Enabler - Kårservice Östergötland

Enabler of student life

A vibrant, safe and attractive student life does not arise by itself. It requires meeting places, commitment, structure – and long-term collaborations.

Through collaborations and business with Kårservice Companies and organizations are involved in making student life at Linköping University possible. Not as sponsors on the side – but as an active part of the infrastructure that makes student life possible, accessible and sustainable over time.

When business benefits students

All income that Kårservice generated is reinvested in student life. This means in concrete terms that collaborations contribute to:

Rental subsidies for student associations, so that more people can afford to arrange sit-ins, events, meetings and activities
Operation and development of student union buildings – students' living rooms, study areas and party rooms
Safe and accessible meeting places with the right permit, trained personnel and functioning infrastructure
Support for non-profit engagement, where thousands of students each year have the opportunity to engage, lead and grow
A more attractive student life, which means that more students choose to move here, stay here and recommend Linköping University to others

In short: collaborations make a difference – for real.

Student life is a competitive advantage

Research and experience clearly show that student life plays a crucial role when students choose a university. A rich student life creates community, identity and belonging – but also better academic results, stronger networks and increased establishment after graduation.

By strengthening student life, our enablers contribute not only to a better study time, but also to the region's attractiveness, skills supply and future labor market.

Owned by students – for students

Kårservice is owned by the student unions at Linköping University. This means that the business has no profit interest for the owners, but a clear mission: to create maximum student benefit.

When companies collaborate with Kårservice It is always done with the best interests of the students in mind. The business is a means – student benefit is the goal.
