Through the investment in transport and mobility as an area of excellence, we want to create a flexible platform that enables and encourages major interdisciplinary projects in research and education. Several departments at LiU conduct research and education with relevance to the transport area. It is these different specializations, with associated strengths and competencies, that we are now building on by connecting and utilizing the entire university's width and competence in the field of transport.
Transport and mobility - a prioritised research area at LiU
Transport and mobility is one of LiU's strategically selected areas of development that is of great relevance to our society. It is a broad and strong research area for both LiU and the region. The research has three main orientations; the traffic system, the logistics system and the vehicular system.
Research areas in transport and mobility
Several departments at LiU conduct research and education relevant to the field of transport. It is these different areas of focus, with their associated strengths and competencies, that we are now building on by connecting and utilising the entire university's breadth and expertise in the field of transport. The aim is to strengthen the university's research and education in this area. We want to do this by encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration and acting as a portal for transport and mobility-related research at LiU.

Collaboration initiatives
By focusing on transport and mobility as an area of strength, we want to create a flexible platform that enables and encourages larger interdisciplinary projects in research and education. Therefore, as an employee at Linköping University, you have the opportunity to apply for initiatives through this area of strength.
An initiative aims to increase interaction between different activities in the field of transport and mobility at LiU. This can be research, but also teaching and lifelong learning. The idea behind an initiative is to facilitate, for example, the creation of a research project or new course with teachers from several different departments/institutions, but not to finance the research itself.
Previous initiatives that have been funded include initiatives to integrate research between different research environments at LiU, enable interdisciplinary applications, disseminate results, conduct a workshop, create new points of contact between researchers, map ongoing research or pilot studies.
Overall, the selection of grants awarded represents a broad range of research environments at Linköping University related to transport and mobility.
