With a broad academic spectrum, the faculty brings together over 14,000 students. You may choose from as many as 36 different degree programmes and 400 single-subject courses. We offer programmes and courses in both established and pioneering, forward-thinking areas. Here, you can, for example, study to become a psychologist, business economist, social worker, urban planner, information systems analyst, or HR specialist. Alternatively, you may specialise in history, environment and climate, cognitive science, philosophy, global studies, migration, and communication. Those wishing to further develop within their profession and build upon their education will also find suitable opportunities here.
We take pride in the research conducted within the faculty’s disciplines. For many, Linköping University is synonymous with interdisciplinarity, where researchers from various fields are given the opportunity to meet and together create creative, boundary-crossing research. At the five departments affiliated with the faculty, research is conducted in areas such as working life, leadership, disabilities, mental health, child development, thematic research on environment, gender, children, technology and social change, historical studies, statistics and data analysis, behavioural economics, digitalisation, and much more.

The activities we pursue and develop are an important part of the vision we have adopted for 2030: to be a boundary-crossing, curious, and relevant faculty. We remain committed to transcending both knowledge and national boundaries in our education and research, and we see it as our task to further stimulate curiosity throughout our operations and to be a relevant actor in society.
