Sahlgrenska Life
New forecast for costs of premises
The Sahlgrenska Life program review regarding building 2 and 3 has now been completed. Many co-workers at the Sahlgrenska Academy have been involved and at this point there is a clearer picture of how large an area the University of Gothenburg plans to rent, which existing premises it will be vacating and what units will move into Sahlgrenska Life.
The university and real estate company Vitartes are now in agreement on taking the project into the next project phase. In parallel, the corresponding planning continues at the region of Västra Götaland regarding building 1.

Campus development – upgraded study areas
In the corridor at the rear end of Café Anatomen, a couple of small group rooms have got new surfaces layers, furniture and textiles. With tables easy to pull apart and chairs on wheels, a multi-function study area that caters to different needs has been created.
In the corridor, a couple of seating niches have been equipped with laptop tables and sockets for mobile phone charging. Adding on a new kind of functionality where students can spend a moment of individual work on their own, utilising space that would otherwise not be used.
The renovation has been carried out during the pandemic and the rooms have been ready for a while now. With more students back on campus the group rooms will be a welcome addition and the students have already found their way there!
