Lund University International Podcast

Writing a thesis is a well-known part of most degree programmes, but how does it actually work at Lund University, and what's it like to grapple with such a large project? In this episode, host Fabio Cavaliere (LU Corporate Communications) speaks to two guests about their thesis experiences: Megan Phillips, who graduated from the Master's programme in Applied Cultural Analysis in June 2025, and Julia Hampel, a current student and returning graduate whose thesis for her MSc Environmental Management and Policy will be her third at Lund University. Together they discuss what it's like to write a thesis, from the support and supervision they received, tips on staying motivated, the highs and lows of the project, and that all-important feeling when it's finally submitted.
