Engineering and technology
Technology is the collection of techniques, skills, methods and processes used in the production of goods or services or in the accomplishment of objectives, such as scientific investigation. Technology can be the knowledge of techniques, processes, etc. or it can be embedded in machines, computers, devices and factories, which can be operated by individuals without detailed knowledge of the workings of such things.This includes e.g. civil engineering, mechanical engineering,environmental engineering and environmental biotechnology.
Research
The research combines detailed studies of the biology and technology of production systems, using systems analyses and interdisciplinary syntheses. The institution has a broad competence profile
Bioform
The project aims to investigate and evaluate thermoplastic materials with bio-based additives intended for component manufacturing by vacuum forming to then demonstrate the application of these
Other activities
Our activities include seminars, workshops and field trips that aim to enrich our students knowledge and promote networking with other researchers, society and industry. We have joint activities with
Biometry
The application of mathematics and statistics to problems within agricultural, environmental, and biological sciences as well as medical science. These include mathematical modeling, computational
Making the most out of synoptic sampling campaigns and large datasets: development of new statistical tools to optimize evaluation of environmental change (UNSUM)
In this project, we will develop new statistical methodology to analyze trends in data from the Swedish Lake Survey to identify ongoing changes in brownification and oligotrophication and connect
Forest Planning
Forest planning deals with decision making concerning the future development of the forest. When, where and how will silviculture and harvesting be applied on a forest holding or in a landscape in
