Linnaeus University's transparencies model

Linnaeus University's overhead model (overhead model) aims to allocate and report indirect costs in a simple and fair way. On this page, you can read more about the model and get answers to frequently asked questions.

Linnaeus University allocates and reports indirect costs according to the so-called SUHF model. It is an accounting model that the Association of Swedish Higher Education Institutions has developed and that higher education institutions are recommended to follow. All universities and colleges in Sweden have joined this model.

The SUHF model is based on the principle of full cost coverage. This means that all direct and indirect costs are distributed down to cost bearers. Cost bearers can be, for example, a research project, a contract education or a degree programme.
