The Institute for Urban Research is a university-wide research centre that brings together all urban research at Malmö University.
Seeking to shape a collective identity for urban research at Malmö University, the IUR aims to create a research environment that clearly meets urban challenges across the globe.
The IUR is open to all research within the broad field of urban studies but has a specific focus on seven themes: housing and urban renewal, urban economics, mobilities, urban ecology, migration, social sustainability and smart cities.

The Global Urban Dialogue with the institute explored how they promote interdisciplinarity, how they attract students to the urban studies and what future developments, opportunities or weaknesses they anticipate.
