Research centres and networks
Campus Helsingborg has several active research centres and networks. These are characterised by the fact that they act as meeting points for both researchers and practitioners, and that they stimulate research and dialogue across borders, both within academia and at its interfaces with the surrounding society.
REAL - Center for Retail and Logistics
Retailing and logistics are undergoing major changes that place new demands on the industry and on the knowledge of professionals and researchers. To meet these new needs, Lund University bring together research and education in an internationally competitive centre. The centre will build on the education and research already carried out at the university and on the Helsingborg campus, and take advantage of the uniqueness of the surrounding area.
Public Sector Innovation
The public sector includes health care, care of elderly and children, education, judicial system, national defense, public transport and infrastructure – areas that face complex challenges. As demands from citizens increase and resources decrease, innovation is usually highlighted as a strategy to find the solutions required.
Within the framework of the research theme, a research hub – the Centre for Public Sector Innovation – is set up at Campus Helsingborg to bring together cutting-edge expertise in the field. The goal is to create a unique "hub" for researchers who will work with research, commissioned education and collaborations focusing on innovation in the public sector.
