How we work with collaboration

Page reviewed:  27/11/2025

The Collaboration and Development Unit is the LTV Faculty's resource for collaboration support, but we also work on assignments for the whole of SLU. Our overall goal is to contribute to the development of high-quality research, education and ongoing environmental analysis in collaboration with knowledge-driven development in companies and organisations. In our collaboration projects, we focus on development and innovation in society and industry, and our collaboration stakeholders are all those affected by SLU's knowledge and education.

The Collaboration and Development Unit has the following tasks:

Initiate, develop and coordinate ideas, research and development projects in collaboration between SLU, industry and other actors in society.
Develop and implement training initiatives, courses and counselling
Communicate research related to societal challenges.
Create and maintain meeting places and networks
Develop, compile and publish information, knowledge and opinions, and participate in public debate
Initiate and support degree projects and student interaction with industry and society at large
Promote collaboration within SLU and other higher education institutions
Initiate and support work with external funding
Monitor and analyse developments in the world around us related to SLU's sectors
