28. 28 ICT at KTH - Where we are today (figures from 2009) A strong Research environment Annual turnover95 M Euro External funding40 M Euro Research Groups 30 Professors90 Research Centers 15 An international Education environment Post graduate students 430 Master students 1500 Strong domination of foreign students which may change due to new fees Few swedish students chose a term abroad An already working local Innovation system KTH Innovation KTH Business Liasion Stockholm Innovation & Growth (STING) Good collaboration with Research Institutes SICS, ACREO and FOI A strong Industrial environment Kista Science City with large companies like Ericsson and many SMEs, 500 ICT companies and 20.000 employees locally but low mobility between Academia and industry

29. 29 ICT at KTH - Where we want to go An even stronger Research environment Better sýnergies between KTH schools and centers through platform initiatives More tight interaction with institutes (learning from US and European practises) Strengthened national and Europeans research consortia (e.g SRAs and EIT KICs) Bilateral aggreements with international partner universities focussed on targeted research groups and research centers A balanced Education environment Improved examination rates and balanced funding models A stable influx of foreign students with a balance between different sources: EU, US and far east tuned to realistic fee levels More swedish students chosing to study a term abroad A more internationalized Innovation system and stronger interactions with industry Connecting Innovation Hubs in different European regions (EIT KICs) Learning from the innovation system and industrial collaboration schemes in US Internships, guest positions, mentor programs Improved fund raising capabilities

34. On Engineering Education Here's what we are: A university with highly set goals to “produce” the best engineers who can really engineer! CDIO – our framework for engineering education design What we do well: CDIO development & implementation since the start 2000, now with >50 collaborators Experienced in integration of technical knowledge and engineering skills Our strengths and successes: Systematic program makeover at KTH using the CDIO approach Course level – program level alignment 10 years of systematic use of design- build projects Willing and able!

35. Educating Engineers who can Engineer Here's where we want to go: To the place where the students get what they came for – already from the start To the place where programs and courses are aligned, in good sequence and build progression What we could do better by leveraging a collaborative partnership: Widen our perspective and learn from your iFoundry etc Give students a wider perspective Become better educators! What we want to be: The best educators in the class Recognized as progressive educators
