LDUC has three main areas of research:

  • Patient centred clinical research                    
  • Health service research
  • Pedagogical research

The research is organized in four research groups that focus on various subjects within these three areas. Read more about our research groups here.

The aim is to produce new knowledge or processes that contributes to improve the health services at the systemic and individual levels as well as strengthen and develop the College’s training programmes.

Centre for Clinical Nursing Research

The Centre for Clinical Nursing Research at LDUC is mandated to initiate and run research projects, including umbrella projects, both in-college and external collaborative projects.
