Exchange Opportunities and International Collaborations

The Faculty of Educational Sciences (UV) has exchange agreements for students and teachers with approximately 60 universities across Europe and beyond. Additionally, The Faculty participates in several international networks and Erasmus projects.

During the academic year 2023/2024, The Faculty welcomed 76 incoming exchange students. Furthermore, 44 students were enrolled in UV’s international master’s programmes. Teacher education students at The Faculty have opportunities to travel abroad for short courses, practical placements (VFU), and semester-long exchange studies. In total, 84 teacher education students participated in international activities during the 2023/2024 academic year. For student teachers at Linköping University, these international experiences can be reflected in their degree through the Global Profile.

The Internationalisation Committee

The Faculty of Educational Sciences is responsible for internationalisation in the field and has its own committee for internationalisation.

The Committee handles matters related to internationalisation in alignment with the strategic action plans of the Faculty and the University. A significant part of the Committee’s work focuses on managing strategies for agreements with partner universities and supporting the internationalisation efforts of students and teachers within Educational Sciences and Teacher Education.
