Our uniqueness

• Product development the key to growth
• Machines in a very broad perspectives
• Focus on both technology and process
• Synthesis, but also analysis
• Components, integration, systems macro
  perspective
• Physical phenomena micro perspective (nano...)
• Innovation and design
• Substantial and attractive education

16
Undergraduateeducation

• Courses in all grades and levels
• About 45 courses with more than 2000 students
• New MSc programs from 2003
• Active mainly in Mechanical engineering,
  Vehicleengineering, Design and product
  relization, and Industrial management programs
• Four attractive MSc specializations
