Research Group for Vocational Education (FYRK)
Short description
The Research Group for Vocational Education focuses on studies concerning vocational education in upper secondary schools, municipal adult education, higher vocational education and universities. By bringing together research in this field, the group facilitates the exchange of knowledge and fosters collaborations that benefit both research and educational environments. The group is open to all interested researchers and doctoral students.
The group is directly linked to the leadership of the Nordic Network for Vocational Education and Training (NORDYRK). Linköping University is responsible for the network’s scientific journal, Nordic Journal of Vocational Education and Training.
Current research projects and a list of participating researchers can be found on the Swedish website.
