Company Description
Research for a wiser world
The Swedish Research Council is Sweden’s largest governmental research funding body, and supports research of the highest quality within all scientific fields. We pay out almost 8 billion SEK per year to support Swedish research.
About us
The Swedish Research Council is a government agency within the Ministry of Education and Research. We fund research and research infrastructure in all scientific disciplines. We are also advisors to the Government on research policy issues and work to increase understanding of the long-term societal benefits of research.
Organization
Our operation is divided into five departments. We have three scientific councils, one council and five committees that decide on the allocation of research funds. The entire operation is headed by a board, which is appointed by higher education institutions and the Government.
