===Education===

Linköping University offers education at the basic and advanced levels via 120 study programmes, 550 single-subject courses and specialised as well as interdisciplinary [[postgraduate]] studies. 
A large number of the degree programmes lead to qualified [[professional degree]]s in fields such as [[medicine]], [[business]] and [[economics]], [[teacher education]] and [[engineering]]. Many of the programmes are [[interdisciplinary]], combining for example [[industrial management]] and engineering, medicine and engineering, or integrating economics, [[law]] and languages.<ref>{{cite web | title=About LiU| url=https://liu.se/en/about-liu|publisher=Linköping University | access-date=2017-02-17}}</ref>

In 1986 the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences became the first faculty in Sweden to put [[problem-based learning]] into practice within medical training and health-care programmes. 

In 2000, the [[Massachusetts Institute of Technology]] in collaboration with three Swedish universities — Linköping University, [[Chalmers University of Technology]] and the [[KTH Royal Institute of Technology]] — formally founded the  [[Conceive Design Implement Operate]] (CDIO) Initiative, a framework for engineering education.<ref>{{cite web | title = Wallenberg CDIO documents | url = http://www.cdio.org/Wallenberg_docs/wallenberg_docs.html | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20050316045719/http://www.cdio.org/Wallenberg_docs/wallenberg_docs.html | archive-date = March 16, 2005}}</ref> 
CDIO developed into an international collaboration, with universities around the world adopting the same framework.<ref>{{cite web | title = CDIO Collaborators | url = http://www.cdio.org/cdio-collaborators | accessdate = December 28, 2011 | url-status = dead | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20120102005155/http://www.cdio.org/cdio-collaborators | archive-date = January 2, 2012 }}</ref>

In 2007, the Medical Programme and the Department of Electrical Engineering, Control systems were recognized as Centres of Excellence in Higher Education by the [[Swedish National Agency for Higher Education]]. Linköping University was awarded two out of eight Centres of Excellence recognized at Swedish universities, with the recognition based on a thorough quality assessment by a panel of experts.<ref>{{cite web | title=Centres of Excellence in Higher Education | url=http://www.hsv.se/qualityassurance/centresofexcellenceinhe.4.28afa2dc11bdcdc557480001731.html | publisher=Swedish National Agency for Higher Education | access-date=2011-11-23 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://archive.today/20120801214826/http://www.hsv.se/qualityassurance/centresofexcellenceinhe.4.28afa2dc11bdcdc557480001731.html | archive-date=2012-08-01 }}</ref>
