This programme deals with animal behaviour and biology from an applied perspective, including problems associated with keeping animals in captivity. Students gain a good working knowledge of the programme's central issues, such as the biology of stress and its role in animal welfare, the effects of domestication on animal behaviour, the physiology of behaviour, and conservation biology. The programme is taught in collaboration with Kolmården Wildlife Park, one of the largest and most highly renowned zoos in Sweden. Graduates may work as animal welfare inspectors, wildlife conservationists or advisors for zoos and private companies.

This programme combines fundamental concepts and knowledge in engineering, biology, and medicine to develop innovative technologies, materials, processes, and systems, with the aim of improving healthcare. You will expand your skills and knowledge in engineering, mathematics, physics, multidimensional signal generation and analysis, and you will combine medical informatics with biomedical modelling applied to human anatomy. With a history of pioneering interdisciplinary research and education, Linköping University provides premier opportunities for developing a fundamental and functional understanding of biomedical engineering. Biomedical engineers are employed across the industry in hospitals, government agencies, and research facilities, designing various materials, devices, algorithms, processes, or systems.

Computer science and technology play a key role in every part of the modern world. The master's programme in Computer Science is based on the need for computer scientists to master the theoretical foundations of the field and to be able to apply and integrate them with other technologies.

This programme prepares students for working with the management of ecosystems, ecological communities and populations, based on a thorough knowledge of ecological concepts and theories. The programme has a critical scientific approach to ecology and to its applications in society. Students acquire training in experimental design, data interpretation, ecological fieldwork and theoretical modeling, both in a classroom setting and during hands-on field work. There is a strong focus on the practical application of ecological knowledge in society. Graduates will be qualified to work with environmental issues and conservation biology, for instance with sustainable use of natural resources in forestry, agriculture or limnology.

A competitive programme that provides students with specialist knowledge in the area of new materials. Huge advances in modern technology and products in recent decades have to a large extent relied on developments in this field. The programme emphasises the comprehension of scientific principles and the development of personal and professional skills in solving practical engineering problems. Students will be instructed through in-depth CDIO project courses, to develop abilities in creative thinking and problem-solving. Graduates will be prepared for careers within academia or the industry, in materials-related research and development. Materials science research activities at Linköping University are strongly linked to cutting-edge technologies in the field. Therefore, talents in materials science and nanotechnology are in huge demand, both in research institutes and the industry.

This programme covers the entire product development cycle, from idea to the final product. The first semester consists of mandatory courses in mechanical engineering, such as fluid power systems, computational mechanics, and deformation and fracture of engineering materials. They are combined with courses in product development and project management. In the second semester, you may choose among five specialisations. After graduation, you will have great opportunities for employment in almost any sector of the engineering industry. You may take part in multidisciplinary design processes, or be involved with the generation, distribution, and use of energy; the design and development of machines, vehicles and transportation systems; or the processing of materials. You will also be prepared for a research career.

The programme offers a broad curriculum on communication technology, focusing on fundamental principles of systems engineering as well as the practical design of digital and wireless communication systems. It provides a solid theoretical base in communication systems engineering. Topics covered include communication theory, coding, modulation, signal processing, and the design and optimisation of communication systems and networks. Linköping University is at the forefront of research into 5G, the next-generation of cellular network technology. Our seminal, award-winning research on the Massive MIMO multi-antenna technology is conducted in collaboration with Lund University, Ericsson Research, Nokia Bell Labs, and other prominent partners. You will thus get the opportunity to learn 5G-related topics from renowned experts. We are welcoming applicants with advanced skills in mathematics and a strong sense of dedication.

This programme provides knowledge on the design, synthesis and evaluation of low-weight organic substances. It also covers protein chemistry and biomolecular design, preparing you for a career in the pharmaceutical industry. A key part of the programme is a one-year degree project, undertaken either in a research group at Linköping University or in the industry. Graduates will have the theoretical knowledge and practical experience needed to work with organic synthesis in the pharmaceutical industry. Possible employers include companies ranging from research-intensive start-ups to major pharmaceutical producers with large R&D departments.

This programme provides students who have a solid base in engineering with tools to integrate engineering, economy and mathematics. The programme prepares students for careers as managers or project leaders in the industry. Building on the students' engineering background, the programme provides knowledge in industrial management through a multi-disciplinary approach. It also increases their ability to adopt changes in the industrial environment in a responsible and efficient manner.

This programme offers a holistic view on aircraft design. An aircraft is a complex, integrated, closely connected system of various technologies and disciplines such as aerodynamics, structure, propulsion, actuation systems and other on-board systems. All these disciplines need to be optimised in order to achieve the function and efficiency required in an aircraft. The programme involves a project in the later part when all these disciplines come together and challenge students to design, build and fly an aircraft, or a subscale version.
