourself when there is so few classes with too many people, I know many people who share the same feelings as me on that matter. However, it is a different experience for everyone, it depends on their study method and personality!
PaulineFull year 2025★ 5.0The campus is a little special because it's full of different buildings from all the schools and we have classes everywhere after there are cafes on campus it's pretty cool otherwise JIBS the interior of the school is nice and the H building is also very big, as for registration it was quite easy we quickly received information to create an account all that so it was, the university is good but the city in it is even not great so I think I would not choose this city
SarahFull year 2025★ 6.0The campus is really nice, beautiful view of the lake, the classes are pleasant. There are often associations in the hall, to introduce students. Registration is quite simple but the service center is not open very late (9am-3pm/3:30pm). Yes I Will have taken the same uni.
MelchiorFull year 2024★ 6.0Registration was easy, i would pick it again for the liberty the univerosty give us. The campus is quite nice, I would say the issue would be the city, which is really small
