Why Join LDK?
The Lund's Doctoral Student Union fights for your
rights! We ensure that doctoral student voices are heard at every level so that you can influence the quality of your education.
Decisions about how the university should be managed – quality assurance, structures for implementation and development – are decided by elected members of the staff and the students.
LDK advocates for the rights of doctoral students in their research education and work environment.
Supporting LDK also ensures that you will have access to the Doctoral Student’s Ombudsman (DOMB). The DOMB works on a full-time basis with issues concerning doctoral students. You can always turn to the DOMB with any questions you might have about your education and workplace.

Membership or student card problems?
No worries - we will get you sorted!
How do I get information regarding my study activity?
Your study activity (aktivitetsgrad) should be registered at your department. Contact your department administration to report your activity or to adjust it. You can find this information in LADOK (https://www.student.ladok.se/).
Why is the travel discount logo missing on my card?
Travel logos will ONLY appear on the digital card. You can access your digital card by downloading the Studentkortet app for free. The logo shows small book on wheels. In order to be eligible for travel discounts you must have a study activity of 50% or more. If you still can’t see the logo please contact membership@ldk.lu.se .
Why haven’t I received my student card in the mail?
Student cards are usually sent out at the beginning of each term (around September and February). It can take up to 2 weeks after you have paid your invoice to receive your card in the mail. One possible reason for not receiving your card is that the address on your account is incorrect (please see below for how to update your address). If you don’t receive your card after 2 weeks please contact membership@ldk.lu.se
Do I have to report my new address when I have moved?
Yes our database isn’t connected to the database of the Swedish tax agency (folkbokföringen). You can update your details or change your address by logging in here - https://member.ldk.lu.se/en/login. If you have problems with logging in you can also send an email to membership@ldk.lu.se with your new address.
