中文概述
卡罗林斯卡学院建成于1810年，是瑞典著名的医学院，也是欧洲最大的医科大学之一。该校位于首都斯德哥尔摩。斯德哥尔摩是瑞典第一大城市，地处波罗的海和梅拉伦湖交汇处。
卡罗林斯卡学院下辖院系众多，包括生物科学与营养系，细胞与分子生物学系，临床神经科学系，临床科学系，临床科学，临床科学，牙医系，实验医学系，医学教育、信息学、管理与伦理系，医学生物化学与生物物理学系，医学流行病学和生物统计学系，医学系，微生物、肿瘤和细胞生物学系，神经科学系，肿瘤病理系，生理学和药理学系，公共卫生科学系，妇女和儿童健康系，环境医学研究院。卡罗林斯卡学院在干细胞、神经细胞、流行病学与肿瘤研究等领域走在国际前沿。脑科学可以说是瑞典的强项。瑞典作为一个高福利国家，最具特色的是免费医疗。
卡罗林斯卡学院校徽的主要图案， 是一条盘旋在柱子上的蛇——在希腊神话中， 蛇主宰着人类健康。 所以， 每一名卡罗林斯卡学院的学生或教员都以增进人类健康作为毕生奋斗的目标。
卡罗林斯卡学院是欧洲一流的医科大学，以国际领先的科研水平和评审颁发诺贝尔生理学或医学奖闻名于世。学院的核心任务是“致力于通过研究、教育和信息共享来全面提高人类的健康水平”。 值得一提的是：最接近校门的红色大楼，就是赫赫有名的诺贝尔论坛大楼，室内装饰是典型北欧风格的简约、时尚。还有冬天需要吸收日照的大玻璃窗和天庭，天庭中有不少绿色植物，给人一种透亮和富有生气的感觉。
崇尚精英教育是欧洲传统的教育理念。卡罗林斯卡学院在对博士生的培养上，可谓是“体贴入微”，每位博士生无须靠勤工俭学维持生计，每人每年可获得来自导师的12万瑞典克朗的学费和生活费。这样的制度足以确保博士生衣食无忧，全力以赴投入学习与科研。
想要拥有如此优越的学习条件，也充满着无限挑战，正如一位在卡罗林斯卡学院呆了两年的留学生说：“对有真才实学的学子，卡罗林斯卡学院是天堂；对想混一张文凭的人，卡罗林斯卡学院是地狱。”
