KDE for studentar

Studer med KDE.

Make computers fun again

KDE Software helps you study more efficiently, use your devices the way you want and have fun in the process.

Plasma is an Operating System that adapts to you

Get rid of distractions

Plasma lets you learn and work without interruption. It doesn't force unwanted apps on you, it doesn't show you ads or promotions, and it lets you update whenever you want (e.g. not before a big deadline).

Customize your workspace

You can customize your desktop with widgets, like a calculator; clock and calendar to keep track of time; clipboard manager; dictionary; weather report; application launcher, and more.

Get more out of your PC

If you have an older device, don't throw it away! Unlike other operating systems, Plasma is lightweight enough to offer a pleasant and snappy experience even on old hardware.

Mentorship Program

KDE's mentorship programs give you the chance to acquire first-hand experience contributing to a free software project. In the process, you'll gain valuable insights into cutting-edge technologies and build your network of contacts in the IT world. Becoming a valued member of KDE is a great way to jump-start your career in the tech industry!

Since 2013, the KDE Student Program has been running Season of KDE, a program similar to, but not quite the same as Google Summer of Code. Season of KDE offers an opportunity to everyone (not just students) to participate in both code and non-code projects that contribute to the KDE ecosystem.

Organized by Google, Google Summer of Code is a global, online program focused on bringing new contributors into open source software development. KDE has participated in Google Summer of Code for every year of its existence.

In the past few years, SoK and GSoC participants have not only contributed new application features, but have also developed the KDE Continuous Integration System, statistical reports for developers, a web framework, ported KDE applications to other platforms, written technical documentation, and done much, much more.
