Registration and voting is now open for the spring semester's Storträffen meet up - Promoting relevance and quality in education at KTH. This meeting is mainly in English.
Tuesday 14th May, Time: 12:00 -16:30

Welcome to the Storträffen meetup VT-24 

As usual, the spring semester meeting on education at all levels invites all teachers, students and staff at KTH. New and experienced participants are welcome. The opening and closing is in the plenum in Q1 where the Dean of faculty and others welcome the participants and KTH's pedagogical prize winner gives an introductory lecture. Most of the afternoon is devoted to group discussions in the classrooms of the Q building. At the spring Storträffen meetup, the main language is English in the plenary sessions, and many group discussions are also held in English.

The main theme Promoting relevance and quality in education at KTH aligns with KTH's vision and overarching goals

What does it mean for us in our daily practice, as teachers, students, staff and management, to design an internationally competitive and socially relevant education of the highest quality? What are examples of how to integrate education and research? What do we at KTH mean by promoting diversity and inclusion? What strategies do we have for developing students' ability to think innovatively and collaborate in order to deal with tomorrow's challenges? How far have we come in various development work, such as the integration of sustainable development in all programmes? Are we on the right track in terms of relevance and quality? All these questions will be discussed at the Storträffen meetup.

Storträffen meetup is not just a meeting place, it is an opportunity to engage, exchange ideas and shape the future of education at KTH. We welcome you to take part in this important dialogue and be part of our collective effort towards relevance and quality in education at KTH.
