Umeå University’s values are characterised by three important academic values: academic freedom, academic collegiality and academic integrity. Academic freedom presupposes collegial responsibility and the integrity of our staff. These core academic values enable us to accomplish our mission with quality and credibility. This, in turn, allows us to take social responsibility.
Welcome to a lunch discussion about the university's academic core values and what they can mean for you. The event will also be broadcast on umu.se/live.
