Climbing world university rankings

Linköping University is one of Sweden's largest universities, with 27,000 national and international students each year. We are a reseach-based university, innovative and ground-breaking in our inter-disciplinary approach to education and reseach. Steadily climbing, LiU is now at no. 282 on the QS World Ranking, which makes us in the top two percent. And we are aiming higher.

I like that LiU is a modern university, which results in the opportunity to change and invent things.

Back to LiU for wedding photos

It was in January 2014 that two students arrived in Linköping as exchange students from two different universities in Singapore. Now in the summer of 2017, they are back to take their ‘pre-wedding photographs’. 

High number of applicants to Summer Academy 2017

Summer Academy 2017 is in full swing. This year the courses attracted a large number of applicants. We spoke to four students two weeks into their four week stay in Sweden. 

A farewell to LiU

The entrance hall at Kårhuset kollektivet was packed with folk waiting for this year’s Farewell Ceremony. International master’s students with their families and friends spent time socialising before the farewell ceremony.
