Centres and other units
The Department of Swedish Language and Multilingualism (Svefler) consists of the units Centre for Research on Bilingualism, The Institute of Interpreting and Translation Studies (TÖI), Swedish and Scandinavian Languages, and Swedish as a Foreign Language.
The Centre for Research on Bilingualism and The Institute of Interpreting and Translation Studies have their own budgets, statutes, boards and leadership, but share administration with the department.
