Research

School and equal opportunity to get an education are important fields of research. Each year, the board of teacher education promotes research in educational sciences and subject didactics at the different faculties at Linnaeus University. This provides a research basis for the teacher education and adds to the existing knowledge in areas like knowledge, teaching and upbringing.
