Electrical engineering

The network Elektroteknik Linné [Electrical Engineering Linné] is a network for universities, companies and organisations with an interest in electrical engineering areas like power engineering, power electronics, and built-in systems. The geographic area of the network is southeastern Sweden.

The network was established at a meeting on April 28, 2015.

The purpose of the network

• To work for increased collaboration between university, industry and students in the region.
• To work to increase the status of electrical engineering and programmes in electrical engineering in the region in order to make sure that these programmes are available also in the future.

The network's activities

• Arrange study visits, joint seminars and conferences in order to spread knowledge and to establish contacts between its members.
• Create a portal for degree projects, summer jobs and project assignments that promote contact between students and the local industry.
• As part of the marketing of electrical engineering, establish a scholarship that rewards the best degree project within the field of electrical engineering at Linnaeus University.
• The network also arranges the conference Elkraft och elektroteknik [power electronics and power engineering].
