LiU has its educational roots in the late 1960s and is now one of Sweden’s larger academic institutions. Our strategic enterprises reflect the dual criteria of scientific relevance and of being of benefit to the public.
Education, research and PhD training are the mission of our four faculties: Arts and Sciences, Educational Sciences, Health Sciences and the Institute of Technology.
Tema Q: Culture Studies has received close to 3 million Euros from the EU's Seventh Framework Programme to conduct three years of research on the role of national museums in shaping national identity politics in Europe.
Jonte Bernhard, docent at the Department of Science and Technology (ITN), has been awarded a grant from NordForsk to coordinate the research network, Nordic Network for Engineering Education Research.
LiU will be home to one of the five new national clinical research schools. The initiative is financed by the Swedish Research Council with a total budget of 75 million over five years.
The number of students at LiU enrolled on a Master’s programmes has again increased significantly. This autumn there are around 800 students, a doubling compared to last year.
