The Faculty of Engineering LTH offers Master programmes taught in English. The Master’s programmes at LTH employ a multidisciplinary approach in an environment of exceptional academic competence and cultural diversity. All education is closely tied to current research and will prepare students for a professional career or for further academic studies. LTH welcomes both foreign and Swedish students to the programmes.
For more information about application, acceptance procedure and degree certificate, see the menu to the left. For information about our Master Programmes in Industrial Design and Fire Safety Engineering please look below. We have two new programmes: Energy-efficient and Environmental Building Design and Food Innovation and Product Design. More information about these programmes will come.
The Master of Fine Arts in Design, Industrial Design, acquired after four semesters of study, qualifies students to assume a leading role as internationally oriented creative coordinators and leaders of thought. They are equally well prepared to become entrepreneurs or enter scientific research.
The curriculum is flexible, consisting of individual industrial design projects, elective courses and mandatory common academics, which are drawn in from specialised faculties of Lund University. The industrial design projects are chosen from a given thematic repertoire, by modular combination from a selection within the thematic repertoire or by proposition of an individual theme within the framework of the thematic repertoire, monitored in coordination with an elected team of supervisors.
International Master of Science in Fire Safety Engineering
The Universities of Edinburgh (UK), Ghent Belgium) and Lund (Sweden) submitted a winning proposal for an Erasmus Mundus Master Course in Fire Safety Engineering. The initiative is carried by Prof. Bart Merci (Ghent University, coordinator), Prof. Jose Torero (University of Edinburgh) and Prof. Robert Jönsson (Lund University).
The curriculum concerns a two-year program. The first semester, covering basic topics in fire safety engineering, is taught in Ghent and Edinburgh. All students spend the second semester in Lund, with emphasis on enclosure fire dynamics risk analysis and human behaviour. The third semester is again taught in Ghent (for ‘general FSE’) and Edinburgh (with focus on structural engineering in the context of FSE). The fourth semester is devoted to the master’s thesis, hosted by one or more of the three institutes.
The program started for the first time in September, 2010
