It is important that the Lise Meitner professors work in LTH’s environments
Ultimately, it is about creating an open and creative environment that attracts students and researchers, and where everyone can realise their potential.

Knowledge boost from successful pilot project
The Affiliated Competence project is coming to an end and LTH wants to continue using the model that provides individuals, companies, and academia a chance to increase our knowledge and sharpen our competence.

It is time to choose!
The engineering profession is not just for lone wolves, technology nerds or maths geniuses. Engineering programmes provide knowledge and skills that can be used to meet societal challenges and contribute to a better world. Don’t be scared to choose LTH’s programmes for engineers, architects or industrial designers, writes LTH’s dean Annika Olsson [...]

Together with the units, we will make LTH even better, more distinct and more visible, writes LTH’s new dean Annika Olsson.
