International Collaborations

Jönköping University has an international profile, and the university is one of the country's leaders in international exchange. International experiences contribute to personal development, and to insight and understanding of other cultures and values.

Internationalization should be a well-integrated and recurring part of all activities. This includes bringing students and staff into contact with other cultures and traditions.

Good opportunities for exchanges

We collaborate with more than 350 partner universities worldwide, which means that both students and staff have good opportunities to participate in exchanges within these established agreements. We participate in the Erasmus program, which offers, among other things, the opportunity for exchange and internship in Europe for students, teachers and administrators at Swedish universities and colleges.

Thanks to our international profile, teachers and students from all over the world come to Jönköping University. Therefore, we have an international environment even at home.

Jönköping University constantly makes new international contacts and participates in various programs, projects, networks and conferences.
