Department of Science and Technology (ITN)

The Department of Science and Technology is part of Campus Norrköping.
We research and teach in several technical and scientific disciplines, of which our main areas are organic electronics, media technology, communications and logistics.

The department offers about 200 courses annually for our master and bachelor programs. We also have extensive doctoral studies.

You can find us in the beautiful industrial landscape by the Motala River in central Norrköping.

Research Environments

Communications and Transport Systems

We contribute to the development of society with research and education in the fields of traffic systems, logistics, communication systems and construction engineering.

Media and Information Technology

The research at MIT is conducted in groups that focuses on a separate aspect of visual information technology, but not isolated from each other. The collaborative atmosphere involves both basic and application oriented research.

Disturbance-free city during construction projects

Having a holistic approach to all construction projects in a city is the most important factor for minimising disturbance. But that is easier said than done. This is shown by researchers from LiU in a new book.

A pipette that can activate individual neurons

Researchers at LiU have developed a type of pipette that can deliver ions to individual neurons without affecting the sensitive extracellular milieu. The technique can provide important insights into how individual braincells are affected.

A fluid battery that can take any shape

Using electrodes in a fluid form, researchers at LiU have developed a battery that can take any shape. This soft and conformable battery can be integrated into future technology in a completely new way.

Data and Me - Visualize Your Everyday Data

Everything you do generates data that can be visualized in a simple and fun way. This is what a new exhibition at Visualization Center C aims to convey.

Exploring the universe with OpenSpace

By offering OpenSpace free of charge, Prof Bock and his team aim to promote science visualisation, enhance STEM education, and support outreach initiatives.

Individual cells can be connected to plastic electrodes

Researchers at LiU have succeeded in creating a close connection between individual cells and organic electronics. The study lays the foundation for future treatment of neurological and other diseases with very high precision.

A visualisation centre to understand and change the world

To show what actually cannot be seen, and to make complex information comprehensible by way of images. This is what visualisation is about, and this is the objective of the Visualization Center C in Norrköping.
