Malmö University's strategy 2030

Malmö University is an open and innovative university. We are part of a global community of universities, and academic values form the very foundation of our institution. We safeguard academic freedom and the autonomy, integrity and quality of education and research, and we strengthen the role of universities in society and the world around us. Through knowledge, critical thinking and open dialogue, universities contribute in important ways to democracy, societal development and human rights during these challenging times.

Malmö University is positioned in the heart of our city and in the middle of a dynamic knowledge region, which contributes to our visibility and attractiveness, and creates a vibrant, international environment.

We conduct diverse, high-quality and socially relevant education and research. Our strengths lie in our curious, multi and interdisciplinary approaches, which are reflected in the breadth of our research and ability to respect and draw on different academic fields. We offer academic professional training programmes of importance to society and high-profile research-based general programmes and courses. 

Malmö University is a socially and globally engaged university: we address societal challenges through education and research and create solutions through innovation and close collaboration with partners outside academia. We contribute to sustainable development through education, research and collaboration, and by drawing on the commitment and knowledge of our staff and students. All levels of our operations integrate efforts to minimise our impact on the environment and climate.

Diversity among our staff and students is a strength; we work actively to combat discrimination and promote equal rights and opportunities. At our inclusive University all staff and students contribute, and knowledge and experience are engaged through collaboration, collegiality and established processes to integrate student influence.
