Lund University’s graphic profile only applies to activities that are organisationally part of the University. This means that there are no University-wide templates for student degree projects. Therefore, as a student, you are not to use the University’s graphic profile or templates.
However, you are welcome to use the University’s logotype or your faculty’s logotype on your degree project. Download the logotype from the Image and media bank, find instructions on how to log in as a student on the front page:
