ALVA

  - The student astronomy club at Lund Observatory

About us:

ALVA is a astronomy club for students in Lund. The purpose of the club is to provide a place for science students and other people interested in astronomy to get inspiration and experience how amazingly exciting the universe can be. ALVA arranges astronomy-related activities like interesting lectures and talks, stargazing nights, planetarium shows and workshops. We arrange an event roughly once a month, usually in the Lund Observatory building (Astronomihuset)

ALVA is primarily for students at Lund University or LTH who studies (or has studied) physics, but anyone with an interest in astronomy is welcome to join us! No background in astronomy is necessary and joining is completely free. Click the "Join" link on the left for instructions on how to join. Most of our communication and activities are conducted in English, but we certainly reply to e-mails in Swedish as well. ALVA has a page on facebook as well! Like us and feel free to start discussions with the other members.

We cooperate with the Department of Astronomy and Theoretical Physics and if you have any questions about courses in astronomy at Lund Observatory, we will are happy to help. If you have any further questions, feel free to send an email to: alva.astro.lu@gmail.com
