Mikael Börjesson is a Professor at the Department of Education, Uppsala University, and Director at the Department of History of Science and Ideas. His research spans education sociology, higher education internationalization, elite education, and geometric data analysis of social spaces.
- Research Interests: Marketization of education, transnational educational strategies, cultural consumption, and historical sociology of Swedish higher education.
- Recent Work: Focuses on Erasmus student mobility, global student spaces, educational capital, and elite mapping in egalitarian systems.
- Collaborations: Frequently works with Donald Broady, Tobias Dalberg, André Bryntesson, and Ashley Haru on student choice, recruitment, and institutional dynamics.
His 2024 study on Swedish Erasmus valuations reveals how geopolitical factors, urban appeal, and institutional prestige shape student decisions. Earlier works (2016-2021) analyzed cultural capital in elite subfields and the socio-political history of Sweden's massified higher education. He employs multivariate statistical methods to map educational landscapes, including studies on distance learning during the pandemic (2021) and marketization of secondary education (2023).
