Linköping’s proximity to numerous industries and companies further enhances the potential for internships and job placements, providing a practical link between academic learning and real-world applications.

Delving into the specific program of International and European Relations, studying in Sweden offers a distinctive international perspective. Linköping’s commitment to addressing global issues and its diverse student community contribute to a comprehensive understanding of international relations. Particularly appealing is the focus on European affairs, providing a unique viewpoint given Sweden’s membership in the European Union. The program encompasses relevant topics such as the EU’s institutions, policies, and international relations within Europe.

In essence, choosing Linköping for my master’s degree was a holistic decision that considered not only the academic excellence and international appeal of the university but also the unparalleled opportunities for networking, career development, and a well-rounded understanding of international relations, especially within the European context.
